PROGRAMMING

Determining If You Have A 740 Or 760 Control

If you are unsure of your control model, simply remove the 

cover and disconnect the controller module from the control 

valve. On the back of the control valve is a silver label that will 

show your model number and version revision.

General 700 Series Instructions

Power Loss Memory Retention

The 700 Series controllers feature battery-free time and 

date retention during the loss of power. This is designed to 

last a minimum of 8 hours depending on the installation. 

The controller will continue to keep time and day in dynamic 

memory while there is no AC power.
The controller will not track water usage on volumetric 

demand controls in the event of a power failure.
All programmed parameters are stored in the 700 Series static 

memory and will not be lost in the event of a power failure. 

These settings are maintained separately from the time and 

day settings.

Motor

The 700 series controller uses a standard 12-volt AC motor 

that works with either 50 Hz or 60 Hz. The same motor is 

used worldwide and does not need to be changed for different 

power conditions.

Power

700 Series controllers are available in two power 

configurations:
1.  The North American model requires 60 Hz input. The 

controller will display USA units when power is first applied.

2.  The World model accepts either 60 or 50 Hz input and will 

automatically adjust measurement units when power is 

first applied.

Information entered or calculated by the controller is stored in 

two different ways.
A static memory will store:
  Media volume
  Regenerant setting
  Time of regeneration
  Days between regeneration
  Filter mode
A dynamic memory with 8 hour retention will store:
  Current day of week
  Running clock

NOTE:   

Water flow to the valve can be turned on or bypassed 

when the controller is powered up for the first time.

Variable Reserve Function

The 700 Series metered-demand volumetric controllers (760 

and 760C) are designed to have a variable reserve feature. This 

feature automatically adjusts the reserve to the end-user’s 

water usage schedule.
A variable reserve saves salt and water by only regenerating 

when absolutely necessary, and ensures enough soft water for 

typical high-water usage days.
Each day of regeneration the controller reviews the last 

four weeks of water usage for the same day of the week to 

determine if the remaining capacity is adequate for the next 

day of the week. If the remaining capacity is not adequate, it 

will initiate an automatic regeneration.

NOTE:   

In normal operation and during programming, only a 

few of the icons will actually be displayed.

1.  Days of the week. The flag immediately below the day will 

appear when that day has been programmed as a day the 

system should regenerate (used with 7-day  

timer programming).

2.  See #3
3.  This cursor is displayed when the days between 

regeneration are being programmed (used with .5 to 99 day 

regeneration programming).

4.  One of these cursors will be displayed to indicate which day 

will be programmed into the controller.

5.  "PM" indicates that the time displayed is between 12:00 

noon and 12:00 midnight (there is no AM indicator). PM 

indicator is not used if clock mode is set to 24-hour.

6.  When "MIN" is displayed, the value entered is in  

minute increments.

7.  When "Kg" is displayed, the value entered is in kilograms 

or kilograins.

8.  Four digits used to display the time or program value. Also 

used for error codes.

9.  Colon flashes as part of the time display. Indicates  

normal operation.

10. Locked/unlocked indicator. In Level I programming this 

is displayed when the current parameter is locked-out. 

It is also used in Level II programming to indicate if the 

displayed parameter will be locked (icon will flash) when 

controller is in Level I.
