Set Point  
DEFINITIONS  
When a set point demand signal from a set point system is  
present, the control operates the boiler(s) to maintain the  
supply water temperature at least as hot as the SETP set-  
ting. Refer to section F.  
The following defined terms and symbols are used through-  
out this manual to bring attention to the presence of hazards  
of various risk levels, or to bring attention to important infor-  
mation concerning the life of the product, see Figure 4  
below.  
External Input 0 - 10 V (dc) or 2 - 10 V (dc)  
When an external input signal is present, the control con-  
verts the signal to a target supply temperature. The control  
operates the boiler(s) to maintain the required supply water  
temperature.  
FIG. 4  
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION  
SECTION A: GENERAL OPERATION  
POWERING UP THE CONTROL  
When the control is powered up, all segments in the LCD  
are turned on for two seconds. The control displays the  
control type number in the LCD for two seconds. Next, the  
software version is displayed for two seconds. Finally, the  
control enters the normal operating mode.  
FIG. 5  
SETBACK (UNOCCUPIED)  
To provide greater energy savings, the control has a set-  
back feature (FIG. 6). With setback, the supply water tem-  
perature in the system is reduced when the building is unoc-  
cupied. By reducing the supply water temperature, the air  
temperature in the space may be reduced even when ther-  
mostat(s) are not turned down. Any time the UnO Sw (5)  
and the Com - (1) are connected, the control operates in the  
UnOccupied mode. When in the UnOccupied mode, the  
UNOCC segment is displayed in the LCD. The control  
adjusts the supply water temperature based on the UNOCC  
settings made in the control. This feature has no effect when  
the control is used in the External Input mode.  
OPERATION  
The control operates up to nine on / off heat sources to con-  
trol the supply water temperature to a hydronic system. The  
supply water temperature is based on either the current out-  
door temperature, an external 0 - 10 V (dc) or 2 - 10 V (dc)  
signal, or a fixed set point.  
Boiler Reset (Stand Alone)  
When a boiler demand signal from the heating system is  
present, the control operates the boiler(s) to maintain a sup-  
ply temperature based on the outdoor air temperature and  
Characterized Heating Curve settings, see Figure 5.  
Domestic Hot Water  
When a DHW demand signal from a DHW aquastat is pres-  
ent, the control operates the boiler(s) to maintain the supply  
water temperature at least as hot as the DHW XCHG set-  
ting. Refer to section E.

ROTATION  
The control's Equal Run Time Rotation function is fixed at  
48 hours. The firing order of the boilers change whenever  
one boiler accumulates 48 hours more running time than  
any other boiler. After each rotation, the boiler with the least  
running hours is the first to fire and the boiler with the most  
running hours is the last to fire. This function ensures that all  
the boilers being rotated receive equal amounts of use.  
When the Rotate / Off DIP switch is set to the Off position,  
the firing sequence always begins with the lowest boiler to  
the highest boiler, see Figure 7 below.  
FIG. 6  
COMBUSTION AIR OR ALARM CONTACT  
The control has an isolated contact that can be used as  
either a combustion air damper contact or an alarm contact.  
This selection is made using the C. A. / Alarm DIP switch.  
Combustion Air (C. A.)  
When the DIP switch is set to C. A., terminals 12 and 13 can  
be used as a switch to operate a combustion air damper.  
This contact closes prior to the first stage operating on the  
control. The amount of time that the contact closes prior to

Resetting the Rotation Sequence  
BOILER MAXIMUM  
To reset the rotation sequence, set the Rotate / Off DIP  
switch to the Off setting for 5 seconds and then return the  
DIP switch to the Rotate setting.  
The boiler maximum is the highest temperature that the  
control is allowed to use as a boiler target temperature. If  
the control does target the BOIL MAX setting, and the boil-  
er temperature is near the boiler maximum temperature, the  
maximum segment will be displayed in the LCD while either  
the boiler target temperature or the boiler supply tempera-  
ture is being viewed. At no time does the control operate  
the boiler(s) above 248°F (120°C).  
RUNNING TIMES  
The control displays the accumulated running time of each  
boiler in the VIEW menu. When using a multi-stage boiler,  
the running time that is displayed is the total number of run-  
ning hours of the Lo stage of the boiler.  
SECTION B: STAGING OPERATION

Resetting the Running Times  
To reset the running time for each boiler, select the appro-  
priate running time in the VIEW menu. Next, press the up  
and down arrow buttons simultaneously until CLR is dis-  
played.  
The control is capable of staging single stage, two stage,  
three stage or four stage on / off heat sources. In certain  
modes of operation the control is capable of controlling the  
individual boiler pumps. The control has 8 modes of opera-  
EXERCISING  
The control has a built-in exercising feature that is selected tion based on the type of staging and pump operation that

display the E01 error message. To clear this error message,  
follow the procedure in the Error Messages section of this  
manual.  
BOILER MINIMUM  
The boiler minimum is the lowest temperature that the con-  
trol is allowed to use as a boiler target temperature. During  
mild conditions, if the control calculates a boiler target tem-  
perature that is below the BOIL MIN setting, the boiler tar-  
get temperature is adjusted to at least the BOIL MIN setting.  
During this condition, if the boiler(s) is operating, the mini-  
mum segment is turned on in the display when viewing  
either the boiler supply temperature or the boiler target tem-  
perature. Set the BOIL MIN setting to the boiler manufac-  
turer's recommended temperature.

FIG. 9  
FIRE DELAY  
LO / HI OR LO / LO  
The Fire Delay is the time delay that occurs between the  
time that the control closes a stage contact to fire a stage  
and the burner fires for that stage. The fire delays for the  
first and third stages in a boiler are adjustable using the  
F DLY 1 and F DLY 2 settings. The fire delay for the sec-  
ond and the fourth stages is fixed at 10 seconds, see Figure  
10 below.  
When using multi-stage boilers, a selection must be made  
regarding the staging order of the boiler(s). This adjustment  
is made in the ADJUST menu of the control.  
Lo / Hi  
If the Lo/Hi staging option is selected the control stages in  
sequence all of the stages in a single boiler. Once all of the  
stages are turned on, the control then stages in sequence  
all of the stages in the next boiler in the rotation sequence.  
Fire Delay 1  
Fire Delay 1 is available in all modes of operation. Fire  
Delay 1 is the fire delay of the first stage of the boiler.  
Lo / Lo  
Fire Delay 2  
If the Lo/Lo staging option is selected, the control stages all  
of the Lo stage outputs in all of the boilers first. Once all of  
the boilers are operating on their Lo stages, the control then  
operates the second stage in each boiler in the same order.  
Fire Delay 2 is only available in the modes of operation for  
Three and Four Stage Boilers. Fire Delay 2 is the fire delay  
of the third stage of the boiler.  
STAGING  
The control operates up to nine stages to supply the  
required temperature. After a stage is turned on in the firing  
sequence, the control waits for the minimum time delay.  
After the minimum time delay between stages has expired,  
the control examines the control error to determine when  
the next stage is to fire. The control error is determined  
using Proportional, Integral and Derivative (PID) logic.  
Proportional compares the actual supply temperature to  
the boiler target temperature. The colder the supply water  
temperature, the sooner the next stage is turned on.  
Integral compares the actual supply temperature to the  
boiler target temperature over a period of time.  
Derivative compares how fast or slow the supply water  
temperature is changing. If the supply temperature is  
increasing slowly, the next stage is turned on sooner. If the  
supply temperature is increasing quickly, the next stage is  
turned on later, if at all.

Fixed Differential  
STAGE DELAY  
If the user desires to have a fixed differential, this is set  
using the BOIL DIFF setting in the ADJUST menu (FIG. 11).  
The stage delay is the minimum time delay between the fir-  
ing of stages. After this delay has expired the control can  
fire the next stage if it is required. This setting can be adjust-  
ed manually or set to an automatic setting. When the auto-  
matic setting is used, the control determines the best stage  
delay based on the operation of the system.  
Auto Differential  
If the Auto Differential is selected, the control automatically  
determines the best differential as the load changes. This  
reduces potential short cycling during light load conditions  
(FIG. 11).  
BOILER MASS  
The BOIL MASS setting allows the installer to adjust the  
control to the thermal mass of the type of heat sources used  
in the application. The BOIL MASS setting also adjusts the  
minimum inter-stage delay time when operating with an  
automatic differential.  
Lo (1)  
The Lo setting is selected if the boiler(s) that is used has a  
low thermal mass. This means that the boiler(s) has a very  
small water content and has very little metal in the heat  
exchanger. A boiler that has a low thermal mass comes up  
to temperature quite rapidly when fired. This is typical of  
many copper fin-tube boilers. The Lo MASS setting pro-  
vides the quickest staging on of boilers.  
Med (2)  
The Med setting is selected if the boiler(s) that is used has  
a medium thermal mass. This means that the boiler(s) either  
has a large water content and a low metal content or a low  
water content and a high metal content. This is typical of  
many modern residential cast iron boilers or steel tube boil-  
ers. The Med MASS setting stages on additional boilers at  
a slower rate than the Lo MASS setting.  
FIG. 11  
SECTION C: PUMP OPERATION  
Hi (3)  
SECTION C1: PUMP OPERATION  
The Hi setting is selected if the boiler(s) that is used has a  
high thermal mass. This means that the boiler(s) has both  
a large water content and a large metal content. A boiler that  
has a high thermal mass is relatively slow in coming up to  
temperature. This is typical of many commercial cast iron  
and steel tube boilers. The HI MASS setting stages on  
additional boilers at the slowest rate.  
PRIMARY PUMP OPERATION  
The primary pump operates under the following conditions:  
• The control receives a boiler demand and is not in warm  
weather shut down (WWSD).  
• The control receives a DHW demand when DHW MODE  
is set to 3 or 4.  
• The control receives a set point demand and set point  
MODE is set to 3.  
DIFFERENTIAL  
An on / off heat source must be operated with a differential  
to prevent short cycling. With the control, either a fixed or  
an auto differential may be selected. The boiler differential  
is divided around the boiler target temperature. The first  
stage contact closes when the supply water temperature is  
½ of the differential setting below the boiler target tempera-  
ture. Additional stages operate if the first stage is unable to  
bring the supply water temperature up to the boiler target  
temperature at a reasonable rate. As the supply tempera-  
ture reaches ½ of the differential above the boiler target  
temperature, stages are staged off.  
Primary Pump Purge  
After a demand is removed, the control continues to operate  
the primary pump for a period of time. The maximum length  
of time that the primary pump continues to run is adjustable  
using the Purge setting. The primary pump continues to run  
until either the purging time has elapsed or the boiler supply  
temperature drops more than a differential below the boiler  
minimum setting, see Figure 12.

FIG. 12  
FIG. 13  
BOILER PUMP OPERATION  
In certain modes of operation, the control can operate the  
individual boiler pumps on each boiler in addition to the pri-  
mary pump. The boiler pump turns on prior to the boiler fir-  
ing and continues to run after the boiler is turned off. The  
amount of time that the boiler pump turns on prior to the  
boiler firing is determined by the BOIL MASS setting. If a  
BOIL MASS of Lo is selected, the boiler pump turns on 15  
seconds prior to the boiler. If a BOIL MASS of Medium is  
selected, the boiler pump turns on 22 seconds prior to the  
boiler. If a BOIL MASS of Hi is selected, the boiler pump  
turns on 30 seconds prior to the boiler. However, if the con-  
trol is operating based on a set point demand, the boiler  
pump turns on 5 seconds prior to the boiler, see Figure 13.  
Boiler Pump Purge  
FIG. 14  
The amount of time that the boiler pump continues to run  
after the boiler turns off is adjustable using the boiler pump  
purge setting (PURG Boil Pmp).  
BOILER TARGET TEMPERATURE  
The boiler target temperature is determined from the char-  
acterized heating curve settings and the outdoor air tem-  
perature. The control displays the temperature that it is cur-  
rently trying to maintain as the boiler supply temperature. If  
the control does not presently have a requirement for heat,  
it does not show a boiler target temperature. Instead, "- - -"  
is displayed in the LCD.  
SECTION D: BOILER RESET OPERATION  
SECTION D1: BOILER RESET (STAND ALONE)  
BOILER DEMAND  
When operating in the stand-alone mode, a boiler demand  
is required in order for the control to provide heat to the  
heating system. A boiler demand is generated by applying  
a voltage between 24 and 230 V (ac) across the Boiler  
Demand and Common Demand terminals (6 and 7)  
(FIG. 14). Once voltage is applied, the Boiler Demand  
pointer is displayed in the LCD. If the control is not in  
WWSD, the control closes the primary pump contact. The  
control calculates a boiler target supply temperature based  
on the outdoor air temperature and the characterized heat-  
ing curve settings.  
CHARACTERIZED HEATING CURVE  
The control varies the supply water temperature based on  
the outdoor air temperature. The control takes into account  
the type of terminal unit that the system is using. Since dif-  
ferent types of terminal units transfer heat to a space using  
different proportions of radiation, natural convection and  
forced convection, the supply water temperature must be  
controlled differently. Once a terminal unit is selected, the  
control varies the supply water temperature according to the  
9

type of terminal unit. This improves the control of the air  
temperature in the building.  
ROOM  
The room is the desired room temperature for the building  
and provides a parallel shift of the heating curve. The room  
temperature desired by the occupants is often different from  
BOILER INDOOR DESIGN TEMPERATURE  
The indoor design temperature is the room temperature that the design indoor temperature. If the room temperature is  
was used in the original heat loss calculations for the build- not correct, adjusting the ROOM setting increases or  
ing. This setting establishes the beginning of the character- decreases the amount of heat available to the building. A  
ized heating curve, see Figure 15 below.  
ROOM setting is available for both the occupied (day) and  
unoccupied (night) periods.  
TERMINAL UNITS  
BOIL DSGN  
The control provides for a selection between six different  
terminal unit types: two types of radiant floor heat, fancoil,  
fin-tube convector, radiator and baseboard. When a termi-  
nal unit is selected, the control automatically loads the  
design supply temperature, maximum supply temperature,  
and minimum supply temperature (FIG. 16). The factory  
defaults are listed in Figure 16. These factory defaults can  
be changed to better match the installed system. If a facto-  
ry default has been changed, refer to section A to reload the  
factory defaults.  
BOIL IND  
FIG. 15  
OUTDOOR DESIGN TEMPERATURE  
The outdoor design temperature is the outdoor air tempera-  
ture that is the typical coldest temperature of the year where  
the building is located. This temperature is used when doing  
the heat loss calculations for the building. If a cold outdoor  
design temperature is selected, the boiler supply tempera-  
ture rises gradually as the outdoor temperature drops. If a  
warm outdoor design temperature is selected, the boiler  
supply temperature rises rapidly as the outdoor temperature  
drops.  
BOILER DESIGN TEMPERATURE  
The design supply temperature is the supply water temper-  
ature required to heat the building when the outdoor air tem-  
perature is as cold as the outdoor design temperature.  
WARM WEATHER SHUTDOWN  
When the outdoor air temperature rises above the WWSD  
setting, the control turns on the WWSD pointer in the dis-  
play. When the control is in Warm Weather Shut Down, the  
boiler demand pointer is displayed if there is a boiler  
demand. However, the control does not operate the  
heating system to satisfy this demand. The control does  
respond to a DHW or set point demand and operates as  
described in sections E & F.

FIG. 16  
HIGH MASS RADIANT (1)  
This type of a hydronic radiant floor is embedded in either a  
thick concrete or gypsumpour. This heating system has a  
large thermal mass and is slow acting (FIG. 17).  
LOW MASS RADIANT (2)  
This type of radiant heating system is either attached to the  
bottom of a wood sub-floor, suspended in the joist space, or  
sandwiched between the sub-floor and the surface. This  
type of radiant system has a relatively low thermal mass  
and responds faster than a high mass system (FIG. 17).  
FANCOIL (3)  
A fancoil terminal unit or air handling unit (AHU) consists of  
a hydronic heating coil and either a fan or blower. Air is  
forced across the coil at a constant velocity by the fan or  
blower, and is then delivered into the building space  
(FIG. 17).  
FIG. 17  
BOOST  
When the control changes from the UnOccupied mode to  
the Occupied mode, it enters into a boosting mode. In this  
mode, the supply water temperature to the system is raised  
above its normal values for a period of time to provide a  
faster recovery from the setback temperature of the build-  
ing. The maximum length of the boost is selected using the  
BST setting.  
FIN-TUBE CONVECTOR (4)  
A convector terminal unit is made up of a heating element  
with fins on it. This type of terminal unit relies on the natu-  
ral convection of air across the heating element to deliver  
heated air into the space. The amount of natural convection  
to the space is dependant on the supply water temperature  
to the heating element and the room air temperature  
(FIG. 17).  
Typical settings for the boost function vary between 30 min-  
utes and two hours for buildings that have a fast responding  
heating system. For buildings that have a slow responding  
heating system, a setting between four hours and eight  
hours is typical. After a boost time is selected, the setback  
timer must be adjusted to come out of setback some time in  
advance of the desired occupied time. This time in advance  
is normally the same as the BST setting.  
RADIATOR (5)  
A radiator terminal unit has a large heated surface that is  
exposed to the room. A radiator provides heat to the room  
through radiant heat transfer and natural convection  
(FIG. 17).  
If the building is not up to temperature at the correct time,  
the BST setting should be lengthened and the setback timer  
should be adjusted accordingly. If the building is up to tem-  
perature before the required time, the BST setting should be  
shortened and the setback timer should be adjusted accord-  
ingly. If the system is operating near its design conditions  
or if the supply water temperature is being limited by set-  
tings made in the control, the time required to bring the  
building up to temperature may be longer than expected.  
BASEBOARD (6)  
A baseboard terminal unit is similar to a radiator, but has a  
low profile and is installed at the base of the wall. The pro-  
portion of heat transferred by radiation from a baseboard is  
greater than that from a fin-tube convector (FIG. 17).

SECTION E: DOMESTIC HOT WATER OPERA-  
TION  
SECTION E1: DOMESTIC HOT WATER (DHW)  
DHW DEMAND  
A DHW Demand is required for the control to provide heat  
to the DHW system. A DHW aquastat or set point control is  
used as a switch in the DHW demand circuit. Once the con-  
trol detects a DHW demand, the DHW Demand pointer  
turns on in the LCD and the control operates the boiler to  
provide a sufficient boiler supply water temperature to the  
DHW tank. The control operates the pumps as described  
below.  
The control registers a DHW Demand when a voltage  
between 24 and 230 V (ac) is applied across the Setp /  
DHW and Com Dem terminals (8 and 7).  
BOILER TARGET DURING DHW GENERATION  
The boiler target temperature is at least as hot as the DHW  
exchange setting (DHW XCHG). The DHW demand over-  
rides the boiler reset target temperature, except when the  
boiler reset target is higher than that of the DHW exchange  
setting.  
DHW MODE & PRIORITY OPERATION  
The control has five different settings available for DHW  
MODE. The required DHW MODE setting will depend on  
the piping arrangement of the DHW tank.  
It is often desirable to have a priority for the DHW allowing  
for quick recovery of the DHW tank temperature. This is  
achieved by limiting or even stopping the flow of heat to the  
heating system when the DHW tank calls for heat see  
Figure 18.  
FIG. 18  
DHW MODE 2 - DHW IN PARALLEL NO PRIORITY  
When a DHW Demand is present, the Relay 9 / DHW con-  
tact (terminals 30 and 31) closes with the DHW demand.  
The primary pump does not turn on, but may operate based  
on a Boiler Demand or External Input Signal. Refer to sec-  
tions E and G. It is assumed that the DHW pump will pro-  
vide adequate flow through the heat exchanger and the  
boiler.  
DHW MODE OFF - NO DHW  
The DHW feature is not selected. This allows for Set Point  
operation as described in section F.  
DHW MODE 1 - DHW IN PARALLEL NO PRIORITY  
When a DHW Demand is present, the Relay 9 / DHW con-  
tact (terminals 30 and 31) closes and the primary pump con-  
tact is opened. It is assumed that the DHW pump will  
provide adequate flow through the heat exchanger and  
the boiler.  
DHW MODE 3 - DHW IN PRIMARY / SECONDARY NO  
PRIORITY  
When a DHW Demand is present, the Relay 9 / DHW con-  
tact (terminals 30 and 31) is closed and the primary pump  
contact is closed. This mode can be used if a DHW tank  
is piped in direct return and a DHW valve is installed.

DHW MODE 4 - DHW IN PRIMARY / SECONDARY WITH CONDITIONAL DHW PRIORITY  
PRIORITY  
The Conditional DHW Priority Override applies to DHW  
MODE 2 and 4. If the boiler supply temperature is main-  
tained at or above the required temperature during DHW  
generation, this indicates that the boiler(s) has enough  
capacity for DHW and possibly heating as well. As long as  
the boiler supply temperature is maintained near its target  
and the heating and DHW targets are similar, DHW and  
heating occurs simultaneously.  
When a DHW Demand is present, the Relay 9 / DHW con-  
tact (terminals 30 and 31) is closed and the primary pump  
contact is closed. Priority can only be obtained using exter-  
nal wiring. During a priority override, the Relay 9 / DHW  
contact is opened until the heating system has recovered  
before returning to DHW operation, see Figure 19. This  
mode can be used if a DHW tank is piped in direct  
return and a DHW valve is installed.  
DHW POST PURGE  
After the DHW Demand is removed, the control performs a  
purge on the boiler(s). The control shuts off the boiler(s)  
and continues to operate either the DHW pump or the DHW  
valve and the system and boiler pump if applicable. This  
purges the residual heat from the boiler(s) into the DHW  
tank. The control continues this purge for a maximum of two  
minutes or until the boiler supply water temperature drops  
20° F (11°C) below the boiler target temperature during the  
DHW operation. The control also stops the purge if the boil-  
er supply temperature is close to the current boiler target  
temperature.  
DHW MIXING PURGE  
FIG. 19  
After DHW operation, the boiler(s) is extremely hot. At the  
same time, the heating zones may have cooled off consid-  
erably after being off for a period of time. To avoid thermal-  
ly shocking the boiler(s) after DHW in parallel with priority

setting. Once the a llowed t ime for priority has elapsed, the  
control overrides the DHW priority and resumes space  
heating.  
To provide external DHW priority in DHW Mode 4, the space  
heating zones must be interlocked with the Relay 9 / DHW  
contact, Figure 20. During DHW demands, the Relay 9 /  
DHW contact must remove any power to all space heating  
zone valves or zone pumps.  
FIG. 21  
DHW DURING UNOCCUPIED  
If the control receives a DHW Demand during an unoccu-  
pied period, the control can either continue operation of the  
DHW system as it would during the occupied period or the  
control can ignore a DHW Demand for the duration of the  
unoccupied period.  
FIG. 20

For correct operation, close attention must be paid to the  
mechanical layout of the system. When the control turns off  
the primary pump (Prim P1), flow to the heating system  
must stop. If flow is not stopped, the temperature in the  
heating system can exceed the maximum desired tempera-  
ture and can result in damage to the heating system.  
NUMBER OF BOILERS USED FOR DHW GENERATION  
The number of boilers used for DHW generation can be  
selected from one to the maximum number of boilers using  
the BOIL DHW setting. This applies when only a DHW  
Demand is present. If there are other demands present, the  
control does not limit the number of boilers operated.  
DHW MODE 4 OPERATION  
SECTION E2: DHW WITH LOW TEMPERATURE BOILERS  
In DHW MODE 4, the space heating zones must be pre-  
vented from coming on during DHW demands using exter-  
nal wiring. This can be done using an external relay to  
remove power from zone pumps or zone valves while a  
DHW Demand is present. During a DHW Demand, the con-  
trol closes the primary pump (Prim P1) contact and the  
Relay 9 / DHW contact. Once the DHW Demand is  
removed, or during a DHW Priority Override, the Relay 9 /  
DHW contact is opened, and the external wiring should  
allow the space heating zones to operate.  
If DHW is to be incorporated into a low temperature system  
such as a radiant heating system, a mixing device is often  
installed to isolate the high DHW supply temperature from  
the lower system temperature. If a mixing device is not  
installed, high temperature water could be supplied to the  
low temperature system while trying to satisfy the DHW  
demand. This may result in damage to the low temperature  
heating system. The control is capable of providing DHW in  
such a system while maximizing the chance that the tem-  
perature in the heating system does not exceed its allowed  
maximum setting.  
There is no mixing purge available in DHW MODE 4. After  
DHW priority, the boiler supply water temperature may  
exceed the design water temperature of the space heating  
system and can result in damage to the heating system.  
To prevent high temperature water from being introduced  
into the heating system, the primary pump (Prim P1) must  
be turned off during a call for DHW. To do this, the control  
must be set to DHW MODE 2 or DHW MODE 4 and Boil  
MIN must be set to OFF, see Figure 22 below.  
SECTION F: SET POINT OPERATION  
SECTION F1: SET POINT  
Set point operation is only available when DHW MODE is  
set to OFF.  
SET POINT  
The control can operate to satisfy the requirements of a set  
point load in addition to a space heating load. A set point  
load overrides the current outdoor reset temperature and  
WWSD setting in order to provide heat to the set point load.  
SET POINT DEMAND  
A set point demand is required for the control to provide  
heat to the set point load. The control registers a set point  
demand when a voltage between 24 and 230 V (ac) is  
applied across the Setp / DHW and Com Dem terminals (8  
and 7) (FIG. 23).  
FIG. 22  
DHW MODE 2 OPERATION  
Once voltage is applied, the Set Point Demand pointer turns  
on in the LCD. The control operates the boiler(s) to main-  
tain at least the set point setting.  
On a call for DHW, the control provides DHW priority by  
shutting off the primary pump (Prim P1) for a period of time.  
This time is based on the DHW Priority Override setting.  
However, if the DHW Demand is not satisfied within the  
allotted time, the boiler(s) shuts off and the heat of the  
boiler is purged into the DHW tank.  
Once the boiler supply temperature is sufficiently reduced,  
the Relay 9 / DHW contact shuts off. The heating system is  
turned on for a period of time to prevent the building from  
cooling off. After a period of heating, and if the DHW  
Demand is still present, the control shuts off the heating sys-  
tem and provides heat to the DHW tank once again.

operates set point and heating simultaneously by turning on  
the primary pump (Prim P1).  
BOILER TARGET DURING SET POINT  
The boiler target temperature during a set point demand is  
increased to at least the Set Point setting. This temperature  
is maintained as long as the control has a set point demand.  
CONDITIONAL SET POINT PRIORITY  
If the boiler(s) supply temperature is maintained at or above  
the required temperature during set point generation, this  
indicates that the boiler(s) has enough capacity for set point  
and possibly heating as well. As long as the boiler target  
temperature is maintained and the heating and set point  
targets are similar, set point and heating occur at the same  
time.  
SET POINT MODE  
SETP MODE 1 - Setpoint in Parallel  
Whenever a set point demand is present, the boiler(s) is  
operated to maintain the set point target. The primary pump  
does not turn on, but may operate based on a Boiler  
Demand or an External Input Signal, see Figure 24.  
SECTION G: EXTERNAL INPUT OPERATION  
SECTION G1: EXTERNAL INPUT  
It is assumed that the Set Point pump will provide ade-  
quate flow through the heat exchanger and the boiler.  
EXTERNAL INPUT  
SETP MODE 2 - Set Point in Parallel with Priority  
The control can accept an external DC signal in place of the  
outdoor sensor. The control converts the DC signal into the  
appropriate boiler target temperature between 50°F (10°C)  
and 210°F (99°C) based on the External Input Signal and  
Offset settings. To use the external input signal, the  
External Input / Stand Alone DIP switch must be set to  
External Input.  
Whenever a set point demand is present, the boiler(s) is  
operated to maintain the set point target and the primary  
pump (Prim P1) contact is opened.  
It is assumed that the Set Point pump will provide ade-  
quate flow through the heat exchanger and the boiler.  
When operating in the external input mode, an external sig-  
nal is required in order for the control to provide heat to the  
heating system. An external signal is generated by apply-  
ing a voltage between 0 V (dc) and 10 V (dc) across the Out  
+ and Com - terminals (4 and 1) (FIG. 25). Once voltage is  
applied, the External Input Signal pointer is displayed in the  
LCD and the control closes the primary pump contact. The  
control calculates a boiler target supply temperature based  
on the external input signal and the settings made in the  
control. The control then fires the boiler(s), if required, to  
maintain the target supply temperature. If the external sig-  
nal goes below the minimum voltage, the External Input  
Signal pointer is turned off in the display. The boiler target  
temperature is displayed as " - - - " to indicate that there is  
no longer a call for heating. The primary pump and boiler  
pumps operate as described in section C.  
SETP MODE 3 - Primary Pump during Set Point  
Whenever a set point demand is present, the primary pump  
(Prim P1) is turned on and the boiler(s) is operated to main-  
tain the set point target.

SET POINT PRIORITY OVERRIDE  
The set point has a Priority Override while in SETP MODE  
2. In order to prevent the building from cooling off too much  
or the possibility of a potential freeze up during set point pri-  
ority, the control limits the amount of time for set point prior-  
ity. The length of Set Point priority is determined by the  
Priority Override setting. Once the allowed time for priority  
has elapsed, the control overrides the set point priority and

INPUT SIGNAL  
EXTERNAL INPUT SIGNAL CONVERSION TABLES  
The control can accept either a 0 - 10 V (dc) signal or a 2 -  
10 V (dc) signal. The External Input Signal setting must be  
set to the proper setting based on the signal that is being  
sent to the control.  
0 - 10 V (dc) or 0 - 20 mA  
When the 0 - 10 V (dc) signal is selected, an input voltage  
of 1 V (dc) corresponds to a boiler target temperature of  
50°F (10°C). An input voltage of 10 V (dc) corresponds to a  
boiler target temperature of 210°F (99°C). As the voltage  
varies between 1 V (dc) and 10 V (dc) the boiler target tem-  
perature varies linearly between 50°F (10°C) and 210°F  
(99°C). If a voltage below 0.5 V (dc) is received the boiler  
target temperature is displayed as " - - - " indicating that  
there is no longer a call for heating.  
A 0 - 20 mA signal can be converted to a 0 - 10 V (dc) sig-  
nal by installing a 500 ohm resistor between the Out + and  
Com - terminals (4 and 1).  
2 - 10 V (dc) or 4 - 20 mA  
When the 2 - 10 V (dc) signal is selected, an input voltage  
of 2 V (dc) corresponds to a boiler target temperature of  
50°F (10°C). An input voltage of 10 V (dc) corresponds to a  
boiler target temperature of 210°F (99°C). As the voltage  
varies between 2 V (dc) and 10 V (dc) the boiler target tem-  
perature varies linearly between 50°F (10°C) and 210°F  
(99°C). If a voltage below 1.5 V (dc) is received the boiler  
target temperature is displayed as " - - - " indicating that  
there is no longer a call for heating.  
A 4 - 20 mA signal can be converted to a 2 - 10 V (dc) sig-  
nal by installing a 500 ohm resistor between the Out + and  
Com - terminals (4 and 1).  
OFFSET  
The Offset setting allows the boiler target temperature to be  
fine tuned to the external input signal. The control reads the  
external input signal and converts this to a boiler target tem-  
perature. The Offset setting is then added to the boiler tar-  
get temperature.

A good quality electrical test meter, capable of reading from DHW Demand  
at least 0 - 300 V (ac) and at least 0 - 2,000,000 ohm, is  
essential to properly test the wiring and sensors.  
If a DHW demand is used, measure the voltage between  
the Setp / DHW and the Com Dem terminals (8 and 7)  
(FIG. 35). When the DHW demand device calls for heat, a  
voltage between 20 and 260 V (ac) should be measured at  
the terminals. When the DHW demand device is off, less  
than 5 V (ac) should be measured.  
ƽ TEST THE SENSORS  
In order to test the sensors, the actual temperature at each  
sensor location must be measured. A good quality digital  
thermometer with a surface temperature probe is recom-  
mended for ease of use and accuracy (FIG. 33). Where a  
digital thermometer is not available, a spare sensor can be  
strapped alongside the one to be tested and the readings  
compared. Test the sensors according to the instructions in  
INS7141.  
Set Point Demand  
If a set point demand is used, measure the voltage between  
the Setp / DHW and the Com Dem terminals (8 and 7) (FIG.  
35). When the set point demand device calls for heat, you  
should measure between 20 and 260 V (ac) at the termi-  
nals. When the set point demand device is off, you should  
measure less than 5 V (ac).  
FIG. 33  
TEST THE POWER SUPPLY  
Make sure exposed wires and bare terminals are not in con-  
tact with other wires or grounded surfaces. Turn on the  
power and measure the voltage between the Power L and  
Power N terminals (10 and 9) (FIG. 34) using an AC volt-  
meter, the reading should be between 103.5 and  
126.5 V (ac).

may have a flow switch that prevents firing until the primary  
pump (P1) or boiler pump is running.) If the boiler operates  
properly, disconnect the power and remove the jumper.  
ƽ TEST THE OUTPUTS  
Primary Pump (Prim P1)  
If a primary pump is connected to the Prim P1 terminal (11),  
make sure that power to the terminal block is off and install  
a jumper between the Power L and Prim P1 terminals (10  
and 11) (FIG. 37). When power is applied to the Power N  
and Power L terminals (9 and 10) (FIG. 37), the primary  
pump should start. If the pump does not turn on, check the  
wiring between the terminal block and pump and refer to  
any installation or troubleshooting information supplied with  
the pump. If the pump operates properly, disconnect the  
power and remove the jumper.  
If a boiler pump is connected to the Relay 1 terminals (14  
and 15) (FIG. 39), make sure that power to the terminal  
block is off and install a jumper between the terminals.  
When power is applied to the circuit, the boiler pump should  
start. If the pump does not turn on, check the wiring  
between the terminal block and pump and refer to any  
installation or troubleshooting information supplied with the  
pump. If the pump operates properly, disconnect the power  
and remove the jumper. Repeat the above procedure for

DIP SWITCH SETTINGS  
FIG. 43  
GENERAL  
ADVANCED / INSTALLER  
The DIP switch settings on the control are very important  
and should be set to the appropriate settings prior to mak-  
ing any adjustments to the control through the User  
Interface. The DIP switch settings change the items that are  
available to be viewed and / or adjusted in the User  
Interface.  
The Adv / Installer DIP switch selects the access level of the  
control (FIG. 44). In the Installer access level, a limited  
number of items may be viewed and / or adjusted. In the  
Advanced access level, all items may be viewed and / or  
adjusted.  
If a DIP switch is changed while the control is powered up,  
the control responds to the change in setting by returning  
the display to the VIEW menu, see Figure 42.

present, the fourth stage is turned on.  
• After ten seconds, all stages and the boiler pump  
are turned off.  
TESTING THE CONTROL  
The control has a built-in test routine that is used to test the  
main control functions. The control continually monitors the  
sensors and displays an error message whenever a fault is  
found. See the following pages for a list of the control’s  
error messages and possible causes. When the Test but-  
ton is pressed, the test light is turned on. The individual out-  
puts and relays are tested in the following test sequence.  
Step 4 If DHW MODE is set to 1 or 2 and the last boiler in  
modes 1, 4, and 5 are set to OFF, the primary pump is shut  
off and the DHW contact is closed.  
Step 5 If DHW MODE is set to 3 or 4 and the last boiler in  
modes 1, 4, and 5 are set to OFF, the primary pump stays  
on and the DHW contact is closed.  
Step 6 All contacts are turned off.  
MAX HEAT  
The control has a function called Max Heat, see Figure 52.  
In this mode, the control turns on and operates the system  
up to the maximum set temperatures as long as there is a  
demand for heat. The control continues to operate in this  
mode for up to 24 hours or until the Item, Menu or Test but-  
ton is pressed. This mode may be used for running all cir-  
culators during system start-up in order to purge air from the  
piping. To enable the Max Heat feature, use the following  
procedure.  
FIG. 51  
TEST SEQUENCE  
1) Press and hold the Test button for more than 3 seconds.  
At this point, the control flashes the MAX segment and dis-  
plays the word OFF.  
Each step in the test sequence lasts 10 seconds.  
During the test routine, if a demand from the system is pres-  
ent, the test sequence may be paused by pressing the Test  
button. If the Test button is not pressed again for 5 minutes  
while the test sequence is paused, the control exits the  
entire test routine. If the test sequence is paused, the Test  
button can be pressed again to advance to the next step.  
This can also be used to rapidly advance through the test  
sequence. To reach the desired step, repeatedly press and  
release the Test button until the appropriate device and seg-  
ment in the display turn on.  
2) Using the up or down arrow buttons, select the word On.  
After 3 seconds, the control turns on all outputs. However,  
the max heat mode is still limited by the BOIL MAX setting.  
3) To cancel the Max Heat mode, press the Item, Menu, or  
Test button.  
4) Once the Max Heat mode has either ended or is can-  
celled, the control resumes normal operation.  
Step 1 The primary pump is turned on and remains on for  
the entire test routine.  
Step 2 If the Alarm / C.A. DIP switch is set to Alarm, the  
Alarm contact is turned on for 10 seconds and then shuts  
off. If the Alarm / C.A. DIP switch is set to C.A, the com-  
bustion Air Damper contact is turned on and remains on for  
the entire test routine.  
Step 3 For each boiler that is set to Auto, the following test  
sequence is used.  
• If the mode indicates that a boiler pump is used,  
the boiler pump is turned on and remains on.  
• Next, the first stage of the boiler is turned on and  
remains on.  
• If a second stage is present, the second stage is  
turned on and remains on.  
• If a third stage is present, the third stage is  
turned on and remains on. If a fourth stage is

The installer must ensure that this control and its wiring are  
isolated and/or shielded from strong sources of electromag-  
netic noise. Conversely, this Class B digital apparatus com-  
plies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and meets all require-  
ments of the Canadian Interference - Causing Equipment  
Regulations. However, if this control does cause harmful  
interference to radio or television reception, which is deter-  
mined by turning the control off and on, the user is encour-  
aged to try to correct the interference by re-orientating or  
relocating the receiving antenna, relocating the receiver  
with respect to this control, and/or connecting the control to  
a different circuit from that to which the receiver is connect-  
ed.  
The control has detected no increase in the supply water  
temperature within the BOIL Alarm time setting. Check to  
see if the boilers are operating properly using the Test but-  
ton. To reset the alarm, press and hold the up and down  
arrow buttons for 5 seconds while in the VIEW menu.
