7.1.2. Additional tips
When the controller is first plugged in, it may display a flashing hourglass and the message
"Err 3", this means that the controller is rotating to the home position. If the "Err 2" is displayed,
check that the incoming power frequency matches the controller;
the preset default time of regeneration is 2:00 AM;
power supply: the world controller senses the electrical input and decides which is needed;
the 700 Series controller can be programmed to regenerate on specific days of the week;
if electrical power is not available, the camshaft can be rotated counter-clockwise by hand if the
motor is removed;
the 700 Series controllers send commands to the motor for camshaft movement. However,
water pressure/flow are required during the regeneration cycle for backwash, purge and refill,
and brine draw to actually take place;
make sure the control power source is plugged in. The transformer should be connected to a
non-switched power source;
you can start programming from the beginning by resetting the amount of media, see chapter
6.4.4. Resetting the controller, page 44.
7.2. Sanitization
7.2.1. Disinfection of water softeners
The construction materials of the modern water softener will not support bacterial growth, nor will
these materials contaminate a water supply. During normal use, a softener may become fouled with
organic matter, or in some cases with bacteria from the water supply. This may result in an off-taste
or odour in the water.
Some softeners may need to be disinfected after installation and some softeners will require periodic
disinfection during their normal lifetime.
Depending on the conditions of use, the softener type, the type of ion exchanger, and the disinfectant
available, a choice can be made among the following methods.
