6.3.5 Viewing the Set Point

The set point is displayed as shown in instructions

below.

NOTE

When viewing the set point temperature using the steps in Section

6.3.5, you will note that the when the voltage source is equal to

0.9 Volt, the set point temperature will drop to 41°F (9°C), thereby

shutting down the boiler.

Example:

U1 = 1 Volt and the set point = 80°F

U2 = 8 Volts and the set point = 180°F

UO should be set to 0.9 Volt

Viewing the Setpoint

1. Turn the Rotary Knob to the DISPLAY menu –

INSTALLATION sub-menu.

2. Press the Program Key to enter the

INSTALLATION sub-menu.

3. Using the Rotary Knob, scroll to

T-EXT DES to view the set point temperature.

6.4 Domestic Hot Water Operation Using A Tank Sensor

With the controller hinged panel closed, turn the Rotary Knob until the Faucet symbol ( )

appears in the lower part of the display window. When there is a demand for domestic hot

water (DHW), a second Faucet symbol will be displayed. This second Faucet symbol indicates

that the boiler is currently in the DHW mode and is raising the temperature of the domestic

water to the DHW set point. Once the DHW demand has been satisfied, the boiler will switch

back to the space heating mode. The second Faucet symbol will change to a heating circuit

symbol, indicating that the boiler is back in the space heating mode.
The following procedures describe the wiring connection and Controller configuration setting

needed to provide domestic hot water (DHW) using a tank sensor installed in a thermowell.

6.4.1 Sensor Wiring Connections

To monitor the DHW temperature, connect the tank sensor wire leads to Connector 1,

Terminals 6 (F6) and 7 (GND) on the rear of the Controller. After the sensor is connected, turn

the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position, then back to the ON position. This is necessary to

ensure that the Controller recognizes the added sensor.
