Familiarization Modes of Operation Manual Regeneration Pressing and holding the regen button for 3 seconds will initiate an immediate regeneration. The beeper is to give one beep at the start of manual regeneration (when the motor starts to turn). In delay mode, pressing and releasing the regen button will light the regen icon for regeneration to occur at the set delay time. Pressing and releasing the regen button again will turn off the regen icon.
Programming The Culligan® AccuSoft® Plus circuit board controls all of the filter functions. These settings are pro grammed at the time of installation. The following is a list of all the microprocessor functions, in the event that any of the settings need to be adjusted. 1. Beeper Setting - This setting is used to turn the beeper on or off for each key press actuation. The display will show “bEEP X” where X is either “Y” or “N”. The “Y” or “N” will be toggled with the “+” and “-” keys.
Programming (cont.) 4. Backwash Time - This setting is used to program the backwash. The time of the cycle is kept in minutes. The display will show the “BACKWASH” and “MINS” icons and the cycle time in the right most digits. Adjust the value with the “+” or “-” keys. Pressing the “Status” key will save the setting and move to the next programming step. 10 BACKWASH 5. Pause Cycle - This setting is used to set the time in minutes for brine drain/slow rinse cycle.
If ALL of the days were set to “no”, then specific day of week regens will be canceled and will appear as shown in Regeneration Interval above, and the interval will be set in number of days. Pressing the “STATUS” key saves the setting and advances to the next programming step. Programming (cont.)
