Installer Notes
1.
Control Calculations - With Delayed Regeneration Valves, the control is designed to automatically calculate its reserve capacity based on daily water usage. There is no need to program in a reserve capacity. The System
Capacity Option Setting should be set to the resin bed manufacturers capacity recommendations for a given amount of salt to be used during regeneration.
2.
With Immediate Regeneration Valves, the System Capacity Option Setting should also be set to the resin bed manufacturer’s capacity recommendations for a given amount of salt to be used during regeneration.
3.
System Capacity and Water Hardness displays will not be able to be viewed or set with non-metered systems.
4.
Regeneration Time will not be able to be viewed or set with Immediate Regeneration Valves.
5.
Regeneration Cycle Step #1 will not be viewed with Variable Brining Valves. The control will calculate this value.
6.
Acceptable voltage range for reliable control operation:

The calculated reserve capacity (in gallons/liters/cubic meters) for the present day is recorded in this display by the control. This display is identified by the letters rc in the first two digits.
Example: 227 gallons [rc - - 277]
5.
Previous Days Water Usage Display (Pd)
Depress the Program Button. The next display viewed is not an option setting. This display is used as an aid to the service person in diagnosing a valve malfunction. The previous day’s water usage (in gallons/liters/cubic meters) is recorded in this display by the control. This display is identified by the letters Pd in the first two digits.
Example: 200 Gallons [Pd - - 200]
6.

. The total capacity of the softener is set with this display. The control will calculate a reserve, if required. This option setting is identified by the letter C in the first digit.
Example: 20,000 grain capacity [C - - - - 20]
The UP and DOWN Set Buttons adjust these settings.
7.
Regeneration Cycle Step Programming (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6)
Depress the Program Button. The next 2-6 displays viewed are part of a series of option settings used to program the Regeneration Cycle. Up to 6 steps can be programmed. Each display is used to set the duration time in minutes of that specific step in a regeneration cycle. A step # will turn on for the regeneration cycle step being programmed.
The first display in the series is Regeneration Cycle Step #1. Steps are skipped by setting the display to 0 and regeneration ended by setting the step # after the last active step to OFF, as shown below:
Examples: Regeneration Cycle Step #1 - 8 minutes [1 - - - - 8.0]
Regeneration Cycle Step #4 - 8-1/2 minutes [4 - - - - 8.5]
Depress the Program Button once per display to advance through Regeneration Cycle Step Programming.
The 6600 control has a separate brine tank fill cycle. Your desired salt setting must be calculated, using the blue
(.25 gpm) or black (.5 gpm) rate of refill (in gpm) times your timer setting. Then using one gallon of fresh water dissolving approximately 3 lbs. of salt, calculate your refill time.
Example: lbs. salt ÷ 3 ÷ B.L.F.C. Size = refill time in minutes, 10 lbs. salt ÷ 3 ÷ .25 = 13.3 minute refill.
Steps #5 and #6 are not presently used with the 6600 valve and must be cancelled.
Examples: Regeneration Cycle Step #5 - (Cancelled) [5 - - - OFF]
Regeneration Cycle Step #6 - (Not Viewed)
The UP and DOWN Set Buttons adjust these settings.

Cycle Step Location For Chlorination Indicator (J)
Depress the Program Button. The next display viewed is a option setting. This display is used to set the desired regeneration cycle step number where the chlorinator indicator (C) will turn on in the regeneration display. Actual control of power to a chlorinator is handled independently of this setting using a microswitch or Timed Aux. Output.
This option setting is identified by the letter J in the first digit.
Examples: No Chlorinator Installed -

The UP and DOWN Set Buttons adjust this value.
9.
Regeneration Day Override (A)
Depress the Program Button. The next display viewed is a option setting. This display is used to set a regeneration day override. The Regeneration Day Override Option Setting sets the maximum amount of time (in days) the softener can be in service without a regeneration, regardless of the volume of water used or the lack of a sensor signal. Regeneration begins at the set regeneration time. An OFF setting will cancel this option with all regeneration types except Timeclock Regeneration. This option setting is identified by the letter A in the first digit.
Examples: Override every 7 days -
Cancel setting -
[A - - - - - 7]
[A - - - OFF]
The UP and DOWN Set Buttons adjust this value.
10. Volume Override (b)
Depress the Program Button. The next display viewed is an option setting. This display is used to set a volume override. The Volume Override Option Setting is used to set the maximum amount of water that can be used before a regeneration cycle is called for. When this feature is used with delayed regeneration systems, it will be up to the programmer to determine a reserve capacity. The control will no longer keep track of the reserve capacity. This option is typically used to bypass standard reserve or capacity calculations made by the control. This option setting is identified by the letter b in the first digit.
Examples: Override every 700 gallons [b - - - 700]
Override cancelled - [b - - - OFF]
The UP and DOWN Set Buttons adjust this value.

Meter Delayed.
The control will determine that a regeneration is required when the available volume of softened water drops to or below the reserve capacity. Regeneration is to begin immediately at the set Regeneration Time only when service flow has not been detected. Regeneration is to be to delayed, in two 10 minute sections, for up to an additional 20 minutes, with service flow. Regeneration then to begin immediately. There will not be a delay if the Volume Remaining zero.
