If the Eclipse still won’t fly straight, power down and then power back
up while holding down the 8 key. After a few seconds, the Eclipse will
ask if you want to clear internal memory.
Select <YES>, but consider yourself warned: doing so will erase every program between 0 and 99 and change
all of the SETUP and LEVELS area parameters back to their factory defaults. As dramatic as this is, it will
probably solve your problem.
Still having problems? Try reinstalling the operating system as described in the Updating Software sec-
tion below.
No luck? Your system may have a hardware problem and you should contact Eventide or your dealer for
servicing.
Formatting Memory Cards
If you are worried about the contents of the Memory card, you should either dump the contents of the
memory card to an external storage device (see page 51) or copy all valuable internal programs to a different
Memory Card, copy the faulty Memory Card’s programs to internal memory and then to another Memory
card (see page 32). You can also do this with a PC equipped with a suitable CompactFlash card reader.
Once you’re sure that there is nothing worthwhile on the card that isn’t
saved somewhere else, press SETUP page 3 UTILITY <FORMAT> <YES>.
Be advised: doing so will wipe out everything on the card.
You might also put a label on the card (using adhesive tape, indelible marker, etc.) indicating that a prob-
lem occurred along with the date. Keep track of this kind of problem and make multiple backup copies.
