Water Softener Motorized Drive Operation:
Viewing the water softener piston rod through the clear water softener clear dome is
a visual indicator of the water softener drives current position. On the water softener
motorized bypass drive, viewing the rod indicates that the water softener is in service.
Viewing the water softener rod as shown on the water softener MAV indicates that the
water softener common port is currently connected to the water softener “B” port. If
the water softener rod is not visible the water softener is offline in the case of a bypass,
or connected to the water softener “A” port of a MAV. This water softener drive logic is
reversible to meet specific plumbing applications by reversing the polarity of the water
softener drive motor wiring harness as shown below.

15
Water Softener Reversing Motorized Drive Direction:
Water softener motorized bypass and water softener MAV drives are factory wired with the
white wire on the right when viewing the water softener wiring harness as shown, reversing
the water softener wires reverses the logic of the drive. The water softener wires can be
removed from the housing by holding down the water softener locking tab in the small
window while applying light pressure to the wire, being careful not to disengage the wire
from its crimped on connector. The water softener wires can then be reinserted, being sure
the water softener locking tab re-engages in the window.
