Testing the Demands

Terminals 21 – 25

1. Remove the front and bottom cover from the control.
2. Use an electrical test meter to measure (ac) voltage

between the Boiler Demand terminals (21-22) or the
DHW / Setpoint Demand terminals (23-24) or the Proof
Demand terminals (24-25).

When the demand device is on, a voltage between
20 and 260 V (ac) should be measured between the
appropriate demand terminals and the LCD should display
an indicator arrow pointing to Boiler Demand, DHW /
Setpoint Demand, or Proof Demand.
When the demand device is off, less than 5 V (ac) should
be measured between the terminals.

Cleaning the Control

The control’s exterior can be cleaned using a damp cloth. Moisten the cloth with water and wring out prior to wiping control.
Do not use solvents or cleaning solutions.

DIP Switch Settings

Set the DIP switch settings prior to making adjustments
to the control through the user interface. Setting the DIP
switches determines which menu items are displayed in
the user interface.

Switch Settings

EMS / Demands
The EMS / Demands DIP switch selects whether a tekmar
outdoor sensor 070 or an external 0-10 or 2-10 V (dc) input
signal is to be connected to the Com - and Out + terminals
(2 & 3).

Set the EMS / Demands DIP switch to EMS if an Energy
Management System is providing an external analog input
signal to the control.

Set the EMS / Demands DIP switch to Demands if the
control is accepting a boiler demand and using the outdoor
sensor for outdoor reset.
