Programming The Faceplate
Timer
When the transformer is plugged into the electrical
outlet, a model code and a test number (example: s3.0), begins
to flash in the faceplate display. Then 12:00 AM, and PRESENT TIME
begins to flash.
NOTE: If SR - - shows in the display,
press the  (Up)
or (Down)
button until SR22 shows. Then, press the 
(Select/Menu) button to set, and change the flashing PRESENT TIME
display.
1. Set Time Of Day
If the words PRESENT TIME do not show in
the display, press the
(Select/Menu) button until they do.
Press the (Up)
or (Down)
buttons to set the present time. Up moves the display ahead;
down moves the time backward.
Be sure AM or PM is correct.
NOTE: Press buttons and quickly release to slowly
advance the display. Hold for fast advance. This procedure
applies for all of the following settings.
2.
Set Water Hardness Number
Press the
(Select/Menu) button once to display a flashing 25 and
HARDNESS.
Press the(Up)
or(Down)
buttons to set your water hardness number. NOTE: Be
sure to enter the grains per gallon (gpg) hardness of your
water supply on page 4, for future reference. If your water
supply contains iron, compensate for it by adding to the
water hardness number. For example, assume your water is
20 gpg hard and contains 2 ppm iron. Add 5 to the hardness
number for each 1 ppm of iron. In this example, you would
use 30 for your hardness number.
2 ppm iron x 5 = 10
20 gpg hardness + 10 = 30 Hardness Number
3. Set Recharge
(Regeneration) Time
Press the
(Select/Menu) button once to display a flashing 2:00AM
and RECHARGE TIME.
If no change is desired, go
to Step 4. If you want to change the recharge start time,
press the (Up)
or (Down)
buttons until the desired starting time shows. 4. Set Salt Efficiency
When this feature is ON, the unit will
operate at salt efficiencies of 4000 grains of hardness
per pound of salt or higher. (May recharge more often using
smaller salt dosage and less water).
Press and hold the
(Select/Menu) button until the following screen is displayed.
Once in this display, press the
(Select/Menu) button and one of the following two displays
is shown.
 
The icon on the top right corner is the efficiency
icon.
Press the (Up)
or (Down)
buttons to set On or Off. When set to On, the efficiency icon
will be displayed in the upper right hand corner of the normal
run display.
Press the
(Select/Menu) button once again, to complete initial
programming. RECHARGE TONIGHT will show in the display.
The efficiency icon is displayed when efficiency is set
to On.
You're new Morton Water
Softener has been programmed for high capacity when shipped
from the factory. To set the unit for high efficiency follow
the directions above. Some states require setting you're
water softener to high efficiency, check with you're local
state code.
Customizing
Features / Options
Recharge Now
If you have guests, or other times when more water than
usual is used, you could begin to run out of conditioned water.
If the unit is not scheduled to regenerate for another day
or two, you could get hard water until then. If this occurs,
do the following to start an immediate regeneration.
Press and hold the
(Recharge) button until RECHARGE NOW flashes in
the display, and the softener enters the fill cycle of regeneration
right away. RECHARGE NOW will flash during the regeneration.
When over, full water conditioning capacity is restored.
NOTE: Avoid using hot water while
the conditioner is regenerating, because the water heater
will refill with bypass hard water.
Recharge Tonight
If you do not want to start an immediate recharge, but
would like an extra recharge at the next preset recharge time,
do the following to schedule a recharge.
Press and release (do
not hold) the
(Recharge) button. RECHARGE TONIGHT flashes in
the display, and the softener will recharge at the next recharge
time. RECHARGE NOW will flash during the regeneration.
When over, full water conditioning capacity is restored.
Timer "Power
Outage Memory"
If electrical power to the timer is lost, "memory"
built into the timer circuitry will keep all settings for
up to 8 hours. While the power is out, the display is blank
and the unit will not regenerate. When electrical power
is restored, the following will occur.
You have to reset the present time only if the display
is flashing. The HARDNESS and RECHARGE TIME never require
resetting unless a change is desired. Even if the timer
is incorrect after a long power outage, the softener works
as it should to keep your water soft. However, regenerations
may occur at the wrong time of day until you reset the timer
to the correct time of day.
NOTE: If the unit was
regenerating when power was lost, it will now finish the
cycle.
