This section contains a detailed explanation of the programming parameters in the 962 electronic control.

P1 *
Time of Day
The day of the week is displayed with the time of day in the far left digit. It
is programmed at P1 the same as the time of day. The day of week will
automatically increment at midnight. This will allow correlation to the daily
usage history stored in L7 through L13 to days of the week. Customer
should use day 1 = Sunday through day 7 = Saturday. Then L7 will hold
the usage history for Sunday through L13 holding the usage history for
Saturday. The daily averages stored in the L-values will still be updated at
the time of regeneration, not midnight. This is required to keep an
accurate record for reserve capacity needed at the time of regeneration.
Customers should understand that the L-value displayed for the average
water usage for Sunday “day one” will be the average water usage for
Sunday at 2:00 a.m. to Monday at 2:00 a.m., assuming the time of
regeneration is set for 2:00 a.m. Customers can reduce this two hour shift
by setting the time of regeneration to 12:01 a.m.
P2 *
Time of
Regeneration
If P15 is set at 0 (smart reserve), the unit will check at the P2 time to see if
the smart reserve capacity has been reached. If it has, the unit WILL
regenerate at the specified P2 time. If the capacity display reaches zero
gallons (m
3
) at any time during the day, the unit will NOT regenerate until
the specified P2 time is reached.
If P15 is set at 1 (fixed reserve), the unit will check at the P2 time to see if
the fixed reserve capacity (P16) has been reached. If it has, the unit WILL
regenerate at the specified P2 time. If the capacity display reaches zero
gallons (m
3
) at any time during the day, the unit will NOT regenerate until
the specified P2 time is reached.
If P15 is set at 2 (smart reserve with immediate regen), the unit will check
at the P2 time to see if the smart capacity has been reached. If it has, the
unit will regenerate at the specified P2 time. If the capacity display
reaches zero gallons (m
3
) at any time during the day, the unit WILL
regenerate immediately. It will ALSO continue checking at the specified
P2 time to see if the smart reserve capacity has been reached, initiating a
regeneration at the P2 time if it has.
If P15 is set at 3 (fixed reserve with immediate regen), the unit will check
at the P2 time to see if the fixed reserve capacity has been reached. If it
has, the unit will regenerate at the specified P2 time. If the capacity
display reaches zero gallons (m
3
) at any time during the day, the unit WILL
regenerate immediately. It will ALSO continue checking at the specified
P2 time to see if the fixed reserve capacity has been reached, initiating a
regeneration at the P2 time if it has. If the fixed reserve is set to zero, the
unit will ONLY regenerate when the capacity display reaches zero.
If calendar override is used (P14), the unit will regenerate every 1 to 30
days at the specified P2 time.
Fixed Reserve:
Fixed percentage of capacity defined by user
(gallons)(m
3
).
Smart Reserve:
120% of the daily average (gallons) (m
3
) calculated from
historical values stored in NOVRAM.
P3 **
Hardness of water
If the 962 controller is programmed at P12 to use U.S. units, enter
hardness in grains per gallon (gpg). If the 962 controller is programmed at
P12 to use metric units, enter hardness in parts per million (ppm).
