FAMILIARIZATION 5
SOFT-MINDER
®
OPERATION
The Soft-Minder meter utilizes a turbine impeller to accurately monitor the customer's water usage. After a prede-
termined amount of water has passed through the system, the microprocessor will signal a regeneration. The "REG"
enunciator will light at this point. The unit will perform a standard regeneration cycle at the preset time, unless the
programming option "dip2" is changed from "DEL" to "Id". When programming option "dip2" is changed from
"DEL" to "Id", a regeneration will begin immediately.
The programming of the Soft-Minder provides several settable variables, the Time-of-Day, Time-of-Regeneration,
Salt Dosage, Backwash Time, Brine/Rinse Time, Gallons to Signal and Timeclock Backup, if active. Refer to the
programming section for further information on programming the microprocessor.
TIMECLOCK OPERATION
When the microprocessor is set-up as a time clock unit, the Culligan
®
Medallist control will regenerate at xed
intervals. The regeneration interval can be set anywhere from 1 to 42 days.
The programming for the time clock models is limited to Time-of-Day, Time-of-Regeneration, Salt Dosage, Backwash
Time, Brine/Rinse Time, and the Regeneration Interval. Refer to the programming section for further information on
programming the microprocessor.
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, assuming "dip2" has been set to "DEL":
1. When the Soft-Minder meter has recorded the passage of a predetermined number or 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 set-
ting.
4. At the preset time, after the "REG" button is depressed once. "REG" will light.
5. Immediately, when the "REG" 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 returned.
