Viewable and changeable control parameters
CAUTION | Before changing parameters, note the |
settings so that the unit can be returned to | |
| its original operating parameters. |
A: General
Boiler model
The control will display “Armor Heater” as the model number because the same control is used on several models. This will be displayed when parameter A1 has been accessed. This parameter is not changeable.
User code
The User Code allows the user to access and change a limited number of control parameters. The access code can be changed by the user or the installer to a code of their choosing. To change the code, parameter A2 must be accessed. The default code is 0704. The code can be changed one digit at a time by using the arrow keys on the display.
Date and time
The control uses an internal clock for the night setback feature and for logging of events. For these features to work correctly, the clock must be set when the water heater is first installed or anytime the water heater has been powered off for more than 30 days. To set the clock, parameter A3 must be accessed. The date and time are displayed as “YY:MM:DD W hh:mm”. YY = year, MM = month, DD = date, W = day (1 = Sunday, 2 = Monday, etc.), hh = hour (24 hour time; 2:00 PM = 14:00), mm = minutes.
NOTICE | The internal clock does not adjust for | |
Daylight Savings Time and therefore, | ||
| ||
| will require a manual adjustment. |
Software version
The software version allows the user to view the software version in use by the control. This software controls the operation of the water heater. When a new software version becomes available, the existing control can be replaced with a new control to update the software.
Temperature units
The control can be configured to display temperature in either °C or °F. This parameter can be changed by the user or the installer by accessing parameter A5. The default is °F.
Night setback temperature
Once the internal clock has been set correctly, the night setback feature can be used to program a lower water temperature set point for water heating. This feature is only used when a tank sensor is used. This parameter can be changed by the user or the installer by accessing parameter A6. The temperature range for this parameter is 32°F to 140°F. The feature is turned off with a setting of 32°F. The default value is 32°F.
Night setback times
If parameter A6 is set to anything other than 32°F, the night setback feature becomes active. This will require start and stop times to be programmed for the days that reduced temperatures are required. These times can be changed by the user or the installer by accessing parameter A7. Each day of the week (Sunday through Saturday) will have an on and off time.
Example: Monday ON: 22:30, Tuesday OFF: 6:45. If you wish to skip a day and have no night setback, leave the on and off times the same. The default times for each day will be 00:00 (midnight).
B:Not used
C:Data logging
Total hrs. run
The total hrs. run parameter shows the total number of hours the water heater has been in the DHW firing position. This parameter can be viewed by the user and the installer by accessing parameter C1.
Ignition attempts
The ignition attempts parameter shows the total number of times the water heater has attempted to fire. This parameter can be viewed by the user and the installer by accessing parameter C2.
Show last 10 errors
The control will log the 10 most current errors with the date and time the error occurred. This parameter can be viewed by the user and the installer by accessing parameter C3.
