Changing and indication
of programme values.
The most important programme values can be recalled and, changed if required, by pressing a key.
Hardness of the water supply.
Press the "Hardness" key, indicated by the symbol
, to display the supply water hardness.
Should it be necessary to change the programmed value; the arrow key "
8
" may be used to move the
flashing cursor to the digit to be changed, and the Number key "#" to make the change.
A desired unit of hardness measurement may be selected (section 8 of the programming instructions),
the following are available :-

The controller automatically recalculates the capacity between regeneration’s using the new value, at the
initiation of the next regeneration cycle, as follows :-
If the resulting value exceeds the maximum value of the LED display (9999 m3) "maximum value
exceeded" will appear in the display.
Important Note!
If a hard water blending by pass is used so that the water meter indicates the blended
water capacity, it is essential to subtract the final, blended, water hardness from the value to be inserted.
Example:
supply water hardness = 300 mg/l CaCO
3
, blended water hardness = 120 mg/l CaCO
3
Thus a value of 180 mg/l CaCO
3
(300 mg/l CaCO
3
- 120 mg/l CaCO
3
) must be programmed into the
control.
