Error Screen
Alternated flashing Err and 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.
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
General Operation 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.
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 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. In a twin alternating system the regeneration of a unit can be prevented upon switch closure. If the
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.
SP Manual Page 9
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.
1.0T Valve

If value is set to:
• “NORMAL” means regeneration will occur at the preset time;
• “on 0” means regeneration will occur immediately when the volume capacity reaches 0 (zero); or
• “NORMAL + on 0” means regeneration will occur at one of the following:
— the preset time when the volume capacity falls below the reserve or the specified number of days
between regenerations is reached whichever comes first; or
— immediately after 10 minutes of no water usage when the volume capacity reaches 0 (zero).
