Figure 6: Eclipse 5 DC Power Supply

Located near the output cord, there is a green LED that is illuminated when the DC Power Supply is supplying 26VDC power.
If the LED is not illuminated, there is no input power available. The Power Supply contains protection circuits for output over-
current, input over-voltage, and internal over-temperature conditions. If any of these conditions exist, output power will be
interrupted and the LED will turn off. These three conditions are self-resetting, and output power will resume when protection
circuits fall back into acceptable operating ranges.

The Eclipse 5 will run at all flow settings when being operated with the DC power supply in a vehicle including 3.0LPM on
continuous flow and 192mL in pulse mode. The Eclipse 5 will charge the power cartridge while being operated with the DC
power supply while running at 2.0LPM or below with continuous flow. The power cartridge can charge at all pulse flow rates,
however charging functionality may stop depending on the breathing rate of the user. If the Eclipse 5 power cartridge is being
charged, the battery symbol will display with a waterfall animation. However, if the power cartridge is not charging then the
battery symbol will remain steady and display the current charge capacity.

DO NOT use the DC supply to power the Eclipse 5 once the vehicle’s engine is turned off as this may drain the car’s battery.
