This menu is used to configure the controller to specific 

operational needs. All of the items in this menu may 

not apply depending on the controller model but will 

always be present.

NOTE: Do not use this menu to make calibration

adjustments. Use the Calibration screen.

PASSWORD

 - If a value of 0000 is entered, a

password is not required. If a password is

entered, it must be used to operate the controller.

If the first digit is zero, relays may be activated

without a password.

RESET WATER METER COUNT

 - Does not

apply unless the unit has selectable feed timer.

DRY CONTACT HEAD

 - Select a contacting head

water meter or a hall effect paddle wheel meter.

Anytime this setting is changed the GAL/PULSE

value will need to be re-entered.

GAL/PULSE

 - If a feed timer is using a contacting

head water meter this tracks make-up volume by

entering the number of gallons a contact equals.

Use • key to change to pulse/gal for flowmeter.

STRAIGHT/PROPORTIONAL OUTPUTS

 - A

straight output setting means the optional 4-20

output span will be the same as the full scale.

The proportional setting allows the span of the

4-20 mA output to be selected by the user based

on the setpoint and differential.

LOW DRUM NO PUMP/PUMP LOW DRUMS

 - If

unit has low level alarms, allows the associated

feed timer to be forced off when drum is low.

COMM Setup:

BAUD RATE 

- For units ordered with the serial

line or modem option.

ALARM CALL 

- For units with modem.

FLOW WHEN CLOSED 

- For flow switches.
