OPTIONAL CONTROL SETTINGS
The controller display has several options and
features.
LOW SALT ALARM
The LOW SALT ALARM, when
enabled, will sound the beeper
when the DAYS TO EMPTY value is
15 days or less. To change this setting, press and
hold the MODE button for 3 seconds. ON (factory
default) or OFF will flash in the display. Press the UP
or DOWN buttons to toggle this feature ON
or OFF. Press the MODE button to accept, and the
display will move to SALT EFFICIENCY.
SALT EFFICIENCY
When the SALT EFFICIENCY
feature is ON, the unit will operate
at a salt efficiency of 4000 grains
of hardness removed per pound of salt. This mode
of operation is the most efficient setting for salt
usage, because the system will tend to recharge
more often, with less salt usage. Turning the feature
OFF will tend to lengthen the time between recharge
cycles, which will provide the most efficient usage
of water, but may use more salt. The degree of
difference between these two cycles is highly
dependent on the water usage and hardness
at a particular installation.
NOTE: California Regulations require this feature to
be ON for installations in California.
To change the setting, press the UP or DOWN
buttons to toggle the feature ON or OFF. Press the
MODE button to accept. The display will move to
SYSTEM/ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSTICS.
SYSTEM/ELECTRONIC
DIAGNOSTICS
This display contains system
diagnostics information to assist in
troubleshooting problems with the system. See page
18 for details. Press the MODE button to return to
the normal run display.
FEATURE: OTHER DATA DISPLAYS
These models have an option to have the
run display indicate different information.
The information displayed on the top half of the
display can be changed to one of the following:
• CAPACITY REMAINING – This is the percentage of
water softening capacity remaining. Immediately
after a regeneration, 100% shows. As water is
used, the percentage will decrease until the
next regeneration. During regenerations,
the percentage increments upward.
When PRESENT TIME is displayed,
press the DOWN
button; %
REM will appear in the display.
The value shown is between 0 and
100 percent. This value is based on current
operating capacity. Pressing the UP
button
will return the screen to the previous display.
• AVERAGE DAILY GALLONS – The figure displayed
is the average gallons of water used by the
household each day over the past seven-day
period.
Press the DOWN button again
to display the Average Daily
Gallons. ADG will appear in the
display. This value is updated
every night at midnight. Pressing the UP
button
will return the screen to the previous display.
• FLOW RATE, GPM – When using soft water, this
display shows the flow rate passing through the
softener (in gallons per minute). Zero shows if
water is not passing through the softener.
Press the DOWN button again
to display the flow rate. GPM will
appear in the display. This value
is updated every
1 ⁄
2
second.
Pressing the UP button will
return the screen to the previous display. Pressing
the DOWN
button will return the screen to the
PRESENT TIME display.
