The Eclipse Combustion Bi-Flame Burner Monitoring System
controls the start-up sequence and monitors the flame of two
individual gas, oil, or combination gas/oil burners connected to a
common valve train. Its dynamic on-board testing checks for
faulty relays, proof of valve closure, high and low fire switch
interlocks, and shorted air switch.
The microcomputer based system features a plug-in modular
design so any of the circuit board modules attached to the
motherboard can be replaced when power is removed. Its DIP
switches allow sequence and timing functions, as well as system
configuration. It is also capable of modulation (high and low fire
purging) and monitoring up to four auxiliary inputs, history
logging, and interfacing to valve leakage detection devices. It is UL
recognized, FM approved and CSA certified.

In this section, you will find descriptions of the various modules
which comprise the Bi-Flame dual burner flame monitoring system,
whether standard or optional items.
Relay Module
The relay module contains the output relays which provide power
for operating the ignition coil, pilot valve, main valve, combustion
fan and alarm. This module is mounted in the first position on the
left of the motherboard closest to the output terminals.
Logic Module
The logic module houses the microcomputer which provides all
the sequential logic and safety start-up and shutdown circuitry. On
the front of this module is the reset, scan and enter push-buttons,
and status lights. This module is mounted in the second position
from the left of the motherboard next to the relay module.
Power Module
10
The power module supplies the power required for the electronic
circuitry. It is mounted in the motherboard to the right of the logic
module. The green LED on the front indicates that power is on to
the Bi-Flame.
The sensor module is the flame sensing module of the Bi-Flame. It is
mounted in the furthest right position of the mother board.
On the front of the sensor module are two “Flame On” LED’s, which
illuminate when a flame is detected at the corresponding burner.
Directly below the “Flame ON” LED are “Flame Fail” LED’s, which
energize to show the first burner to lose its signal.
The sensor module incorporates test point connection jacks in the
front of the unit. Using these, the flame signal strength of each burner
can be measured using a 0-15 VDC, one meg ohm/v olt meter as
explained and shown in “Flame Signal Strength” on page 30.
Remote Display
The remote display provides alphanumeric messages which indicate
burner status as well as annunciate lockout condition in the Bi-Flame
system. It also provides remote reset, a keypad and history logging
capability.
A cable connects the remote display to the motherboard; this cable is
available in six and 10 feet lengths.
INTRODUCTIONThis section details the location, selection and description of the
Bi-Flame DIP switches, which allow for sequence and timing functions as well as system configuration.
Caution:
To avoid electric shock, shut off the power supply when installing
any control device. Flame monitoring systems must be installed
by a qualified, licensed technician.

DIP SWITCHLOCA TION
DIP SWITCHACCESS
All of the DIP switches are located in the logic module, which is
mounted in the second position from the left of the motherboard
next to the relay module (see page 10 for logic module location).
To gain access to the DIP switches, remove the circuit board
cover. To do this, remove the four screws which hold the cover to
the motherboard. Remove the cover by lifting up and off of the circuit boards. The logic module is the second board from the left.
Gently pull the logic module with a rocking motion to disengage
the terminal pins at the module base. The photo below sh ows
the DIP switch locations.
The S2 DIP switches permit programming of timing and sequence
functions of the Bi-Flame.
Note:
The S2 DIP switch settings at left are for illustrative purposes
only; the actual settings of any of these switches will be
determined by your system conditions.
SW1: Recycling mode selection (On=Recycling; Off=Non-recycling)
SW2: Pilot selection (On=Intermittent, where pilot remains on during
burner cycle; Off =Interrupted, where pilot valve closes after main
burner is established).
SW3: T rial-for -ignition (TFI) range selection; used with SW7 of the S4
DIP switch. See the table at left for proper selection.
SW4 through 8: Purge time selection; switch in off position selects
indicated purge time. Selected purge times are additive. See
illustration at left for exact times.
S4 DIP Switches
SW1: Fan operation on flame failure (on = fan turns off; off = fan stays
on).
SW5: Leak test time (on=110 seconds; off=40 seconds).
SW7: T rial-for -ignition (TFI) range selection; used with SW3 of the S2
DIP switches. See the table at left for proper selection.
SW8: Purge mode; (on = modulation, off = process).
S6 DIP Switches
The S6 DIP switches are factory set for two burners. DO NOT
CHANGE. Any other setting will result in an “UNMATCH#” fault
condition.
SW6: Off, Not used.
SW7: Off, Not used.
SW8: Frequency Selection; (On = 50Hz, Off = 60 Hz)
INTRODUCTIONThis section describes the function features of the Bi-Flame that can
be found on the various terminal strips and the modules of the BiFlame.
Combustion Air Flo w Check Terminal
The Bi-Flame checks that the combustion air flow switch is open before start-up, closed during operation and open again at burner shutdown, thus preventing operation with an air switch that is defective,
maladjusted or jumpered.
Main Fuel Valve Proof-of-Closur e T erminal
The Bi-Flame checks that the main fuel valve is closed before startup and after burner shutdown. This ar rangement requir es a closed
position switch on the main fuel valve.
Low Fire Start Terminal
The system checks for the low fire start position prior to light-off. If
voltage is not present on this terminal within 15 minutes, the Bi-Flame
goes to lockout and alarm.
High Fire Purge Check Terminal
The system checks that the air modulation motor reached the high
fire position during high fire purge. The modulation motor or air
valve must be fitted with a high fire position switch, which is then
connected to the high fire check terminal. An air flow or pressure
switch that is set to prove sufficient purge air may be used instead
of the high fire position switch. If v oltage is not pr esent on this terminal within 15 minutes, the Bi-Flame goes to lockout and alarm.
