The control valve offers multiple procedures that allow the valve to be modifi ed to suit the needs of the 

installation. These procedures are:
  • OEM System Setup
  • Installer Displays & Settings (either 1-99 Days Between Regeneration option or 7-Day option)
  • User Displays
These procedures can be accessed in any order. Details on each of the procedures are provided below and 

on the following pages.
When in operation, normal user displays show the time of day or days remaining before backwash. When 

stepping through a procedure, if no buttons are pressed within five minutes the display returns to a normal 

user display. Any changes made prior to the five minute time out are incorporated.
To quickly exit Installer Displays & Settings or OEM Setup, simultaneously press SET HOUR + DOWN. Any 

changes made prior to the exit are incorporated.
To reinitialize the control valve, check to make sure the valve is in the User Display. Then simultaneously 

press SET HOUR + DOWN or unplug power source plug (black wire) on the circuit board, and plug back in.
