PROGRAM MEMORY:
If electrical power to the EcoWater Systems conditioner goes off, the display is blank,
but the faceplate controller keeps the correct time for at least two days. When electrical power comes on
again, you have to verify clock time is correct. The MODEL CODE, HARDNESS and RECHARGE TIME never
need resetting unless a change is desired.
Even if the controller is incorrect, after a long power outage, the unit works as it should to keep your water
conditioned. However, regenerations may occur at the wrong time of day until you reset the controller to the
correct time of day. To reset present time, see step 2 on page 9.
CONTROL FEATURES:
There are three keypads on the left side of the display.
Salt Lev-
el
keypad is used when adding salt to the brine tank. The level number on the brinewell
corresponds to the number to program into the controller.
Recharge
keypad has two op-
tions: Set/Cancel recharge tonight, which either sets or cancels a recharge for that night
and Start Recharge Now, which will start a recharge immediately.
NOTE
: If in a recharge,
and the Recharge keypad is pressed, it will advance the valve to the next regeneration
cycle. On cabinet style units, there is also a
Tank Light
keypad. This will turn tank light
on or off, and will work while in any screen. The tank light will automatically turn off after
4 minutes.
D
SOUND ‘‘BEEPER’’--
A ‘‘beeper’’ sounds while pressing keypads for controller setup. One beep signals
a change in the faceplate display. Repeated beeps means the controller will not accept a change from the
keypad you have pressed, telling you to use another keypad. For example, while setting the hardness num-
ber, the beeper sounds repeatedly when the display reaches 1 using the (
↓
) keypad or 160 using the (
↑
) key-
pad.
SALT LEVEL:
This feature is used when salt is added to the conditioner. Press the salt level keypad and
use the (
↑
) keypad to reset the level of salt as it corresponds to the decal on the brinewell. Press the SELECT/
EXIT (
↵
) to set and return to Normal Screen Views.
