Page 9: Preparation
Preparation Tank Preparation Water Pressure: A minimum of 20 pounds of water pressure is required for the regenera- tion valve to operate effectively. Electrical Facilities: An uninterrupted alternating current (AC) supply is required. Note: Other voltages are available. Please make sure your voltage supply is compatible with your unit before installation. - Page 10 Use the funnel provided to pour the media into the tank. The order the media is poured in is important. Begin by pouring the Quartz Gravel into the bottom of the tank. Pour it evenly around the hole to ensure it is well distributed in the tank and pour slow enough to keep from plugging the hole.
- Page 11 Install the upper basket on the bottom of the valve by lining up the tabs then turning the basket clockwise to lock it in place. Place the upper basket over the distributor tube and push the valve onto the tank. Thread the valve on the tank by turning it clockwise.

Page 12: Installation Instructions
Installation Instructions If your hot water tank is electric, turn off the power to it to avoid damage to the element in the tank. If you have a private well, turn the power off to the pump and then shut off the main water shut off valve. - Page 13 Insert the provided plumbing fittings into the bypass. 3/4" and 1" male pipe thread fittings are supplied so ensure you pick the correct one for your plumbing. Tighten the retaining nuts hand tight, ensuring that the fittings are not cross threaded. support.uswatersystems.com www.uswatersystems.com...
- Page 14 Be sure to use Teflon tape or other pipe sealant on the plumbing fitting threads and install them on the bypass accordingly. Use an adjustable wrench to ensure they are tight. NOTE: All piping should be secured to prevent stress on the bypass valve and connectors.
- Page 15 Connect the drain hose to the valve and secure it with a hose clamp. Run the drain hose to the nearest laundry tub, floor drain or approved air gap fitting. The drain can be ran overhead or down along the floor. Drain tubing should be a minimum of 1/2" ID.
- Page 16 Turn the both bypass handles so they are perpendicular to the bypass to place the unit in the bypass position. Slowly turn on the main water supply. At the nearest cold treated faucet or spigot, open the faucet and let water run a few minutes or until the system is free of any air or foreign material resulting from the plumbing work.

Page 19: Programming Using Legacy View App
Programming Using Legacy View App The Legacy View app allows the user to control every aspect of the water system from the convenience of a smart phone. The Legacy View app will allow the user to monitor usage history, change cycle times, start a regeneration and advance through a regenera- tion. - Page 20 Dashboard Parameters that can be changed are indicated with orange font. To change a parameter, tap on the orange font then use the keyboard that appears to change the value. Time of Day: Tap on the "Time of Day" box. A box will appear that allows you to set the unit to the time that matches the device being used to program the unit.

- Page 22 Status and History The Status and History screen shows current conditions of the system as well as flow rate and usage history. There are two parameters that can be reset. Total Regenerations: This parameter shows how many times the system has regen- erated since it was put in service or since the last time the value was reset.

Page 23: Automatic Bypass During Regeneration
Automatic Bypass During Regeneration The regeneration cycle can last 25 to 30 minutes, after which treated water service will be restored. During regeneration, untreated water is automatically bypassed for use in the household. This is why automatic regeneration is set for sometime during the night and manual regenerations should be performed when little or no water will be used in the household. -
Page 24: System Start Up
System Start Up With the bypass handle in the bypass position, initiate an immediate regeneration. This will advance the valve to the backwash position. Once the valve has stopped moving and is in the backwash position, slowly open the bypass handle about 1/8th turn. Water should slowly enter the tank. NOTE: If there is a loud knocking sound, simply turn the bypass handle back slightly as the system is filling too quickly. -
Page 25: Features
Features Battery Back-Up (Uses a standard 9-volt alkaline battery.) • During power failures, the battery will maintain the time of day as long as the battery has power. The display is turned off to conserve battery power during this time. To confirm that the battery is working, press either button and the display will turn on for five (5) seconds. - Page 26 Pull out the 9V battery connector, remove the battery cover, and attach the battery to the connector. Push the battery back in the holder on the valve and replace the cover and screws. support.uswatersystems.com www.uswatersystems.com...

Page 27: Control Valve Error Code Diagnosis
Control Valve Error Code Diagnosis Under normal operating conditions, when your control valve is in the “in service” position, the display should alternate between the current time of day and the number of days re- maining (for filters and time clock softeners) or gallons remaining (for metered softeners) until the next regeneration. - Page 28 Error 5 - Motor overload. This occurs when the motor current is too high. This could be caused by an issue with the motor itself, but is typically caused by friction in the valve body. Disconnect powerhead from valve body and cycle power to clear the error code. If the error 5 returns, replace the motor.
