Default Hitec Eclipse 7 cyclic adjustment

The instruction manual for the Hitec Eclipse 7 radio is missing some important information. It didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out how to set up the basic 120 degree ECCPM. It was also reasonably easy to determine that collective range is adjusted using the pitch curve adjustments. What is not clear is how to adjust the range for the cyclic throws. My points of confusion are that the manual does not define the meaning of the ECCPM mixing and how it relates to the other servo adjustments like EPA. It's not clear if cyclic range is adjusted with one of the swash numbers, or if it is one of the other adjustments. The problem is that there is too much throw on the cyclic (both axes), things are binding.
