40 Culligan Medallist Series

Final Start-Up

Regeneration

There are several conditions that will cause the control to trip a regeneration. The “REG” enunciator will light when the control has

signaled for a regeneration. The “REG” enunciator will ash while the control is in regeneration. The following are conditions that

will call for regeneration:

1. When the Soft-Minder

meter has recorded the passage of a predetermined number of gallons.

2. When the time clock has counted past the set number of days.

3. At the preset time, when the number of days without a regeneration is equal to the Timeclock Backup setting.

4. At the preset time, when the “REGEN” button is depressed once. “REG” will light.

5. Immediately, when the “REGEN” button is depressed for three seconds. “REG” will light and blink.

6. Immediately, if power to the unit has been off for more than 3 hours and time of day has been restored.

If “dIP 2” is set to “Id”, the unit will begin a regeneration immediately for instances 1 and 2. With “dIP 2” set to “del”, the

regeneration will not begin until the preset regeneration time.

Start-Up

• Close the main water supply valve.

• Set the Cul-Flo-Valv

to the bypass position.

• Ensure that all faucets at the installation site are closed.

• Direct the drain line discharge into a bucket where ow can be observed.

• Plug the transformer into a 120 Volt, 60 Hz, single-phase receptacle.

• Wait for the control to energize the motor and home itself.

• Set the timer to the correct time of day.

• Open the main supply valve.

• Initiate an immediate regeneration to move the control into the backwash position.

• Refer to the section on manual cycling for information on cycling the control through its positions.

• When in the backwash position, slowly shift the bypass to the soft water position until water ows.

• Allow the tank to ll slowly until water ows from the drain line.

• When ow to drain is established, open the bypass fully. Watch the drain line discharge for signs of resin. If signs of resin

particles appear, reduce the ow. Increase the ow again when resin no longer appears in the discharge.

• When the unit is lled with water, return the timer to the service position and proceed with setting the microprocessor. Refer to

the programming section.

Note: If set to immediate mode as timeclock or timeclock backup, the unit will initiate regeneration at 12:00 AM. In the delay

mode, “REG” indicator will light at 12:00 AM and regeneration will occur at delayed time.

Note: Unplugging the Culligan

Medallist Series water softener will not affect any of the control settings. Once programmed in,

the settings will be stored indeﬁnitely. In the event of a power failure the time-of-day setting will be stored for 1-2 days. If longer

time storage is necessary, a battery backup is available. Refer to the Service Manual for additional information.
