..................................................AUTOMATIC WATER SOFTENER
MW-40 DEMAND TIMER FEATURES, SETTINGS, AND SERVICE
NOTE: SEE PAGES 10 and 11 TO SET THE TIMER TO THE CORRECT TIME OF DAY, AND WATER HARDNESS NUMBER.
NORMAL OPERATION, TIMER DISPLAY......................................................................................
During normal operation, the
present time of day, and AM or
PM, show in the time display area.
When the demand computer
determines a regeneration is
needed, RECHARGE TONIGHT
begins to flash in the display,
along with the present time. RECHARGE TONIGHT flashes until
the next regeneration start time, then
changes to RECHARGE NOW, which
flashes until the regeneration is over.
The display also shows the current
cycle in the regeneration process.
When the valve is in transition
between cycles, both indicators flash.
feature: OTHER DATA DISPLAYS.................................................................................................
With repeated presses of the DATA button, you can scan
through four displays of operational information. This data
appears in the bottom portion of
the display area. These are:
CAPACITY (remaining) - This is
the percentage of water softening
capacity remaining. Immediately
after a regeneration, 100% shows.
Then, as water is used, the
percentage decreases until the
next
regeneration. During
regenerations, the percentage
increments upward.
NOTE: Zero (0%) shows until after the first regeneration
begins, after connecting to electrical power.
FLOW RATE, GPM* - When using
soft water, this display shows the
gallon per minute flow rate
passing through the softener. Zero
shows if water is not in use.
GALLONS* TODAY - Each day,
beginning at midnight, the timer
keeps a running count of the total
gallons of water passing through
the softener.
AVERAGE DAILY GALLONS* -
The figure displayed is the
average gallons of water used by
the household each day, over the
past 7 day period.
*If preferred, you can set the timer to show the reading in liters instead of gallons, see page 20. If gallons today, or
average daily gallons exceeds 1999, a (x 10) indicator appears. This means you must multiply the number shown
times 10.
Feature: OPTIONAL RECHARGE CONTROLS .............................................................................
Sometimes, a manually started regeneration (recharge) may
be desired, or needed. Two examples are:
… You have used more water than usual (house guests, extra
washing, etc.) and you may run out of soft water before the
next regeneration. … You did not refill the storage tank with salt before it was all
gone.
Use one of the following features to start a regeneration
immediately, or at the next preset regeneration start time.
