CONTROL SYSTEM FEATURES

Advanced Diagnostics: Plain English text and animated icons display detailed operational and diagnostic information. LCD screen on the front of the water heater displays the Sequence of Operation in real time. Fault or Alert messages are displayed when operational problems occur. Advanced Service menu displays a list of possible causes for current Fault and Alert conditions to aid in servicing. See the Troubleshooting section pages 65 - 69.

Economy Mode Operation: Control system automatically lowers the Operating Set Point by a programmed value during user defined time periods. Helps reduce operating costs during unoccupied or peak demand periods - see pages 55 - 58.

Linear Sequencing: First bank on is the last bank off. Banks of heating elements (3 elements per bank) are energized according to adjustable (1 to 20°) differential set points for each bank - see page 52. Helps reduce operating costs during low/moderate loads.

CONTROL SYSTEM NAVIGATION

The UIM (User Interface Module) is located on the front cabinet of the Electronic Control Model water heaters. All operational information and user settings are displayed and accessed using the UIM. The UIM includes five snap acting (momentary) user input buttons; an Up, Down and 3 Operational Buttons.

Up & Down Buttons

Used to navigate (up and down) and to select (highlight) menu items. Also used to adjust or change (increase/decrease, on/off, set time) various user settings.

Operational Buttons

The 3 Operational Buttons are multifunctional. Their current function is defined by the text that appears directly above each button on the LCD screen. The function will change depending on what menu is currently displayed or what menu item is selected. When no text appears on the LCD screen above an Operational Button there is no function assigned.

Servicing should only be performed by a Qualified Service Agent
