programming mode to return to the time display.
Manual Control Cycling
The control can be manually cycled through a regeneration to
troubleshoot the control or verify that the set-up is complete. A
manual cycling of the control is accomplished by following the
steps as outlined below:
1.
While in the service mode, press the “Statistics” key.
2.
Press the ▲ key to display the current motor position. If
a flow meter is attached the
display will have a “F” in the
leftmost position, an AquaSensor will show “A” in the next
position. If in the service
(Home) position the rightmost digits will alternate
between “HM” and “00 MINS”.
3.
Press and hold the “Regen” key for 5 seconds until the
regeneration is started. Once regeneration is active, the
“Regen” key will be ignored until the control returns to the
service or “home” position.
4.
The “REGEN” icon will flash
and the control will cycle to the
Backwash position. When in
the Backwash position the
display will continue to flash the
“REGEN” icon and in addition
display the “BACKWASH” and “MINS” icons and the time
remaining for the cycle in the rightmost digits (“F” or “A”
will also show as in 2 above if applicable).
5.
Press the ▲ key to cycle to the next position and remain
there until the cycle times out or the control is manually
indexed.
6.
Repeat step 5 until the control returns to the service
(Home) position. In order to step through the cycles
again, repeat at step 3.
