-Regeneration Cycle Indications -
• The Softener Regeneration Cycle steps can be viewed
both on the display and also on the valve position
indicator wheel on the softener slave valve.
○
Step 1: Backwash
○
Step 2: Brine Draw / Rinse
○
Step 3: Rapid Rinse
○
Step 4: Brine Refill
-Error Codes -
An error can potentially occur on any of the three valves in the duplex system. If the error occurs on the Shuttle Valve the
display will alternate showing [
SHtL
] and the error code (ex. [
Err2
]). If the error occurs on Unit 1 or Unit 2 the display will
alternate showing the Unit (ex. [
Unt1
]) and the error code. When an error occurs, it is important to note which valve unit
has the error code that is displayed.
There are four (4) error codes which could indicate a possible problem with the control valve:
Error 2
- Homing slot expected but not found. Valve will begin searching for home (Normal operation continues
after valve finds home position)
Error 3
- Encoder is not sending a position signal
Error 4
- Unable to find homing slot
Error 5
- Motor overload (stalled position or shorted motor)
Error 3 Explanation: The unit is not receiving position information from the encoder. This can be caused by the motor not running, or the position en-
coder not sending a signal. If an Error 3 occurs, first check to make sure all of your wires are plugged in completely. Then unplug the power supply, wait
a few seconds and plug it back in. The valve will try to run again, listen for the valve motor trying to run and look to see if the indicator wheel is turning
(only applicable for the softener slave Units 1 and 2). If the Error 3 returns again the valve causing the error will need to be serviced.
Error 4 Explanation: The unit is not able to find the home position. The encoder wheel may be partially blocked, or the motor is not running smoothly
(has intermittent hesitation or has partial internal gear failure). The valve causing the error will need to be serviced.
Error 5 Explanation: The unit thinks the motor is locked. This can only happen when the valve is running the motor, it is not seeing any change in the
position encoder signal, and the motor is overloaded. This usually alerts the presence of corrosion inside the valve clogging the system
-Master Programming Mode -
To enter master programming mode, press and hold both the
MENU / ENTER
button and the
SET / CHANGE
button for 5
seconds.
It is NOT necessary to enter Master Programming Mode. Do not change these settings unless you understand the effect it will have on your softener
system, or if Signature Series provider had directed you to make the changes.
Regeneration Cycle Step Times
(1)(2)(3)(4) Example [1-10] – Step 1, 10 minutes
- The first 4 items in the Master Programming menu set the duration of time in minutes for each regeneration cycle step.
- The step number which is currently modifiable is indicated on the far left screen. The number of minutes allotted for the
selected regeneration is displayed on the far right.
