Time Clock or Day of the Week Regeneration Valves
In normal operation the Time of Day Display may be viewed at all times. The control operates for a preset
number of days between Regeneration cycles. When the number of days since the last Regeneration reaches
the preset number of days, a Regeneration cycle initiates at the preset Regeneration Time.
Program the number of days between Regeneration cycles and the Regeneration time using the 7000 Control
Start-Up Procedures.
Flow Meter Equipped Valves – General
Flow meter equipped valves calculate the volume of water that the system can treat between Regeneration
cycles based on the system capacity which is preset by the system manufacturer in a Master Programming
Mode and the feed water hardness which is programmed in the Start-Up procedure safety factor (Master
Mode only).
The remaining system capacity displays in gallons or liters. The display has a range of 0 to 9999 (gallons or
liters). If the remaining capacity exceeds 9999 liters when in the Metric Mode, then the display changes to
millions of liters and a letter t is displayed as the rst digit. The display then has a range of t1.0 (1,000,000) to
t1.9 (1,900,000).
Flow Meter Equipped Valves – Immediate Regeneration Mode
The Time Of Day display alternates with the Volume Remaining display in gallons or liters. The Meter dot
ashes in direct relation to the water ow rate through the unit. As treated water is used, the Volume Remaining display counts down from a maximum value to zero and initiates a Regeneration cycle immediately.
Page 6
7000 Control Operation and Settings
Flow Meter Equipped Valves – Delayed Regeneration Mode
In Normal operation the Time Of Day display alternates with the Volume Remaining display. The ow dot
ashes in direct relation to the water ow rate through the unit. As treated water is used, the Volume Remaining display counts down from a maximum value to zero. If the reserve is reached, a Regeneration queues.
The display shows all dashes if the entire volume is depleted before the scheduled Regeneration time. At the
preset Regeneration Time, a Regeneration cycle initiates.
Control Operation During Regeneration
In Regeneration the display shows the Regeneration status two ways:
• When the valve advances to the next position, the display ashes the number of that next position
followed by three dashes.
• Once the valve reaches a position the display shows that position and number of minutes left in that
Regeneration step.
NOTE: If the step time exceeds 100, the leading digit ashes.
• Once all Regeneration steps are complete, the valve returns to In Service and resumes normal operation.
NOTE: Pressing the Extra Cycle Button during a Regeneration cycle immediately advances the valve to
the next cycle step position and resumes normal step timing.
Control Operation During Programming
The control enters Program Mode with the valve In Service. While in Program Mode the control continues to
operate normally, monitoring water usage and keeping all displays up to date. Control programming is stored
in memory permanently. There is no need for battery backup power.
Control Operation During a Power Failure
During a power failure all control displays and programming are stored for use upon power re-application. An
inaccurate or ashing Time of Day display indicates that a power outage has occurred. During power failure
the control:
• Is fully inoperative and any calls for Regeneration are delayed.
• Upon power re-application, resumes normal operation from the point that it was interrupted.
• Does not monitor the volume of water used during a power outage.
• In Delay Regeneration types, the reserve capacity is set to 1/3 the capacity.
Manually Initiating a Regeneration
A Regeneration cycle may be initiated manually (referred to as an Extra Regeneration Cycle). There are two
options when starting an Extra Regeneration Cycle:
• Press and release the Extra Cycle Button:
— Flow Meter - Immediate Regeneration controls immediately go into a Regeneration cycle.
— For Time Clock and Flow Meter - Delayed Regeneration controls, the In Service dot begins to ash
immediately and a Regeneration occurs at the pre-programmed Regeneration time.
• Press and hold the Extra Cycle Button for ve (5) seconds:
— For Time Clock and Flow Meter - Delayed Regeneration controls, the control immediately begins the
Regeneration cycle.

7000 Control Start-Up Procedures
Set Time of Day
• Press the Set Up and Set Down buttons to set time of day.
— Metric = 2 hour clock
— US = 12 hour clock with PM indicator light
Enter Control Programming Mode
— Press and hold both the Set Up and Set Down buttons for 5 seconds to enter
Programming Mode. When the program mode is entered, the program dot turns on.
The 7000 controller performs 5 basic types of Regeneration systems. The type of system is selected by the system manufacturer and set in the Master Programming Mode. Basic systems are:
• Time Clock
— The control operates for a preset number of days between Regeneration cycles. On the day that a
Regeneration cycle is required the system regenerates at the preset Regeneration Time.
• Meter Immediate
— The control regenerates immediately when the remaining capacity (volume of water that can be
treated before a Regeneration is required) drops to 0.
• Meter Delayed
— The control regenerates on the day that the remaining capacity drops to less than the reserve volume.
Regeneration starts at the preset Regeneration Time.
• Meter Delayed - Variable Brining
— The control regenerates on the day that the available volume of softened water drops to or below the
reserve volume. Regeneration starts at the set Regeneration Time. With the variable brining option
activated, the time setting for Cycle 1 is automatically calculated based on the volume of treated water
at the time of regeneration. Cycle time 1 will not exceed the original time setting and is never less than
1 minute.
• Day of the Week
— The control regenerates at the scheduled Regeneration Time on the day(s) of the week which are set
by the user.
The Current Day of the Week display will alternate with the Time of Day when the control is In Service.
The Day of the Week display will increment each day at 12:00 A.M. (Midnight).
