THINGS YOU MIGHT NEED TO KNOW

• When the controller is ﬁ rst plugged in, it may display a ﬂ ashing hourglass and the message Err 3, this means

that the controller is rotating to the home position. If the Err 2 is displayed, check that the incoming power fre-

quency matches the controller. See the Troubleshooting section of this manual.

• The preset default time of regeneration is 2:00 AM. If you want to change it, see the Level II Programming section.

• The controller can be programmed to regenerate on speciﬁ c days of the week. See Level II Programming section.

• If electrical power is not available, the camshaft can be rotated to the left by hand if the motor is removed. See

Motor Removal in the Maintenance section.

• The controller sends commands to the motor for camshaft movement. However, water pressure/ﬂ ow are re-

quired during the regeneration cycle for backwash, purge and reﬁ ll, and brine draw to actually take place.

• Make sure control power source is plugged in. The transformer should be connected to a non-switched

power source.

PROGRAMMING

The controller is designed to operate by only setting the time of day and the day of the week. The remaining set-

tings have been set at the factory. These default settings will work for most applications.

The controller menu has three levels:

Level I Basic — This level is easily accessed by the user. The settings can be changed and saved as long as

they are not locked.

Level II Professional — This level allows the installer to lock settings. The locked settings are viewable in the

basic level but cannot be changed.

History Level — The operation history and the program are viewable. This information is used to troubleshoot

and maintain the system.

BASIC PROGRAMMING

NOTE: If a button is not pushed for thirty seconds, the controller returns to normal operation mode.

Pushing the regenerate button immediately returns the controller to normal operation.

NOTE: Any setting that is a time display will not show “AM” for times between 12:00 midnight and 12:00

noon. “PM” is displayed to the right of the time for times between 12:00 noon and 12:00 midnight. When

using the 24 hour clock “PM” is not displayed.
