5. Add water to the brine tank (initial fill). With a 

bucket or hose, add approximately 4 gallons 
(15 liters) of water to the brine tank. If the tank has 
a salt platform above the bottom of the tank, add 
water until the level is approximately 1 inch (25 mm) 
above the platform.

Figure 7 - Air Check

Open the water supply valve slowly to the fill open 
position. Carefully rotate the camshaft 
COUNTERCLOCKWISE

 until the indicator on the 

regeneration cycle indicator points directly to the 
center of the REFILL position and hold there until the 
air check (Figure 7) fills with water and water flows 
through the brine line into the brine tank. Do not run for 
more than two minutes. Rotate the camshaft 
COUNTERCLOCKWISE

 until the indicator points to 

the center of the BRINE/SLOW RINSE position.

Check that water is being drawn from the brine tank. 
The water level in the brine tank will recede very slowly. 
Observe the water level for at least three minutes. If the 
water level does not recede, if it goes up, or if air enters 
the transparent air check chamber and the ball falls and 
seats, refer to the Troubleshooting section in this 
manual.

When the water is being drawn from the brine tank, 
rotate the camshaft COUNTERCLOCKWISE until the 
indicator points to REGEN COMPLETE. Run water 
from a nearby faucet until the water is clear and soft.

Connecting the Control

The control has default values for most parameters that 
were set at the factory, but there are key items that 
need to be entered at the time of installation:

Time of Day

Time of Regeneration

Hardness

Salt Amount

Capacity of the Unit

Refill Controller Value

Brine Draw Rate

Determine from Tables 1 and 3 what these values 
should be before applying power to the control. It is 
also helpful to read the Programming the Model 960 
Control

 section if you want to set other parameters. 

When the conditioner is operational, complete the 
following steps to connect the Model 960 control:

Connect the control to the wall transformer 
cable. The power connection is located on the 
underside of the control on the left side (refer to 
Figure 1). Insert the barrel style connector into 
the power plug.

Plug the wall-mount transformer into an 
electrical outlet that is not controlled by a wall 
switch.

If the cord length of the transformer is too short, 
an optional 15-foot low voltage extension cord 
may be purchased (contact your original 
equipment dealer for details) or the wire may be 
spliced as shown in Figure 19 on page 24.

Figure 8 - Faceplate of 960 Control

Programming the Model 960 Control

This section covers all aspects of programming the 
control. The control is shipped from the factory with 
default values for Hardness and Capacity. These 
default values will result in a system capacity of 
100 gallons (1 cubic meter). While the control will 
operate with these values, they should be changed to 
meet the actual operating conditions.
