The control valve with a water meter can be set for
Demand Initiated Regeneration (DIR) only, Time Clock
operation only or DIR and Time Clock which ever comes
first, depending upon what settings are selected for Day
Override and Gallon Capacity.
5
See Table 7.
If a control valve does not contain a meter, the valve can
only act as a time clock, and day override should be set to
any number and gallon capacity should be set to off.
For DIR Softeners, there are two options for setting the
Gallons Capacity. The Gallons Capacity is automatically
calculated if set to AUTO. Reserve Capacity is
automatically estimated based on water usage if AUTO
is used. The other option is to set the Gallons Capacity
to a specific number. If a specific number is set, reserve
capacity is zero, unless the value is manually set (i.e. the
manufacturer intentionally sets the gallon capacity number
below the calculated capacity of the system).
The WS1 & WS1.25 control valves can also be set to
regenerate immediately or at the next regeneration time
by changing the Regeneration Time Option. There are three
choices for settings:
1. “NORMAL” means regeneration will occur at the preset
regeneration time.
2. “on 0” means regeneration will occur when the gallons
capacity reaches zero.
3. “NORMAL” and “on 0” means the regeneration will
occur at the preset regeneration time unless the gallons
capacity reaches zero. If the gallons capacity reaches
zero the regeneration will begin 10 minutes after no
water usage.
4
Total time does not include fill time, which is dependent upon the
amount of fill needed. When in the fill mode the system is providing
treated water.

See Installer Display Settings Step 3i for explanations of Day Override
and Gallon Capacity.
The user can initiate manual regeneration. The user has
the option to request the manual regeneration at the
delayed regeneration time or to have the regeneration
occur immediately:
1. Pressing and releasing the
REGEN
button. “Regen
Today” will flash on the display and the regeneration
will occur at the delayed regeneration time. The user
can cancel the request by pressing and releasing the
REGEN
button. This method of manually initiating
regeneration is not allowed when the system is set to
“on 0”, i.e. to immediately regenerate when the gallon
capacity reaches zero.
2. Pressing and holding the
REGEN
button for
approximately 3 seconds will immediately start the
regeneration. The user cannot cancel this request,
except by resetting the control by pressing
NEXT
and
REGEN
buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds.
A unique feature of this control valve is the ability to
display actual water usage for the last 63 days. The
values are initially stored as “----”. This means the value
is unknown. As days pass values are stored as “0” for no
flow or the actual number of gallons. The counting of the
gallons starts at the regeneration time. If no regeneration
time can be set (i.e. when the valve is set for immediate
regeneration) the counting of gallons starts at 12 a.m. Day
1 is yesterday, day 2 the day before yesterday, etc. As
new values are added the oldest history disappears.
Another unique feature is that the valve automatically
calculates a reserve capacity when set up as a softener
with “Gallons
