Power Loss - Lithium battery on circuit board provides up to 2 years of time clock 

backup during power outages.  If the power is out when battery is depleted, only time of 

day needs to be reset, all other values are stored in non-volatile memory.  When time of 

day is flashing, replace lithium coin type 2032 battery. 

Battery back-up feature will be activated after 24 hours of power.

Do not forget to reset for daylight savings time.

General inforMaTion

The ProMate-6.0 control valve is the “brain” of your water softener. It consists of the 

valve body and powerhead with solid state microprocessor.

 

The display panel (see Figure 2) consists of the LCD display and five push 

buttons which are used in displaying and programming the water softener settings.

Step 1 - Press NEXT and 

 simultaneously for 3 seconds.

Step 2 HARDNESS

 Set the amount of total compensated hardness in grains (hard-

ness as calcium carbonate) per gallon using 

 or 

 buttons. The factory setting is 

20 with value ranges from 1 to 150 in 1 grain increments.  Note:  The grains per gallon 

should be increased if soluble iron needs to be reduced.    Add 3 grains of hardness 

for each ppm of iron present.  If this display shows nA -, then system is set-up in “filter” 

mode or "AUTO" is not selected in softener system setup.  Press NEXT to go to Step 3.  

Press REGEN to exit Settings.

Step 3 - DAy OVERRIDE:  This sets the number of days between regenerations.  If 

value set to “oFF” regeneration initiation is based solely on gallons used.  If value is set 

as a number (allowable range from 1 to 28) a regeneration initiation will be called for on 

that day even if sufficient number of gallons were not used to call for a regeneration.  Set 

Day Override using 

 or 

 buttons:  Factory setting is 14 days.

• number of days between regeneration (1 to 28); or

• “oFF”

Step 4 - REgENERATION TIME (hour): Set the hour of day for regeneration using 

 or 

 buttons.  AM/PM toggles after 12.  The factory setting time is 2:00 a.m.  Press NEXT 

to go to step 5.  Press REGEN to return to previous step.

NOte: When installing this unit as part of a multi unit parallel system the regen time of 

day must be adjusted to prevent multiple units from regenerating at the same time.

Step 5 - REgENERATION TIME (minutes): Set the minutes of day for regeneration 

using 

 or 

 buttons.  This display will not be shown if system is set for immediate 

regeneration.  Press NEXT to exit Installer Displays/Settings.  Press REGEN to return to 

previous step.
