Normal Operation
1.
Home Display
a.
Time Clock Softeners -
Alternates between the display of Time of Day and Number of Days until the
Next Regeneration.
- Days Remaining until the Next Regeneration will count down from the entered value until it
reaches 1 day remaining.
- A Regeneration Cycle will then be initiated at the next designated regeneration time.
b.
Metered
models alternate the Time of Day and Gallons left until the next regeneration. The meter will
count down to zero (0000) and then regenerate at the scheduled time set.
2.
Battery Back-Up
(Uses a standard 9-volt alkaline battery.)
Features of Battery Back-Up:
• During power failures, the battery will maintain the time of day as long as the battery has power.
The display is turned off to conserve battery power during this time. To confirm that the battery
is working, press either button and the display will turn on for five (5) seconds.
• If power failure occurs while system is regenerating, the will motor to a shut off position to pre
vent constant flow to drain. Depending upon system pressure and other factors, it is possible to
observe a reduced flow to drain during this step. After power is restored, the valve will return
and finish the cycle where it left off prior to the power interruption.
• When used without battery back-up, during a power failure, the unit stops at its current point in
the regeneration position and then restarts at that point when the power is restored. The time
will be offset by the increment of time the unit was
without power, so it is necessary to reset the
time of day on the unit. No other system will be affected.
