Boost temperature

If a SH demand lasts longer than the programmed time delay setting (F9) and there have been no DHW demands, the control will increase the water temperature set point by the amount in this parameter. If the SH demand continues through another time period, the set point will be increased again. This will continue until either the SH demand ends, a maximum of 20 increases has occurred, or the maximum set point has been reached. Once the SH demand has been satisfied the set point will revert back to its calculated setting. The boost temperature can be changed by the installer by accessing parameter F8. The temperature range of this parameter is 0°F (0°C) to 45°F (25°C). The default value is 0°F (0°C). This feature will be active if this parameter is set to anything other than 0°F (0°C).

Boost time

The boost time parameter sets the amount of time that must elapse with a SH demand before the water temperature set point will be increased. This parameter can be changed by the installer by accessing parameter F9. The time range for this parameter is 1 minute to 60 minutes. The default value is 20 minutes.

G: Anti-cycling

Anti-cycling time

Once a SH demand has been satisfied, a set amount of time must elapse before the control will respond to a new SH demand. The control will block the new heat demand and anti-cycling will be shown in the display until the time has elapsed or the water temperature drops below parameter G2. This parameter can be changed by the installer by accessing parameter G1. The time range for this parameter is 0 minutes to 40 minutes. The default value is 1 minute.

Inlet temperature differential for ending anti-cycling

The control will bypass the anti-cycling time if the water temperature drops too quickly. The control will use the water temperature the boiler was at when it shut off as the starting point. If the temperature drops below the temperature parameter the control will abort anti-cycling and allow the boiler to fire. This parameter can be changed by the installer by accessing parameter G2. The temperature range of this parameter is 0°F (0°C) to 54°F (30°C). The default value is 10°F (5°C).

Ramp delay on/off

When the ramp delay on/off parameter is active, the ramp delay limits the boiler firing rate when a SH cycle has started. There are six (6) limiting steps used to limit temperature overshoot and short cycles, see FIG. 1-2 on page 21 of this manual. This feature can be turned on or off depending on the installation. This parameter can be changed by the installer by accessing parameter G3. The control range of this parameter is 0 = Off, 1 = Ramp Up Only, and 2 = Ramp Up and Ramp Down. The default value is 0.

When ramp delay is active, additional parameters for ramp delay operation will have to be adjusted. These can only be accessed by the optional PC software. See the Knight Smart System PC Program Instructions Manual for additional ramp delay parameter information.
