Brine Draw Value

Parameter P7 is used by the control to calculate the 
brine draw time. The default value of 25 was selected 
for a “B” injector with low water pressure or an “A” 
injector with moderate water pressure. If this does not 
match your installation, press the SET button and enter 
a new value. Refer to Table 4 for the correct value. Find 
the injector used in the 255 valve. The injector cap is 
labeled with the injector letter and the injector is color 
coded for easy identification. Next, determine the 
typical water pressure for this installation. The Brine 
Draw Value is an estimate of the flow rate of brine 
through the injector. This rate varies with water 
pressure and injector type as shown in Table 4. The 
control calculates the brine draw time using this value 
and the salt amount. The brine draw time is added to 
the Rinse Time (P10) to determine the total Brine 
Draw/Slow Rinse Time.

This control does not use Parameter P8. No entry 
is needed for this parameter.

Parameter P12 selects the units of measure. Be 
sure that this is set to the correct value before 
entering any data for Parameters P3, P4 or P5.

Parameter P13 selects the clock display mode. If 
the 12-hour mode is selected, a PM indicator is 
used. If the 24-hour mode is selected, the PM 
indicator is not used.

Parameter P15 has four allowable values. Values 0 
or 1 will cause the control to wait for Parameter P2, 
time of day of regeneration, to begin the 
regeneration. Values 2 or 3 will cause the control to 
start the regeneration as soon as the capacity is 
exhausted.

When Parameter P15 selects a variable reserve 
type, 0 or 2, Parameter P16 is used to calculate the 
initial seven average daily water usage values. The 
control multiplies the total capacity by the 
percentage entered for Parameter P16 and uses 
that value as the initial average daily usage for each 
day of the week until water usage establishes new 
averages.

Parameter 17 has two allowable values, 0 or 1, 
however, the 1 is reserved for future options and 
thus should not be used. Improper regenerations 
will occur if P17 is set to 1.

Parameter P18 allows the installer to lock the Salt 
Amount and Capacity values so they cannot be 
changed. When Parameter 18 is set to 1, those two 
settings can only be viewed when the control is in 
the Level II mode. The settings will be skipped 
when the control is in the Level I mode. When 
Parameter 18 is set to zero, the Salt Amount and 
Capacity can be viewed and changed in either 
Level I or Level II.

Parameter P19 is used at the factory to enter 
default values. This parameter does not need to 
be

 changed. Using this parameter will erase the 

values for all other parameters and replace them 
with default values. Improper regenerations will 
occur if P19 is set to a 1 or 3.

Regeneration

When the control begins a regeneration, the display will 
alternate between Time of Day and Regen Time 
Remaining. The Regen Time Remaining is shown in 
minutes. The control will start and stop an internal 
motor which drives the camshaft through the various 
regeneration positions. The control uses the 
information entered in the parameters shown in Table 3 
to determine how long each part of the cycle should 
last. The control will stop the camshaft at the correct 
location for each part of the regeneration cycle.

If power fails during a regeneration cycle, the cycle 
completes normally when the power is restored.

Note: 

The REGEN button is only active when the 

display is alternating between Time of Day and 
Capacity. When programming Level I or II parameters, 
the REGEN button is not active.

Conditioned water is available when the control enters 
the brine refill cycle. The Regen Time Remaining in 
regeneration will continue to count down until the 
indicator points to REGENERATION COMPLETE.

Manual Regeneration

To force the control to perform a regeneration, press the 
REGEN 

button. This button is located on the front of 

the control. When you press the REGEN button, the 
control performs a full regeneration of the conditioner.

If you press this button again more than one minute 
after regeneration begins, but before the 
regeneration is complete, a second regeneration 
will start when the first regeneration is finished.

 The 

display will freeze and only show the Regen Time 
Remaining as an indication that the second 
regeneration will be performed. When the first 
regeneration is complete, the second one will begin 
and the display will alternate between Time of Day and 
Regen Time Remaining.
