GALLONS SETTING
Determine the daily use for the household. Usually 75-100 gallons per day per person is adequate. Using Table 4,
locate the hardness range for your water supply. Move down the column and locate the gallons setting and salt
dosage which best suits the application. Usually two to three days between regenerations yields the best results.
Allow for one half to one days water usage as reserve capacity. Set the salt dosage per the instructions on page 9.
Set the gallons setting on the circuit board. This is done by removing the two screws of the front cover. The circuit
board is located on the upper left hand corner of the back plate. A set of six dip switches on the circuit board
determine the gallons capacity. Refer to Table 5, Figs. 10 and 11 when setting the dip switches. Make sure all
recharge frequency pins are pushed on.
There are two pilot lights located on the circuit board.
• The green pilot light flickers when water is flowing through the water meter.
• The amber pilot light is a latching indicator, when the preset gallons count has passed, the amber light will
illuminate indicating that the unit will regenerate that night.
The softener also has a ten gallon setting to assist the service personnel in trouble shooting the equipment. To
trouble shoot the meter, set the dip switches to the OFF position. Run water into a measured pail. The green light
will flicker. When ten gallons has passed, the amber light will light up. This will help determine if the meter is
properly measuring the gallons count.
