RATIO – Sets the desired change in system water temperature increases as the outdoor
temperature decreases. The reset ratio is expressed as follows:
2:1 for every 2 degree change in outdoor temperature the sytem temperature will change
1 degree.

SUGGESTED GUIDELINES
The selection of the correct ratio is dependent on the initial temperature and the desired system
water temperature setpoint and the design temperature conditions.
The reset ratio and setpoint must be selected so that the controller will raise the system water
temperature from the initial setpoint – suggested 110°F – to the maximum temperature required
when the outdoor temperature drops from 70°F to the design temperature.
PUSH SELECT
Design temperature rise of the system related to the boiler. Default value 20°F.
