Outdoor Air Shutdown Differential (SH1 - SH3)

The outdoor air shutdown differential parameter is the number of degrees below Outdoor Air Shutdown SH1, SH2, and SH3 parameters the outdoor air temperature must go before the boiler will respond to a SH demand. These parameters can be changed by the installer by accessing the Outdoor Air Shutdown Differential SH1, SH2, and SH3 parameters The temperature range of this parameter is 0°F (0°C) to 54°F (30°C). The default value is 10°F (6°C).

Shift Reset Curve (SH1 - SH3)

There is a shift reset curve for each outdoor reset. The shift reset curve parameter shifts the actual set point above or below the calculated set point by the number of degrees in this parameter. These parameters can be changed by the installer by accessing the Shift Reset Curve SH1, SH2, and SH3 parameters. The temperature range of this parameter is -17°F (-10°C) to 18°F (10°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 Temperature

If a SH demand lasts longer than the programmed time delay setting 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 SH1, SH2, SH3 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 the Boost Temperature parameter. The temperature range of this parameter is 0°F (0°C) to 25°F (14°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 calculated set point will be increased. This parameter can be changed by the installer by accessing the Boost Time parameter. The time range for this parameter is 0 minute to 50 minutes. The default value is 0 minutes.

Service Manual

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 the Anti-Cycling Override Differential parameter. This parameter can be changed by the installer by accessing the Anti-Cycling Time parameter. The time range for this parameter is 1 minute to 10 minutes. The default value is 1 minute.

Anti-Cycling Override Differential

The control will bypass the anti-cycling time if the inlet water temperature drops too much. The control will use the inlet water temperature the boiler was at when it shut off as the starting point. If the inlet 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 the Anti-Cycling Override Differential parameter. The temperature range of this parameter is 0°F (0°C) to 54°F (30°C). The default value is 10°F (6°C).

Ramp Delay (Enable / Disable)

This parameter allows the installer to enable or disable the SH ramp delay. The default setting is disabled.
