Introduction

Overview
The Total Eclipse Chemical Management System uses technological advances to create an innovative system that adapts to the electronic and language needs of global clients. The easy-to-read, seven-line screen displays plain-text formula names, customized by language and customer. Formulas and controller setups can be programmed at the controller or with the Formula Editor computer software and uploaded via a USB flash drive (16 GB or smaller) to each controller. Reports on product usage, costs per formula, system settings, and diagnostics are easily downloaded to the USB flash drive and viewed or imported into various financial software.
Designed for maximum versatility in OPL or large laundry wash machines, selectable operating logic allows operation with trigger signals from fully- programmable washers or with manually triggered signals (or cycle time extenders) from nonprogrammable, fixed-time washer. The Total Eclipse Controller is compatible with any Hydro Laundry dispenser.

Installation

WARNING! The Total Eclipse controller is intended to be installed by a qualified technician only, in accordance with all applicable electrical and plumbing codes. DISCONNECT POWER to the laundry machine and dispenser during installation and/or any time the dispenser cabinet is opened.
WARNING! Keep the Machine Interface and the communication cables away from high voltage wires and relays.
NEVER run the J1 and J2 cables parallel with high voltage lines.
NOTE: This manual describes only the installation and programming of the Total Eclipse Controller, which is a portion of the Total Eclipse Chemical Management System. Please refer to the reference manual included with your dispenser or upgrade kit for additional instructions. Electrical wiring connections for supply triggers are to be done inside the supply junction box.
NOTE: The maximum distance for the J1 cable from the product dispenser to the controller is 75 feet. “J” cables are available in 15 and 30 foot lengths. A coupler is available to join cables together for longer distances under 75 feet. “J” cable runs longer than 75 feet require the use of break out boxes and hard wiring. Contact Hydro Systems Co. for details.
WARNING! Always verify all voltage sources with a voltage meter. DISCONNECT POWER to the laundry machine and dispenser during installation and/or any time the dispenser cabinet is opened.

Machine Interface Installation

1. Route Machine Interface signal wires through 1/2 inch knock-out on washer (within the wiring area). Use lock nut on the MI 1/2 inch nipple to secure the Machine Interface to washer.
   Machine Interface| Total Eclipse Controller
   ---|---

2. Connect cable marked J2 into Machine Interface. Bundle excess J2 cable outside washer and connect other end to the connector labeled J2 on the rear of the Controller.
3. Connect cable marked J1 from the dispense module to the connector labeled J1 on the Controller.
4. For added cable strain relief, secure J1 and J2 cables to controller tie-down posts with cable ties (aka tie wraps, zip ties).

Signal Wire Installation
The Machine Interface will work with any signal voltage between 24 – 240VAC or 22 – 24VDC. With DC signals, polarity must be observed, where common connects to negative. The signals must be positive voltages.

1. Identify the washer supply signals. Check with technical service or with the washer manufacturer if you are not sure of the connections.
2. Identify the Mode of Operation to be used. Use appropriate terminal connectors to connect the signal wires to the Machine Interface wires, based upon the table on the next page.
3. If one or more pump signals are not used, they do not need to be connected. Cap any wires that are not used.
4. If you are triggering more than one pump from a single signal, connect all MI signal wires for those pumps to that signal.
5. If washer has a single common, wire nut all commons together.
6. One of the 6 LEDs on the Machine Interface will light up when the corresponding valid signal is received.
7. When using an 8-product pump interface (PI) standard mode links products 3 and 7 to each other and links products 5 and 8 to each other.

Supply Trigger Wiring

Supply Trigger Wiring by Operation Mode

Connect by Operating Mode to:

Trigger| Supply Signal| Signal Common| Standard or Relay| Group| Event| Occurrence
Signal 1| Black Wire| White&Black Wire| Product 1| Group 1| Washer “On” Signal| Only 1or 2 signals need to be connected, because any signal, on any trigger, will be an occurrence. Connect one trigger to the Drain Valve OR one trigger to each Hot and Cold Water Valve, if the drain valve solenoid is not accessible.
Signal 2| Brown Wire| White&Brown Wire| Product 2| Group 1| Washer Hot OR Cold Valve

Controller Mounting
The Total Eclipse controller may be mounted either horizontally (such as on top of the washer) or vertically (such as on the front of the washer).
Mount the unit using the self-adhesive strips provided, or for added security, you may use nuts and Allen bolts or other fasteners (provided) as is appropriate to the mounting surface.

1. Position the controller for easy access to the keypad and display screen.
2. Mark a mounting location that is on, or close to, the washer. The mounting surface must be clean and dry.
3. Join the four Velcro-style strips firmly together to form two pair.
4. Peel backing from one strip of each pair and place, adhesive-side down, in each recess on the mounting bracket. Press firmly for good adhesion.
5. Peel backing from opposite strips and press mounting bracket onto smooth, clean surface (use alcohol wipe, if needed) at marked location.
6. With cables connected, slide controller front down onto mounting bracket (controller back), guiding cables into slots and pressing down firmly until front and back snap into place.

Set Operating Language, Date & Time

1. After all electrical, plumbing, and mechanical installation is complete, apply power to the Total Eclipse Controller.
2. At the first power up, the LANGUAGE menu follows the splash screen to allow menu language selection. Choose one of the menu languages that are pre-installed in each controller (English or Spanish for the Americas; English or German in the EU]; or download additional Total Eclipse Controller menu language files from the Hydro Systems website to a USB flash drive.
3. After setting the operating language, the DATE & TIME menu is shown. When installing the controller, you must change the Date and Time to the current date and time, as this controls the data contained in reports. The display is in ISO 8601 standard format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM (Year-Month-Day Hour:Minute). The time uses a 24-hour clock, military style, with no AM/PM setting.

Program the Controller using a Setup file (Read from a USB Flash Drive)
The easiest way to program the controller is to load a previously created Setup file read from a USB flash drive. Settings that are NOT transferred via a USB drive are: Passwords (Manager nor Installer); Machine Name; Company Name; Calibration. Those will have to be defined using the display and keypad on the controller.
NOTE! It is important to select the correct PI (corresponding to the dispenser) to ensure proper and safe operation.
A warning message will appear if a controller configured for eductors is connected to a peristaltic pump dispenser.

1. Connect the USB flash drive containing Setup files that were created in either the Formula Editor or on another controller.
2. From the Home Screen, press the Enter key to launch the MAIN MENU.
3. Use the Down Arrow key to move the selection box to INSTALLER MENU.
4. Press the Enter key and input the default Installer Password, 01234. Use the Up / Down Arrow keys to change the digit and the Right Arrow key to move the digit selection cursor.
5. Press the Enter to accept the input password. Select DATA TRANSFER from the Installer Menu and finish the sequence as shown below:
6. When the screen returns to the DATA TRANSFER menu, you can safely remove the USB drive. Press the Exit key to return to the Installer Menu, in order to prime and calibrate (required) the dispenser.

Prime the Dispenser (Pumps or Eductors)
At the Set Prime menu (follow the sequence below) select each product dispenser and use the Enter key to Start and Stop the priming. After all priming is complete, press the Exit key twice to get back to the SERVICE PRODUCTS menu.

Calibrate (Pumps or Eductors)
You must calibrate all product dispensers to be used. Programmed amounts will not run if the dispenser is not calibrated.
Use CALIBRATE (VOLUME) only for medium displacement pumps, i.e.,12 to 18 oz or 355 to 532 ml per minute.
Use CALIBRATE (TIME) for larger pumps, eductors or any flush installation. Press START and the timer will count down 20 seconds. Do not stop the delivery; let it run the full 20 seconds, then enter the amount dispensed. When calibrating the a pump, measure the product dispensed. To calibrate an eductor system, measure the product the chemical intake draws in.
Use CALIBRATE (MANUAL) when provided with a known delivery rate of ounces or milliliters per minute.
