In general, the top terminals of the AQ2000 Series components
carry low voltage (24 Vac) powe r and the bottom terminals
carry line voltage (120 Vac) power. This is illustrated in Fig. 1.
The two exceptions to this are:
1. AQ15740B Zoning Module for use with zone valves with
end switches.
2. AQ15540B Zoning Module when used with low voltage
zone valves without
end switches.
For these the two exceptions, the bottom terminals of the
Transformer and Control Module carry line voltage (120 Vac),
but the bottom terminals of the Zoning Module will carry low
voltage (24 Vac) power.
The powered terminals on the bottom of the AQ2000 Series
Control Modules and Zoning Modules are connected internally
as shown in Fig. 2. The voltage supplied to the N and L
terminals is also available at the adjacent terminal pairs when
the hot ( ) relays are switched.

3WIRING PROCEDURE
The AQ25A Control Panel is pre-wired at the factory, making
for faster installation.
For all models, the low voltage output terminals located at the
top of the transformer secondary are wired to the R and C input
terminals of the Control Module, as well as the R and C inputs
of the Zoning Module. The B-B Exp. Bus terminals (21 and 22)
of the Control Module are wired to the B-B Exp. Bus IN
terminals of the Zoning Module.
Beginning with the top left of Fig. 4 on page 6 and moving
clockwise around the panel, wire components to the AQ25A
Control Panel and Expansion Zoning Panels (if installed) in the
following six steps:
• “Step 1 – Transformer Wiring” on page 6

Step 2 – Control Panel Wiring
Wire the Temperature Sensors, System Demands, Low
Voltage Outputs, and Communication Bus (Refer to Fig. 5 for
wiring terminals on the top of the AQ25A):
In addition to the pre-wiring, run low voltage jumper wires from
available R and C terminals to the R and C terminals of any
Expansion Zoning Panel.

Temperature Sensor Wiring
Connect the lead wires of each sensor to the corresponding
terminals on top of the AQ15A Control Module. See Fig. 5.
The Boiler Supply and Return sensors can be installed either
as strap-on sensors or inserted into an immersion well that is
packed with thermally conductive paste.
BOILER SUPPLY AND RETURN SENSORS.
Both
the Supply and Return Sensors should be installed on the
supply and return piping of the boiler for proper operation of
the AQ25A Control Panel. Even if the AQ25A is connected to a
modulating condensing boiler with its own supply and/or return
sensors, the AQ25A’s sensors should still be installed for the
control to operate.
The Boiler Supply water sensor should be installed on the
supply piping close to the exit port of the boiler, using one of
the AQ12C11 strap-on sensors supplied with the AQ25A (see
Fig. 6 on page 7).
69-2119—056

M13775
piping as close to the entrance port to the boiler as practical,
using the other AQ12C11 strap-on sensor supplied with the
AQ25A.
The correct location is one that will measure the temperature of
all combined sources of water returning back to the boiler.
Insulate strap-on sensors with pipe wrap to ensure accurate
boiler temperature sensing.
The Boiler Supply and Return water sensors come with 10 ft.
(3m) of wire to minimize the need for splicing.

Fig. 7. Outdoor temperature sensor installation.
Fig. 6. Strap-on temperature sensor installation.
OUTDOOR SENSOR: FOR USE WITH AQ1000 THERMOSTATS
IMPORTANT
The AQ25A is not
an Outdoor Reset Boiler Control
Panel. The purpose of the outdoor sensor is to
communicate the outdoor temperature to the
AQUATROL network for display on all AQ1000
thermostats.
The outdoor sensor should be located:
• in a shady location out of direct sunlight
• at least three feet from dryer, bathroom, or other vents
• above the expected snow line where ice and debris
cannot cover it
• on the North side of the building.
See Fig. 7 for typical placement. Outdoor sensor comes with
10 ft. (3 m) of wire to facilitate splicing the sensor on the interior
of the building. Alternatively, if the building is equipped with a
continuous fresh air supply using, for example, an air-to-air
heat exchanger, the outdoor sensor may be installed in the
insulated portion of the ventilation intake duct, taking care not
to expose the sensor to direct or indirect sunlight.
IMPORTANT
Do not run sensor wires parallel, or close, to
telephone, Ethernet, or power cables. Cross all
power, Ethernet, and telephone wiring at right angles.
If sensor wires are located in an area with strong
sources of electromagnetic interference, or EMI, (e.g.,
if sensor wires are run in the same electrical chase as
line voltage wiring) use twisted pair, shielded cable, or
run wires in a grounded metal conduit. This is
important, since the calculated temperature - based
on the sensor's resistance reading - can be distorted
by high EMI, potentially causing the AQ25A to not
operate properly. If using shielded cable or conduit,
connect the shield wire to earth ground only

at the
any other location or electromagnetic shielding will be
ineffective. If shielded cable is used, Honeywell
recommends the use of shielded cable with a
continuous ground plane, such as foil, with an integral
drain wire for bonding to earth ground.
System Demands Wiring
Additional information about settings for the various System
Demands is discussed in Table 6 on page 30.

The Aux-In contact closure sets the system into a specific state
as determined by the installer setup using the EQUIPMENT

HEAT DEMAND
If the optional Heat Demand (terminals 11 and 12) will be used,
wire them to a system setpoint demand (dry contact closure),
such as a pool or spa Aquastat®.
The HEAT contact closure drives the system to control either at
the Reset temperature or the Setpoint temperature as
determined by the installer setup using the EQUIPMENT

minutes of a call for heat and then allows the space heati ng
needs to be added in for the next 30 minutes. This cycle
continues until the call for heat is satisfied.
DOMESTIC HOT WATER
Wire the DHW (terminals 13 and 14) to the Aquastat or
thermostat on the domestic hot water tank.
DHW priority allows only
DHW heat for the first 30 minutes of a
call for DHW and then allows the space heating needs to be
added in for the next 30 minutes. This cycle continues until the
call for DHW is satisfied.
NOTE: If the AQ25A is connected to a modulating
condensing boiler with built-in DHW management, the
DHW tank’s Aquastat should be connected to the
AQ25A's DHW (terminals 13 and 14). The AQ25A's
Aux. Out (terminals 19 and 20) should be wired to the
boiler's DHW input terminals to the AQ25A.
Low Voltage Outputs Wiring
10 VDC
The 10 Vdc terminals (15 and 16) of the AQ25A produce a
modulating (0-10 Vdc or 2-10 Vdc) signal that can drive a
modulating boiler’s combustion fan to maintain a constant
supply temperature from the boiler (generally equal to the
Boiler High Limit setting in the EQUIPMENT SETUP > BOILER
SETTINGS sub-menu).
Boiler Signal: If the AQ25A panel is configured to send a
0-10V or 2-10V signal to a modulating/condensing
boiler, connect the AQ25A ’ s modulating output terminals
(15 and 16) to the modulating signal input on the boiler
control.
These contacts are made any time the system has a request
for boiler operation, unless the water supply temperature is
above the target temp at that time, at which time the system
primary boiler pump would come on.
AUX-OUT
If the Auxiliary Out low voltage output will be used, wire it now
to the device that will be switched when the Auxiliary Out’s dry
contacts close. Wire the hot leg of the device through the Aux.
Out connection (terminals 19 and 20).
The Aux-Out relay contacts close to correspond with an action
as determined by the installer setup using the EQUIPMENT
SETUP > AUXILIARY I/O sub-menu (see Fig. 25 on page 38).
NOTE: The Aux. Out contacts are rated for low voltage
devices only.
Communication Bus Wiring
All AQ2000 components communicate with each other on the
AQUATROL network using communication bus wiring. This
wiring must
features that depend on this networked communication (e.g.,
zone synchronization, outdoor temperature displayed on
thermostats, etc.) will not function.
The communication bus wiring is polarity insensitive. The
installer does not need to worry about a +ve or –ve orientation
of the wires. If there are two wires connected between the B-B
Bus Exp. In on one module and B-B Bus Exp. Out on another
module, there will be communication. See example in Fig. 8 for
how this wiring is to be installed.
The communication bus connections are pre-wired at the
factory for AQ25A Control Panels.
connect all AQ2000 components. Otherwise

Wire the Boiler dry contact output (terminals 17 and 18) to the
T-T terminals on the boiler Aquastat or the boiler's control
panel. See Fig. 15 on page 12 for wiring connections to a
typical boiler Aquastat.

Step 3 – Thermostats Wiring
NOTE: The new AQ2000 panels will work with digital (elec-
tronic) non-communicating thermostats. AQ1000
thermostats are not required.
WHEN USING AQ1000 THERMOSTATS:
1. Using low voltage thermostat wire, connect one AQ1000
communicating thermostat from each zone to the
corresponding TH inputs on top of the Zoning Module
(see Fig. 9 on page 9).
2. If there are additional zones (on Expansion Zoning
Panels) connected to this Zoning Module, run low
voltage thermostat wiring from the B-B Exp. Bus Out
connection (terminals 13 and 14) of the Zoning Module
to the B-B Exp. Bus. In connection (terminals 3 and 4) on
the Expansion Zoning Panel.
IMPORTANT
Do not run thermostat wires parallel, or close, to
telephone, Ethernet, or power cables. Cross all
power, Ethernet, and telephone wiring at right angles.
If thermostat wires are located in an area with strong
sources of electromagnetic interference, or EMI, (e.g.,
if thermostat wires are run in the same electrical
chase as line voltage wiring) use twisted pair,
shielded cable, or run wires in a grounded metal
conduit.
This is important because the AQ1000 thermostats
are communicating thermostats which send and
received data via the two wires connecting them to
the Zoning Module. This data can be distorted by the
EMI, potentially causing the AQ25A to not operate
properly.
3. Run low voltage thermostat wiring from the R and C
terminals on the AQ25A Control Panel’s transformer to
the R and C terminals on the Expansion Zoning Panel.
As an alternative, you can run low voltage thermostat
wiring from the R and C terminals on the Zoning Module
to the R and C terminals on the Expansion Zoning Panel.
Step 4 – Zoning Equipment Wiring
Because the Zoning Module of the AQ25A Control Panel can
be used with either line voltage pumps or valves, or low voltage
zone valves (with or without end switches), field installed wiring
of the correct voltage needs to be connected to the zoning
equipment terminals on the bottom left portion of the Zoning
Module.
Line Voltage – Circulators or Zone Valves
Refer to Fig. 10. Remove the plastic wiring barrier that is
located in the bottom wiring channel between the AQ15A
Control Module and the Zoning Module. Run jumper wires from
the N and L terminals on the bottom of the AQ25A Control
Panel’s transformer, through the wiring channel across the
bottom of the Control Panel, and to the corresponding N and L
terminals of the Zoning Module.

NOTE: When wiring zone valves with end switches, note the
transformer's VA:
If low voltage zone valves with end switches are used
for zone control, make sure the selected zone valves
do not draw more power (VA) than the 38 VA capacity
of the AQ10X38 transformer supplied with the AQ25A
Control Panel. This integral transformer has enough
power to operate 4 motorized zone valves (such as
Honeywell V8043E valves or 4 valves using lowamperage draw, heat motor actuators such as
Honeywell MV100 actuators), plus power the
electronics of the AQ25A's Control Module and up to
16 AQ1000 thermostats.
If zone valves with high-amperage draw, heat motor
actuators are used, such as Taco 500 series zone
valves, additional 24 Vac transformer capacity will
need to be wired to the Zoning Module to power the
valves. See Fig. 14 on page 11 for recommended
wiring of additional low voltage VA capacity to
AQ2000 Series Zoning Modules.
Equipment Damage Hazard.
Can damage internal circuitry of Zoning Module.
The ES1 and ES2 terminals of the AQ15740B Zoning
Module are powered terminals and must only
be
connected to a set of dry contacts, such as a zone
valve motor's end switch. If power is applied to these
contacts (for example, by running line voltage through
the zone valves’ end switches to bring on a circulator
feeding those valves), the internal circuitry of the
Zoning Module will be damaged, in which case the
warranty for this product will be voided.

1. Boiler Pump
Connect the N and L wires of the boiler loop pump to the N and
switched hot ( ) terminals of the line voltage Boiler output,
shown in Fig. 17 on page 13. The ground wire of the pump can
be connected to any of the 8 ground screw terminals located
on the back surface of the Control Panel enclosure.
The boiler pump contacts are made after any one of the
following occur:
• A call for heat has occurred from any heating zone.
• The Heat input is shorted on terminals 11 and 12.
• The DHW input is shorted and
as a valve.
The pump is delayed for the FIRE DELAY programmed in the
EQUIPMENT SETUP > BOILER OPERATION sub-menu (see
Fig. 25 on page 38). The boiler pump and the last zone calling
remain on in order to move heat out of the boiler for the period
of time programmed in the Purge time menu under the fire
delay. Manually adjusting thermostats affects the operation of
this software so it can not be tested manually, you must
observe it under normal operating conditions.

the AQ25A. Confirm this
2. DHW Device
Wire the DHW pump or line voltage zone valve to the N and
switched hot ( ) terminals of the DHW output as shown in
Fig. 17 on page 13. If using a low voltage zone valve, wire the
primary of a spud-mounted transformer (115V to 24V) to the
DHW line voltage contacts and connect the low voltage zone
valve to the secondary terminals of this transformer. A spudmounted transformer may be located in one of the conduit
knockouts on the bottom of the AQ25A Control Panel.
Alternatively, a 24 Vac zone valve can be connected to the
Aux. pump line voltage-rated dry contacts which can be
configured to close on a DHW call. This configuration is
defined in the Installer Equipment Setup menu beginning on
page 30.
The DHW contacts are made when the DHW inputs on
terminals 13 and 14 are shorted by the controlling Aquastat.
This is a line voltage output designed to go to the DHW pump.
If 24 Vac is needed for a low voltage valve, you can mount a
step-down transformer on the conduit opening and wire the
valve from the transformer. When DHW is enabled, the system
has a 30 minute priority over all calls for heat. After 30 minutes,
calls for heat are added back in to the operation for 30 minutes
and then turned off again. This repeats until the DHW is
satisfied.
NOTE: If the AQ25A is connected to a modulating
condensing boiler, the DHW pump will probably need
to be connected to the boiler, not

3. Line Voltage Rated Aux Output (Aux. Pump)
To connect a line voltage auxiliary device to these contacts,
such as a group pump or a boiler bypass pump, power the
pump from the N and L terminals on the bottom of the AQ15A
Control Module, running the L (hot) lead through the
AUX.Pump contacts. See Fig. 16 for details.
The Aux Pump is a line voltage rated dry contact that is
controlled by the selection in the EQUIPMENT SETUP >
AUXILIARY I/O sub-menu (see Fig. 25 on page 38).
BY-PASS PUMP
Fig. 16. Wiring of the Aux. pump line voltage rated dry contacts [example shown is for a by-pass pump].
NOTE: Use of this output is optional. The Aux. pump dry
contacts are line voltage-rated but unpowered. A low
voltage device can be connected to these
programmable contacts, but the wire's insulation must
meet applicable codes for use in line voltage
enclosures.
See page 30 for programming options for the Aux.
Pump dry contacts.
Wire the Installer-defined AUXiliary output to the line voltage
AUX terminals, as shown in Fig. 17. The exact wiring
schematic will depend on what is connected to these dry
contacts.
M27764A
Fig. 17. Wiring for Boiler Pump, DHW Device, and Aux Output.
Step 6 – Connection to Line Voltage Power
Connect the N and L line voltage inputs of the primary on the
AQ25A transformer to the electrical distribution panel and
power up the Control. A service switch should be installed on
the hot (L) lead to the distribution panel.
Fig. 18. Connections for multiple Zoning Panels - parallel wiring.
If multiple Zoning Modules are connected to the AQ25A
Control Panel, the line voltage wiring can either be run directly
from the N and L terminals on the transformer to each Zoning
Module (Fig. 18) or run in a daisy chain fashion from the N and
L terminals of one AQ2000 component to the N and L
terminals of the next AQ2000 (see Fig. 19 on page 14).
Electrical Shock or Equipment Damage Hazard.
Can shock individuals or short equipment circuitry.
When line voltage is applied to the AQ25A Control
Panel and the front cover of the Panel is removed,
there is a risk of electrocution. Be careful to avoid
contact with the line voltage (N and L) terminals, either
with your fingers or with metal tools (such as a
screwdriver) when power is applied to the Control
Panel.
4PROGRAM AND CONFIGURE THE
CONTROL PANEL
Only two steps are required to set up the AQ25A Series
Control Panel:
1. Check the program settings for the Control Module:
Operation of the AQ25A's Control Module is set by the
menu selections accessible through the Control
Module’s LCD screen. See “AQ25A – System
Programming” on page 16 for instructions.
2. Check the DIP switch settings for each Zoning Module.
Control Panel Defaults
Operation of the AQ25A Control Module is set by the menu
selections accessible through the Control Module’s LCD
screen. See “AQ25A – System Programming” on page 16 for
instructions.
The AQ25A Control Panels are shipped from the factory with
pre-defined values for all program settings. These factory
default settings are commonly used by hydronics contractors
across North America. Usually, most of the settings only need
to be checked by the installing contractor to make sure they
are suitable for the job, rather than having to input all the
settings from scratch.
Although these factory default values for the Control Module
and each Zoning Module are suitable for many installations,
Honeywell recommends that they be reviewed, and changed
as necessary, to get optimal performance of the hydronic
system controlled by the AQ2000 Series products.
Zoning Module DIP Switch Location
The AQ15540B (pump Zoning Module) and AQ15740B (valves
with end switches Zoning Module) both have DIP switches in
8-switch banks and are concealed behind snap-on covers as
shown in Fig. 20.
Fig. 20. Location of Zoning Modules DIP switches.
Zoning Module DIP Switch Settings
A chart of the different sett ing s for each DIP switch is atta ched
to the inside of each DIP switch cover.
Refer to Table 2 on page 15, and check all DIP switch settings.
If necessary, change the switch settings to suit the desired
operation of the hydronic installation.
NOTES:
1.To set DIP switches 1 through 4, which identify the
unique address of each zone on the AQUATROL
network):
Refer to the descriptions in Table 2 for the correct
DIP switch settings for the Pump or Valve Zoning
Module.
Unpredictable zone behavior may occur if more
than one Zoning Module has DIP switches (1-4)
set to the same address.
2.DIP Switch 5 enables or disables Zone
Synchronization:
• The factory setting enables Zone Synchronization,
which is an energy saving feature of the AQ2000
panels. Zone Synchronization coordinates zone
demands to start at the same time when the boiler
cycle begins. The AQ2000 functions as activating
valves. The valve logic induces a delay before
activating the boiler pump even when zone pumps
are used. When Zone Synchronization is not
selected, the zone demands are served whenever
they call for heat.

• The Zone Synchronization feature replaces the
pump/valve selection of previous AQ2000 versions.
When you finish setting the DIP switches for all the Zoning
Modules, replace the front cover of the AQ25A Control Panel
and the cover of each Expansion Zoning Panel.
Review the settings of all DIP switches for each Zoning Module
connected to an AQ15A, to ensure they are correct before
system start-up.
NOTE: The snap-on DIP switch covers are designed so they
cannot be removed (exposing the DIP switches)
when the front cover of the AQ25A Control Panel is in
place.

5TEST AND CHECK OUT THE
INSTALLATION
Startup
IMPORTANT
Apply power to the AQ25A Control Panel only after
of the AQ2000 SERIES components (Control Panel,
thermostats, sensors, Zoning Panels) have been
connected to the other equipment in the hydronic
heating system (boiler, zone valves or pumps, DHW,
Aquastat, etc.).
When powered, the AQ25A Control Panel begins its start-up
routine, establishing communication with all other AQ2000
Series components on the AQUATROL network.
Test
The TEST feature enables the installer to checkout all of the
system’s outputs, sensors, and zone equipment as part of
system commissioning (Checkout).
The TEST operation is accessed from the Installer Menu
option EQUIPMENT SETUP >TEST AND PURGE. To begin
testing the installation, position the indicator arrow beside
the equipment group to be tested (OUTPUTS, SENSORS, or
ZONES) and press the OK button.
TEST OUTPUTS
• When TEST OUTPUTS is selected, the AQ25A LCD
displays a list of all outputs that can be tested. To select an
output to test, position the indicator arrow beside that
output and press the + button to activate the output's relay.
As each output is activated, a word icon for that output is
all
displayed at the top or bottom of the LCD display (refer to
Fig. 22 on page 16). The test routine activates the output
relay until the “–” button is pressed to turn off that output.
• To test additional outputs, navigate the list using the up and
down arrows (
beside that output and press the + button to begin testing.
Press the “–” button to de-activate the output relay and stop
its test.
• Any combination of outputs can be activated at the same
time when testing the outputs.
• When finished testing the outputs, press the Menu button to
return to the TEST AND PURGE sub-menu.
TEST SENSORS
When TEST SENSORS is selected, the AQ25A LCD displays
the temperature that each of the SUPPLY, RETURN,
SECONDARY and OUTDOOR sensors is measuring. If a
sensor is malfunctioning or is not properly connected to the
AQUATROL network, the value “- -” displays beside that
sensor on the LCD, instead of its temperature. If any of the
sensors reports a temperature that is illogical, investigate
further by referring to “Troubleshooting” on page 20.
TEST ZONES
• When TEST ZONES is selected, the Installer can test all
space heating zones connected to the AQ25A
simultaneously or individually.
• If zones are tested simultaneously (TEST ALL ZONES), all
zone outputs energize immediately (with a delay of 1/10th of
a second between each pump or valve to minimize the
chance of electrical circuit overloads caused by the inrush
currents from the pumps’ motors).
• A zero (0) displayed after a zone’s ID address (e.g., Zone
A1 0, A2 0, A16 0) indicates that the AQ25A Control Module
has received confirmation that the zone’s pump or valve is
closed, or OFF. Similarly, a one (1) displayed after a zone’s
ID address (e.g., Zone A1 1, A2 1, A16 1) indicates that the
AQ25A has received confirmation that the zone’s pump or
valve is open, or ON.
• For zone pumps or zone valves without endswitches, a 1 is displayed as soon as the pump is
energized.
• For zone valves with end-switches, a 1 is displayed
only after the valve's end switch makes or the
valve's Time To Open delay has expired (for use
with 2-wire valves).
• To test zones individually, position the indicator arrow
beside a selected zone and press the + button to energize
it, and press the – button to de-energize it. As each zone is
tested, the Status LED on the Zoning Module associated
with that zone illuminates. T o test additional zones, position
the indicator arrow beside the zone to be tested, press
the “+” button to energize the zone’s pump or valve, and
then press the “–” button to de-energize it.
• Any combination of zones can be activated at the same
time when testing the zones.
• When finished testing the zones, press the MENU button to
return to the SETUP >TEST AND PURGE menu.

The PURGE operation on the AQ25A Control Panel allows the
installer to purge all zones (loops) sequentially, or each zone
individually, for a period of time, PURGE TIME, which selected
from the EQUIPMENT SETUP>TEST AND PURGE>PURGE
sub-menu. The purge time can be adjusted in increments of 1
minute, up to a maximum of 30 minutes per loop to be purged.
After you have defined which loops to purge (all loops, or an
individual loop) and for how long (using the AQ25A’s menus),
position the indicator arrow beside the START PURGE
option and press the OK button. The START PURGE display
will change to STOP PURGE and the AQ25A display begins
counting down the time remaining for the purge cycle.
Purging All Loops
When the purge time has elapsed for the first loop, the control
proceeds to the next loop and performs the purge operation on
each loop in sequential order. After all selected loops have
been purged, the display shows PURGE COMPLETED.
7DOCUMENT AND KEEP A RECORD
OF ALL SYSTEM SETTINGS
After the AQ25A Series Control Panel has been set up, and the
entire hydronic installation is operating properly, it is important
to document all the system settings for future reference.
Job Records
All AQ2000 Series Panels are shipped with Installation Job
Records for documenting these settings. These should be filled
out completely and saved in the Installing Contractor’s files.
NOTES: There are two classes of settings used by the AQ25A
to control the operation of the heating system, Zone
Settings and System (or Equipment) Settings. Both
types of settings are stored in non-volatile memory
and are not lost following an extended power
disruption.
WHEN USING AQ1000 THERMOSTATS
1.Zone Settings are designed to be adjustable by the
user or the installer and are stored in the faceplate
of each zone's AQ1000 thermostat. These settings
are not saved
the faceplates of two AQ1000 thermostats are
switched, the settings (setpoints, zone minimum,
zone maximum, etc.) will also be switched.
2.System Settings are designed to be adjustable
only
by the system installer and are stored in the
AQ15A Control Module. These are the settings
that are saved with the SAVE SETUP operation.
SAVE Feature
In addition to the hardcopy Installation Job Records, the
AQ25A Control Panel has a convenient SAVE feature that
allows the installing contractor to save the specific equipment
setting for this installation in the AQ25A’s memor y for future
recall, in case the system’s settings are inadvertently changed.
This feature is found in the EQUIPMENT SETUP >
SAVE/RESTORE sub-menu.
There are three levels of settings in the AQ25A’s memory –
CURRENT, FACTORY and SETUP.
• CURRENT settings are the settings that are currently
displayed in any of the menus and are the settings that the
AQ25A uses to operate. Any time a value is changed in any
of the menus, the CURRENT settings are changed and
these new settings are instantly used by the AQ25A Control
Panel.
• FACTORY settings are the default values loaded at the
factory and are the starting point for programming the
AQ25A. These values are permanently stored in memory
and cannot be over-written or erased. The AQ25A can be
restored to factory settings through the RESTORE
FACTORY option in the SAVE / RESTORE sub-menu. A
warning prompt, RESTORE FACTORY—ARE YOU
SURE?, displays and YES or NO must be chosen before
proceeding. If YES is selected, the FACTORY settings are
with the SAVE SETUP operation. If

be copied to the AQ25A’s CURRENT settings and the
Control Panel begins to operate with these values
immediately.
• SETUP settings are the specific settings for this installation
which an installer has saved after the AQ25A is set up and
operating well. These are saved for future recall, in case the
system’s settings are inadvertently changed.
— T o save this installation's settings for the first time, go to
the EQUIPMENT SETUP > SAVE/RESTORE submenu. Position the indicator arrow beside SAVE
SETUP and press OK. This saves the current system
settings to the SETUP values.
— To retrieve the SETUP values at any time in the future,
go to the EQUIPMENT SETUP > SAVE/RESTORE
sub-menu and select RESTORE SETUP to load those
values into the AQ25A as the CURRENT settings. The
system will now operate according to these retrieved
settings.
— If the current settings are modified after a RESTORE
SETUP operation is performed, simply select SAVE
SETUP again to overwrite these new settings into the
SAVE settings memory.
If you change any system settings after a
RESTORE SETUP operation, you change the
current settings that the AQ25A uses as its basis of
operation.
TR OUBLESHOOTING
The following information helps the installer correctly identify
system problems, making troubleshooting much faster.
Table 3 and Table 4, beginning on page 21, describe the
possible error codes and status notices that can be
communicated on the AQ155 / AQ157 Zoning Modules'
diagnostic LEDs.
This diagnostic information is very valuable and the System
Status page is the first place a contractor should look for
information when troubleshooting system problems.
Communications Loss
Because all AQ2000 Series components communicate with
each other via the dedicated AQUATROL network when
controlling a hydronic system, one possible failure mode of the
AQ25A would be loss of communication between the AQ15A
Control Module and any connected Zoning Modules, or
between a Zoning Module and any zone thermostats
connected to the AQUATROL network. In general, the Control
Module:
• Periodically tries to re-establish communication with any
lost components on the network.
• Initializes any component that re-establishes its
communication.
• Displays an error code on the AQ25A’s System Status
page, until the error is corrected and/or communication is
re-established.
Control Module Reaction
When the AQ15A Control Module loses communication with
any number of zones for more than one minute (as long as
there’s still at least one zone communicating on the
AQUATROL network), the AQ25A continues to deliver heat to
the other non-communicating zones and the address of each
lost zone (e.g., A-7, B-4) displays on the System Status page.
When communication is lost with all
BOILER FREEZE PROTECTION mode, in which it fires the
boiler and then activates the Boiler (supply) pump and zone
equipment for a period of 10 minutes every hour. This should
provide sufficient heat to the system to prevent a building from
freezing up until communication is re-established between the
AQ2000 Series components.
BOILER FREEZE PROTECTION mode is disabled when the
outdoor temperature is above the warm weather shutdown
(WWSD) temperature setting.
zones, the AQ25A enters
System Status Information
To aid in troubleshooting hydronic systems controlled by an
AQ25A, the operational status of the system is shown on the
System Status page. Status notices and error messages
display here as appropriate, i.e., only those that are pertinent
to the system’s current operation will be displayed. See T able 4
on page 21 for a complete list of status notices and error
messages. The System Status page is available from the User
Menu.
When a new AQ2000 component is connected on the
AQUATROL network, its settings are communicated to the
AQ25A Control Module within 10 seconds of being connected.
If the component is an AQ1000 thermostat, the setpoints for
that zone thermostat can be modified from the AQ25A Control
Module as soon as it is recognized.
When an AQ1000 thermostat is disconnected from the
AQUATROL network, a message displays on the System
Status page of the AQ25A indicating “Lost Zone A-xx”, where
“xx” is the specific identity, or address, of the lost zone. This
helps the servicing contractor quickly identify the lost zone and
fix its wiring to re-establish communication with the AQ25A
Control Module.
69-2119—0520
Zoning Module Reaction
When a Zoning Module loses communication with the Control
Module (as long as there is at least one other Zoning Module
communicating with the Control Module), the Zoning Module
operates its pumps or valves in a conventional, nonsynchronized zoning fashion. That is, it operates according to
the demands from the thermostats, without zone
synchronization or waiting for permission from the AQ15A
Control Module to operate. This allows the zones to extract any
heat provided by the boiler.
When using AQ1000 thermostats and communication is lost
between a Zoning Module and any of its thermostats, that zone
enters Single Zone Freeze Protection mode. In this mode, the
zoning equipment is operated for an amount of time equal to
one-half of the maximum demand of all other zones on the
network. This helps prevent the lost zone from freezing. This is
especially helpful if a zone's thermostat is removed from the
wall while a room is being painted. When used with 2-stage
thermostat operation, only the first stage will be activated in the
freeze protection mode.
When using digital, non-communicating thermostats other than
the AQ1000, the Single Zone Freeze Protection is disabled for
those zones.
Page 21
AQ25A SERIES PROGRAMMABLE BOILER CONTROL PANELS
Single Zone Freeze Protection mode is disabled when the
outdoor temperature is above the warm weather shutdown
(WWSD) temperature setting.
The AQ25A provides Zoning Module diagnostic information via
the DIAGNOSTIC LEDs located above the DIP switches on its
Zoning Module(s), as well as on the System Status menu of the
LCD display.
If a zone becomes disconnected from the Control Module or is
malfunctioning (i.e., lost), this can be seen in the ZONE
COUNT value on the AQ25A's Home Page display (Detail view
only). The ZONE COUNT represents the number of zones on
the AQUATROL network at any given time. When a zone is
lost, the ZONE COUNT decreases by one. Because an
installer knows how many zones are installed, if there is a
difference between the actual number of installed zones and
the ZONE COUNT, the installer will know to look for the
zone(s).
The identity of lost zones displays in the System S tatus page
as LOST ZONE A-X:
• A identifies the Control Module of the lost zone, and B, C, or
D identify an AQ25400B Add-A-Temperature Expansion
Control Panel. This prefix can be set or changed on the
AQ254 Panels.
• X identifies the lost zone (1 through 16).
Boiler Freeze Protection (not network communication
related)
If the boiler supply temperature sensor measures 50°F (10°F)
or less, the boiler fires and the boiler pump, secondary pump
etc. operate until the target temperature is achieved, as
measured by the supply temperature sensor. This target
temperature is the reset temp (if the boiler RESET parameter =
OUTDOOR). Or it is the AQ25A’s BOILER HIGH LIMIT (if the
boiler RESET parameter = LOAD or NONE). DHW and Heat
Demand calls are ignored when the system is in freeze
protection mode.
Power Disruption
The AQ25A’s system and thermostat parameters are stored in
non-volatile memory and are updated as they are changed.
When a power disruption occurs, the system configuration is
retained in memory. When power is restored, the AQ25A
Control Panel enters auto-detection mode, reads its
previously-stored settings, and initializes all AQUATROL
network components according to their saved parameters.
Power Disruption Greater Than 2 Hours
If a power disruption lasts for more than 2 hours, the AQ25A
will have discharged its internal super capacitor, and the DA TE
and TIME OF DAY settings will need to be reset.
Upon restart, the AQ25A displays its clock settings as: YEAR =
2008, MONTH = JAN, DATE = 1. The message PLS SET DAY/
TIME displays and optionally, the AQ25A's backlight flashes
repeatedly. This displayed message continues until the DATE
and TIME OF DAY are updated. The AQ25A remains
permanently in OCCUPIED (or Comfort) mode until the DATE
and TIME OF DAY are updated.

operating the boiler. The same differential is used for both
the HIGH LIMIT and the LOW LIMIT.
• If AUTO is selected, the differential is calculated
automatically by the AQ25A to maximize comfort and
minimize boiler short cycling.
• If a specific boiler differential (BOILER DIFF) is
selected, the AQ25A will apply 1/2 of this differential
above the AQ25A's HIGH LIMIT boiler setting and the
other 1/2 below the HIGH LIMIT setting when
controlling the boiler supply water temperature.
• For example, if the High Limit = 190°F and the Boiler
Diff = 10°F, the High Limit range becomes 185-195°F.
NOTE: This formula also applies to the boiler differential
around the AQ25A’s LOW LIMIT.
Warm Weather Shut Down is the outdoor temperature
above which the AQ25A will not allow hot water to be sent
to a space heating zone. The boiler still operates to supply
