Solar Powered Control Valve, please refer to Page 5 of the SP
Manual. Regeneration and Error
Screens: – Regen Screen: Displays the time remaining in the
current cycle. Pressing REGEN advances to the next cycle. – Error
Screen: Alternately flashes “Err” and an error code every 3
seconds. Clear by disconnecting the power supply at the PC board
and reconnecting, or press NEXT and REGEN simultaneously for 3
seconds. In Alternator Systems, when a unit is waiting to initiate
the first cycle step of regeneration, “REGEN Pndg” is displayed.

Standby state. Button Operation and
Function: – Scroll Button: Scrolls to the next display. –
REGEN Button: Pressing once and releasing will schedule a
regeneration at the preset delayed regeneration time. Pressing
again and releasing will cancel the regeneration. Pressing and
holding for 3 seconds will initiate an immediate regeneration.
Pressing while in regeneration will advance to the next cycle.

The user can initiate manual regeneration. The user has the option to request the manual regeneration at the delayed regeneration time or to have the regeneration occur immediately: 1. Pressing and releasing the REGEN button. ” REGEN TODAY” will flash on the display and the regeneration will occur at the
delayed regeneration time. The user can cancel the request by pressing and releasing the REGEN button. 2. Pressing and holding the REGEN button for approximately 3 seconds will immediately start the regeneration. The user cannot
cancel this request, except by resetting the control by pressing NEXT and REGEN simultaneously for 3 seconds.

User Displays
When the system is operating, one of five displays may be shown. Pressing NEXT will alternate between the displays shown below.
User 1
Typical user display. Shows volume remaining to regeneration. This screen will not be viewed if the control is set for time-clock operation.
User 2
Displays number of days to next regeneration. Only displayed if control is set for time-clock operation.
User 3
Flow Rate. Displays present flow rate. Not viewed (along with SOFTENING or FILTERING Icon) if ALT A or ALT b is set in CONFIGURATION 4 and the valve is currently in Standby. When 1.0T is set in CONFIGURATION 1, the display will indicate the tank currently in Service (“A” or “b”) in the leftmost digit.
User 4
Displays total volume in gallons since last reset. If a meter is not used this display will be shown but 0 will be displayed. PRESS FOR 3 SECONDS TO RESET TO 0.
User 5
Shows current time. When FILL is displayed, the battery pack is being charged.
Setting Time of Day Push NEXT until time of day screen is displayed. Press and hold until SET TIME is displayed and the hour flashes once. Press or until the correct hour is displayed.
Then press NEXT. The minutes will flash. Press or until the correct minute is displayed.
Press NEXT to return to the User Displays. Time of day should only need to be set after power outages lasting more than 8 hours, if the battery has been depleted and a power outage occurs, or when daylight saving time begins or ends. If a power outage lasting more than 8 hours occurs, the time of day will flash on and off which indicates the time of day should be reset. If a power outage lasts less than 8 hours and the time of day flashes on and off, the time of day should be reset and the battery replaced.

Configuration Settings
Step 1CS Press NEXT and simultaneously for 5 seconds and release. Press NEXT and simultaneously for 5 seconds and release. If the screen in Step 2CS does not appear, the lock on the valve is activated. To unlock, press , NEXT, and REGEN in sequence, then press NEXT and simultaneously for 5 seconds and release. Press NEXT and simultaneously for 5 seconds and release.
Step 2CS
Step 2CS Use or to select 1.0 for 1″ valve, 1.25 for 1.25″ valve, 1.5 for 1.5″ valve, 2.0 for 2″ valve or 1.0T for twin valve. Press NEXT to go to Step 3CS. Press REGEN to exit Configuration Settings.
Step 3CS
Step 3CS If 1.5 or 2.0 is selected in Step 2CS, an additional screen will appear. It is used to select which size flow meter is to be used with the valve, 1.0r, 1.5, 2.0 or 3.0. Variable meter pulses of 0.1-150.0 PPG can also be selected. Press NEXT to go to Step 4CS. Press REGEN to return to the previous step.
Step 4CS
Step 4CS Selecting the use of an outside signal to initiate a regeneration: Selection only matters if a connection is made to the two pin connector labeled DP SWITCH located on the printed circuit board. Following is an explanation of the options: oFF – feature not used NOTE: In a twin alternating system each control must have a separate dP signal or dP switch. One dP signal or one dP switch cannot be used for both controls. on0 If the dP switch is closed for an accumulative time of 2 minutes a regeneration will be signaled to the unit. In a twin alternating system the MAV will transition first to switch units so that the signaled unit can start regeneration. After the MAV has fully transitioned, the regeneration begins immediately. Note: For WS1 WS1.5 control valves programmed for twin alternating: if the dP function “on0” is set, the Delayed Rinse and Fill feature is not available. dEL If the dP switch is closed for an accumulative time of 2 minutes a regeneration will occur at the scheduled delayed regeneration time. In a twin alternating system once the dP switch is triggered the PC Board will display “REGEN TODAY” and when the delayed regen time comes the control will switch tanks and the triggered unit will then go into regeneration. Note: For WS1 WS1.5 control valves programmed for twin alternating: if the dP function “dEL” is set, the Delayed Rinse and Fill feature is not available. HoLd If the dP switch is closed a regeneration will be prevented from occurring while there is switch closure.Inatwin alternatingsystemtheregenerationofaunitcanbepreventeduponswitchclosure.Ifthe unit depletes the capacity down to zero, it will not be allowed to switch tanks to regenerate until the switch is open. Note: For WS1 WS1.5 control valves programmed for twin alternating the Delayed Rinse and Fill feature can be set. Press NEXT to go to Step 5CS. Press REGEN to return to previous step.

Step 5CS
Step 5CS This display will not appear if 1.0T was selected in Step
2CS. Allows selection of one of the following using or : · the Control Valve to have no hard water bypass; or · the Control Valve to have a separate source during the regeneration cycle.
Select OFF when none of these features are used.
Only use Clack No Hard Water Bypass Valves or Clack Motorized Alternating Valves (MAV) with these selections. Clack No Hard Water Bypass Valves (1″ or 1.25″ V3070FF or V3070FM) are not designed to be used with the alternator or separate source functions.
Configuring the Control Valve for No Hard Water Bypass Operation:
Select nHbP for control operation. For no hard water bypass operation the three wire communication cable is not used.
Selection requires that a connection to MAV or a Clack No Hard Water Bypass Valve is made to the two pin connector labeled MAV located on the printed circuit board. If using a MAV, the A port of the MAV must be plugged and the valve outlet connected to the B port. When set to nHbP the MAV will be driven closed before the first regeneration cycle that is not FILL or SOFTENING or FILTERING, and be driven open after the last regeneration cycle that is not FILL.
NOTE: If the control valve enters into an error state during regeneration mode, the no hard water bypass valve will return to the open Position, if not already there.
Configuring the Control Valve for Separate Source Operation:
Select SEPS for control operation. For separate source operation the three wire communication cable is not used.
Selection requires that a connection to a Clack Motorized Alternator Valve (MAV) is made to the two pin connector labeled MAV located on the printed circuit board. The C port of the MAV must be connected to the valve inlet and the A port connected to the separate source used during regeneration. The B port must be connected to the feed water supply.
When set to SEPS the MAV will be driven closed before the first regeneration cycle, and be driven open after the last regeneration cycle.
NOTE: If the control valve enters into an error state during regeneration mode, the MAV will return to the open position, if not already there.
1.0T Valve With 1.0T set, a display will allow the user to set the amount of pre-service rinse time for the stand by
tank just prior to returning to service. Set to oFF to deactivate this feature.
Step 6CS
Step 6CS Fill Units: If set as a softener, if Step 2CS is set to 1.5, and FILL is part of the Regeneration Cycle Sequence, FILL UNITS of MIN or LBS can be selected. Press NEXT to exit OEM Configuration Setup. Press REGEN to return to previous step.
