The tekmar Universal Reset Control 374 is designed to maximize the comfort and effi ciency provided by a hydronic heating system. The control automatically adjusts the boiler and mix water temperatures that are delivered to the heating system by using outdoor reset. The 374 can control two separate on / off stages (or one low / high fi re) to provide outdoor reset while providing equal run time rotation of the boilers. The 374 can operate two mixing devices, which can be either two variable speed injection pumps or two fl oating action valves. The mixing devices can be used to supply two different reset water temperatures or one reset and one setpoint water temperature to a space heating system. The 374 is capable of controlling an indirect Domestic Hot Water (DHW) storage tank and setpoint load. A large easy to read display provides current system temperatures and operating status. The control has an internal timer, which can have 2 events per day on a 24 hour, 5-1-1 day or 7 day schedule.
Additional functions include:
• Outdoor Reset
• Two Mixing Devices
• Two Boiler Stages
• Two separate mix demands for space heating loads
• Boiler demand for space heating loads
• DHW demand for domestic hot water loads
• Setpoint demand for setpoint loads

POWERING UP THE CONTROL
When the 374 control is powered up, all segments in the LCD are turned on for 2 seconds. Next, the control displays the control type number in the LCD for 2 seconds. Next, the software version is displayed for 2 seconds. Finally, the control enters into the normal operating mode.
TYPES OF DEMANDS
The control can control the supply water temperatures of two mix temperature systems and the boiler supply water temperature. The type of demand the control receives determines the operation of the control.
Boiler Demand
When a boiler demand signal from the heating system is present, the control operates the boiler(s) to maintain the boiler supply temperature based on the outdoor air temperature and the Boiler Characterized Heating Curve settings. Refer to section B.
DHW Demand
When a DHW demand is present, the control operates the boiler(s) to maintain the supply water temperature at least as hot as the DHW exchange setting. Refer to section C.
Setpoint Demand
When a setpoint demand signal is present, the control operates the boiler(s) to maintain the supply water temperature at least as hot as the Setpoint setting. Refer to section D.
Mix 1 Demand
When a mix 1 demand signal from the heating system is present, the control operates the mixing 1 device and the boiler(s) to maintain the mix 1 supply temperature based on the outdoor air temperature and the Mix 1 Characterized Heating Curve settings. Refer to section E.
Mix 2 Demand
When a mix 2 demand signal from the heating system is present, the control operates the mixing 2 device and boiler(s) to maintain the mix 2 supply temperature based on the outdoor air temperature and the Mix 2 Characterized Heating Curve settings or the control can provide a setpoint temperature. Refer to section E.
Design SupplyDesign Supply
CHARACTERIZED HEATING CURVE
The control varies the supply water temperature based on the outdoor air temperature. The control takes into account the type of terminal unit that the system is using. Since different types of terminal units transfer heat to a space using different proportions of radiation, natural convection and forced convection, the supply water temperature must be controlled differently. Once a terminal unit is selected, the control varies the supply water temperature according to the type of terminal unit. This improves the control of the air temperature in the building.
Terminal UnitTerminal Unit
Indoor DesignIndoor Design Outdoor DesignOutdoor Design
Decreasing Outdoor Temperature
TERMINAL UNITS
The control provides for a selection between six different terminal unit types: two types of radiant floor heat, fancoil, fin-tube convector, radiator and baseboard. When a terminal unit is selected, the control automatically loads the design supply temperature, maximum supply temperature, and minimum supply temperature. See section B for Boiler Terminal Units and section E for Mixing Termin a l U n i ts.
High Mass Radiant (1)
This type of a hydronic radiant floor is embedded in either a thick concrete or gypsum pour. This heating system has a large thermal mass and is slow acting.
Increasing Water Temperature
© 2009 D 374 - 03/09 4 of 36
Page 5
Low Mass Radiant (2)
This type of radiant heating system is either attached to the bottom of a wood sub-floor, suspended in the joist space, or sandwiched between the sub-floor and the surface. This type of radiant system has a relatively low thermal mass and responds faster than a high mass system.
Fancoil (3)
A fancoil terminal unit or Air Handling Unit (AHU) consists of a hydronic heating coil and either a fan or blower. Air is forced across the coil at a constant velocity by the fan or blower, and is then delivered into the building space.
Fin-Tube Convector (4)
A convector terminal unit is made up of a heating element with fins on it. This type of terminal unit relies on the natural convection of air across the heating element to deliver heated air into the space. The amount of natural convection to the space is dependant on the supply water temperature to the heating element and the room air temperature.
Radiator (5)
A radiator terminal unit has a large heated surface that is exposed to the room. A radiator provides heat to the room through radiant heat transfer and natural convection.
Baseboard (6)
A baseboard terminal unit is similar to a radiator, but has a low profile and is installed at the base of the wall. The proportion of heat transferred by radiation from a baseboard is greater than that from a fin-tube convector.
OUTDOOR DESIGN TEMPERATURE
The outdoor design temperature is the outdoor air temperature that is the typical coldest temperature of the year where the building is located. This temperature is used when doing the heat loss calculations for the building. If a cold outdoor design temperature is selected, the supply water temperature rises gradually as the outdoor temperature drops. If a warm outdoor design temperature is selected, the supply water temperature rises rapidly as the outdoor temperature drops.
WARM WEATHER SHUT DOWN (OCC AND UNOCC)
The Warm Weather Shut Down (WWSD) disables the space heating system during warm outdoor weather. There is a separate WWSD for both the occupied and the unoccupied periods. When the outdoor air temperature rises above the WWSD setting, the control turns on the WWSD pointer in the display and does not operate the space heating system to satisfy boiler, mix 1 or mix 2 demands. Mix 2 setpoint demands remain active. The control does respond to a DHW demand or a setpoint demand and operates as described in sections C and D.
SETBACK
To provide greater energy savings, the control has a setback feature. With setback, the supply water temperature in the system is reduced when the building is unoccupied. By reducing the supply water temperature, the air temperature in the space may be reduced even when thermostat(s) are not turned down.
The control has an internal setback timer with two events per day on a 24 hour, a 5-1-1 day or a 7 day schedule.
The control also has an external setback input. Any time the UnO Sw (6) and the Com (7) are shorted together, the control operates in the unoccupied mode.
The external setback overrides the internal setback timer schedule to place the control into the unoccupied period.
When in the unoccupied mode, the UNOCC segment is displayed in the LCD. The control adjusts the supply water temperature based on the UNOCC settings made in the control.

FACTORY DEFAU LTS
The control comes preset with several factory defaults. These defaults are based on the terminal unit selection (see section B for Boilers and section E for Mixing Devices). To fine-tune building requirements, these defaults may be changed.
To reload the factory default, power down the control and wait for 10 seconds. Power up the control while simultaneously holding the Menu and buttons. An E01 error occurs forcing the installer to go through the ADJUST menu to ensure the settings are correct.

EXERCISING
The control has a built-in exercising feature, which ensures that each pump or valve is operated at least once every 3 days. If a pump has not been operated at least once every 3 days, the control turns on the output for 10 seconds. This minimizes the possibility of the pump seizing during a long period of inactivity. While the control is exercising, the Te st LED flashes quickly.
Note: The exercising function does not work if power to the control or pumps is disconnected.
BOILER PROTECTION
The control is capable of providing boiler protection from cold mixing system return temperatures. The control protects the boilers by either reducing the variable speed injection pump speeds or by closing the four way valves. This limits the amount of cool return water to the boiler and allows the boiler water temperature to recover.
PRIMARY PUMP OPERATION
The primary pump operates when the control receives boiler, mix 1 or mix 2 demands and is not in Warm Weather Shut Down (WWSD). The primary pump will operate in DHW MODES 3 and 4 when a DHW demand is present. The primary pump also operates in Setpoint MODE 3 during setpoint demands.
Primary Pump Purge
After any demand that operates the primary pump is removed, the control continues to operate the primary pump for an additional 20 seconds.

Section B1: Boiler Reset
BOILER DEMAND
A boiler demand is required in order for the control to provide heat to the heating system. A boiler demand is generated by applying a voltage between 24 and 230 V (ac) across the Boil Dem and Com Dem terminals (30 and 31). Once voltage is applied, the Boiler Demand pointer is displayed in the LCD. If the control is not in Warm Weather Shut Down (WWSD), the control closes the primary pump contact. The control calculates a boiler target supply temperature based on the outdoor air temperature and the boiler characterized heating curve settings. The control then fires the boiler(s), if required, to maintain the boiler target supply temperature.
BOILER SUPPLY SENSOR
The boiler sensor can be located on the boiler supply if the 374 is the only control that is operating the boiler(s). When the Return / Supply DIP switch is set to Supply, the control determines the required operating temperature for the boiler supply and operates the Stage 1 and Stage 2 contacts in order to maintain the correct boiler supply water temperature.

BOILER CHARACTERIZED HEATING CURVE
The boiler(s) have a Boiler Characterized Heating Curve determined by the following settings:
Boiler Design Temperature
The boiler design supply temperature is the supply water temperature required to heat the building when the outdoor air temperature is as cold as the outdoor design temperature.
Boiler Indoor Design Temperature
The indoor design temperature is the room temperature that was used in the original heat loss calculations for the building. This setting establishes the beginning of the boiler characterized heating curve.
Boil Room
The Boil Room setting is the desired room temperature for the building and provides a parallel shift of the boiler characterized heating curve. The room temperature desired by the occupants is often different from the design indoor temperature. If the room temperature is not correct, adjusting the Boil Room setting increases or decreases the amount of heat available to the boiler zones in the building. A Boil Room setting is

Boiler Target Temperature
The boiler target temperature is determined from the boiler characterized heating curve settings and the outdoor air temperature. The control displays the temperature that it is currently trying to maintain as the boiler supply temperature. If the control does not presently have a requirement for heat, it does not show a boiler target temperature. Instead, “– – –” is displayed in the LCD.
Boiler Minimum
The boiler minimum is the lowest temperature that the control is allowed to use as a boiler target temperature. During mild conditions, if the control calculates a boiler target temperature that is below the boiler minimum setting, the boiler target temperature is adjusted to at least the boiler(s) minimum setting. During this condition, if the boiler(s) is operating, the minimum segment is turned on in the display when viewing either the boiler supply temperature or the boiler target temperature. Set the boiler minimum setting to the boiler

manufacturer’s recommended temperature.
Boiler Maximum
The boiler maximum is the highest temperature that the control is allowed to use as a boiler target temperature. If the control does target the boiler maximum setting, and the boiler temperature is near the boiler maximum temperature, the maximum segment will be displayed in the LCD while either the boiler target temperature or the boiler supply temperature is being viewed. At no time does the control operate the boiler(s) above 248°F (120°C).

STAGING
The control operates up to two on / off boiler stages (or one low / high fire) in order to provide the required supply temperature. After a stage is turned on in the firing sequence, the control waits for a minimum time delay. The minimum time delay is adjustable using the Stage Delay setting. After the Stage Delay has expired, the control examines the control error to determine when the next stage is to fire. The control error is determined using Proportional, Integral and Derivative (PID) logic.
Proportional – compares the actual supply temperature to the boiler target temperature. The colder the supply water temperature, the sooner the next stage is turned on.
Integral – compares the actual supply temperature to the boiler target temperature over a period of time.
Derivative – compares how fast or slow the supply water temperature is changing. If the supply temperature is increasing slowly,
the next stage is turned on sooner. If the supply temperature is increasing quickly, the next stage is turned on later, if at all.
ROTATION
The control’s Equal Run Time Rotation function is fixed at 48 hours. The firing order of the boilers changes whenever one boiler accumulates 48 hours more running time than the other boiler. After each rotation, the boiler with the least running hours is the first to fire and the boiler with
12
the most running hours is the last to fire. This function ensures that both boilers receive equal amounts of use. When the Rotate / Off DIP switch is set to the Off position, the firing sequence always begins with boiler
720 hours 672 hours
one and then boiler two.
Note: When using a single two-stage boiler, ensure that the Rotate / Off DIP switch is set to Off.
21
Resetting the Rotation Sequence
To reset the rotation sequence, set the Rotate / Off DIP switch to the Off setting for 5 seconds and then return the DIP switch to the Rotate setting.
672 hours 720 hours
FIRE DELAY
The Fire Delay is the time delay that occurs between the time that the control closes a stage contact to fire a stage and the burner fires for that stage.
Stage Delay
The stage delay is the minimum time delay between the firing of stages. After this delay has expired the control can fire the next stage if it is required. This setting can be adjusted manually or set to an automatic setting. When the automatic setting is used, the control determines the best stage delay based on the operation of the system.

Boiler Mass
The boiler mass setting allows the installer to adjust the control to the thermal mass of the type of heat sources used in the application. If the heating system is causing the boiler(s) to be staged on and off in rapid succession, a higher boiler mass setting will result in a decrease in the amount of cycling. Conversely, if the system is slow to respond to heat requirements, then decreasing the boiler mass setting will increase the response rate by staging the boilers at a faster rate.
Lo (1)
The Lo setting is selected if the boiler(s) that is used has a low thermal mass. This means that the boiler(s) has a very small water content and has very little metal in the heat exchanger. A boiler that has a low thermal mass comes up to temperature quite rapidly when fired. This is typical of many copper fin-tube boilers. The Lo mass setting provides a fast staging rate of on / off boiler stages.
Med (2)
The Med setting is selected if the boiler(s) that is used has a medium thermal mass. This means that the boiler(s) either has a large water content and a low metal content or a small water content and a high metal content. This is typical of many modern residential cast iron boilers or steel tube boilers. The Med mass setting provides a moderate staging rate of on / off boiler stages.
Hi (3)
The Hi setting is selected if the boiler(s) that is used has a high thermal mass. This means that the boiler(s) has both a large water content and a large metal content. A boiler that has a high thermal mass is relatively slow in coming up to temperature. This is typical of many commercial cast iron and steel tube boilers. The Hi mass setting provides a slow staging rate of on / off boiler stages.

Page 9
DIFFERENTIAL
An on / off heat source must be operated with a differential in order to prevent short cycling. With the control, either a fixed or an auto differential may be selected. The boiler differential is divided around the boiler target temperature. The stage contact closes when the supply water temperature is ½ of the differential setting below the boiler target temperature. Additional staging occurs if the first stage is unable to raise the supply water temperature up to the boiler target temperature at a reasonable rate. As the supply temperature reaches ½ of the differential above the boiler target temperature, stages are staged off.
Fixed Differential
If the user desires to have a fixed differential, this is set using the boiler differential (BOIL DIFF) setting in the ADJUST menu.
Auto Differential
If the Auto Differential is selected, the control automatically determines the best differential as the load changes. This reduces potential short cycling during light load conditions.

BOILER RETURN SENSOR
The boiler sensor should be located on the boiler return if the 374 is one of many controls that can call for boiler operation or the boiler has its own control with outdoor reset and setpoint operation. The boiler return sensor provides boiler return protection.
Boiler Enable Contact
When the Return / Supply DIP switch is set to Return, the 374 provides a boiler enable when
Boiler
Sensor
there is a requirement for heat. The 374 no longer tries to control the boiler supply water temperature directly but allows the boiler to operate at its operating aquastat setting. The boiler enable contact is closed at either 30% or 10% operation of the mixing device, which is set using the 30% Enable / 10% Enable DIP switch. The boiler enable contact remains closed until the mixing device(s) no longer requires heat.
Setpoint Enable Contact
If a DHW demand or a Setpoint demand is registered, the Setpoint Enable contact is closed to provide a setpoint demand to the boiler’s control if a setpoint input is available. When a return sensor is being used, the boiler should operate its own boiler pump.
NO BOILER SENSOR
The 374 is capable of operating without a boiler sensor if desired. In this case, there is no boiler protection provided by the 374.
To operate the 374 without a boiler sensor, the Return / Supply DIP switch is set to Return and the control must be powered up without the boiler sensor connected. This type of application is typical if the 374 is drawing heat from a heat source that already incorporates some form of boiler return protection.
Boiler Enable Contact
When the Return / Supply DIP switch is set to Return, the 374 provides a boiler enable when there is a requirement for heat. The 374 no longer tries to control the boiler supply water temperature directly but allows the boiler to operate at its operating aquastat setting. The boiler enable contact is closed at either 30% or 10% operation of the mixing device, which is set using the 30% Enable / 10% Enable DIP switch. The boiler enable contact remains closed until the mixing device(s) no longer requires heat.
Setpoint Enable Contact
If a DHW demand or a Setpoint demand is registered, the Setpoint Enable contact is closed to provide a setpoint demand to the boiler’s control if a setpoint input is available.

DHW DEMAND
A DHW Demand is required in order for the control to provide heat to the DHW system. A DHW aquastat or setpoint control is used as a switch in the DHW demand circuit. Once the control detects a DHW demand, the DHW Demand pointer turns on in the LCD and the control operates the boiler to provide a sufficient boiler supply water temperature to the DHW tank. The control operates the pumps as described below.
24 to 230 V (ac)
DHW Dem
The control registers a DHW Demand when a voltage between 24 and 230 V (ac) is applied across the DHW Dem and Com Dem terminals (29 and 31).

BOILER TARGET DURING DHW GENERATION
The boiler target temperature is at least as hot as the DHW exchange setting (DHW XCHG). The DHW demand overrides the boiler reset target temperature, except when the boiler reset target is higher than the DHW exchange setting.

The control has four different settings available for DHW MODE. The required DHW MODE setting will depend on the piping arrangement of the DHW tank. It is often desirable to limit or even stop the flow of heat to the heating system when the DHW tank calls for heat. This allows for a faster recovery of the DHW tank.

DHW MODE 1 - DHW in Parallel no Priority
When a DHW Demand is present, the DHW Pmp / Vlv contact closes. The primary pump (Prim P1) does not turn on, but may operate based on either a Boiler Demand, Mixing Demand or a Setpoint Demand. Refer to sections B and D.
It is assumed that the DHW pump will provide adequate flow through the heat exchanger and the boiler.
DHW MODE 2 - DHW in Parallel with Priority
When a DHW Demand is present, the DHW Pmp / Vlv contact closes and the primary pump (Prim P1) contact is opened.
It is assumed that the DHW pump will provide adequate flow through the heat exchanger and the boiler.
DHW MODE 3 - DHW in Primary / Secondary no Priority
When a DHW Demand is present, the DHW Pmp / Vlv contact is closed and the primary pump (Prim P1) is operated.
This mode can be used if a DHW tank is piped in direct return and a DHW valve is installed.

DHW MODE 4 - DHW in Primary / Secondary with External Priority
When a DHW Demand is present, the DHW Pmp / Vlv contact is closed and the primary pump is operated. Priority can only be obtained using external wiring on boiler zones. The mix system pumps continue to operate but the variable speed pumps(s) is shut off or the mixing valve(s) is closed. This allows DHW priority over the mix zones. During a priority override, the DHW Pmp / Vlv contact is opened until the heating system has recovered before returning to DHW operation.
This mode can be used if a DHW tank is piped in direct return and a DHW valve is installed.

DHW PRIORITY OVERRIDE
The DHW Priority Override applies to DHW MODE 2 and 4. To prevent the building from cooling off too much or the possibility of a potential freeze up during DHW priority, the control limits the amount of time for DHW priority. As the outdoor air temperature becomes colder, the length of time that the control provides DHW priority is reduced. Once the allowed time for priority has elapsed, the control overrides the DHW priority and resumes space heating.
To provide external DHW priority, the boiler temperature space heating zones must be interlocked with the DHW Pmp / Vlv contact. During DHW demands, the DHW Pmp / Vlv contact must remove any power to all boiler temperature space heating zone valves or zone pumps.

CONDITIONAL DHW PRIORITY
If the boiler supply temperature is maintained at or above the required temperature during DHW generation, this indicates that the boiler(s) has enough capacity for DHW and possibly heating as well. As long as the boiler supply temperature is maintained near its target, DHW and heating occurs simultaneously.
DHW POST PURGE
After the DHW Demand is removed, the control performs a purge on the boiler(s). The control shuts off the boiler(s) and continues to operate either the DHW pump or the DHW valve and the primary pump if applicable. This purges the residual heat from the boiler(s) into the DHW tank. The control continues this purge for a maximum of four minutes or until the boiler supply water temperature drops 20°F (11°C) below the boiler target temperature during the DHW operation. The control also stops the purge if the boiler supply temperature drops below the current boiler target temperature.
DHW MIXING PURGE
After DHW operation, the boiler(s) is extremely hot. At the same time, the heating zones may have cooled off considerably after being off for a period of time. To avoid thermally shocking the boiler(s) after DHW priority, the control shuts off the boiler(s), but continues to operate the DHW pump while restarting the heating system. This allows some of the

DHW return water to mix with the cool return water from the zones and temper the boiler return water.

DHW DURING UNOCCUPIED
If the control receives a DHW Demand during an unoccupied period, the control can either continue operation of the DHW system as it would during the occupied period or the control can ignore a DHW Demand for the duration of the unoccupied period.

Section C2: DHW with Low Temperature Boilers
If DHW is to be incorporated into a low temperature system such as a radiant heating system, a mixing device is often installed to isolate the high DHW supply temperature from the lower system temperature. If a mixing device is not installed, high temperature water could be supplied to the low temperature system while trying to satisfy the DHW demand. This may result in damage to the low temperature heating system. The control is capable of providing DHW in such a system while maximizing the chance that the temperature in the heating system does not exceed its allowed maximum setting.
To prevent high temperature water from being introduced into the heating
Primary
Pump
system, the primary pump (Prim P1) must be turned off during a call for DHW. To do this, the control must be set to DHW MODE 2 or DHW MODE 4 and Boil MIN must be set to OFF.
DHW MODE 2 OPERATION
On a call for DHW, the control provides DHW priority by shutting off the primary pump (Prim P1) for a period of time. This time is based on the outdoor air temperature as described in the DHW Priority Override section. However, if the DHW Demand is not satisfied within the allotted time, the boiler(s) shuts off and the heat of the boiler is purged into the DHW tank.
Once the boiler supply temperature is sufficiently reduced, the DHW Pmp / Vlv contact shuts off. The heating system is turned on for a period of time to prevent the building from cooling off. After a period of heating, and if the DHW Demand is still present, the control shuts off the heating system and provides heat to the DHW tank once again.
For correct operation, close attention must be paid to the mechanical layout of the system. When the control turns off the primary pump (Prim P1), flow to the heating system must stop. If flow is not stopped, the temperature in the heating system can exceed the maximum desired temperature and can result in damage to the heating system.
DHW Pump
DHW MODE 4 OPERATION
In DHW MODE 4, the space heating zones must be prevented from coming on during DHW demands using external wiring. This can be done using an external relay to remove power from zone pumps or zone valves while a DHW Demand is present. This external relay is powered with the DHW Pmp / Vlv contact.
During a DHW Demand, the control closes the primary pump (Prim P1) contact and the DHW Pmp / Vlv contact. Once the DHW Demand is removed, or during a DHW priority override, the DHW Pmp / Vlv contact is opened, and the external wiring should allow the space heating zones to operate.
There is no mixing purge available in DHW MODE 4. After DHW priority, the boiler supply water temperature may exceed the design water temperature of the space heating system and can result in damage to the heating system.
Section D: Setpoint Operation
Section D1
Setpoint
Section D1: Setpoint
SETPOINT
The control can operate to satisfy the requirements of a setpoint load in addition to a space heating load and a DHW load. A setpoint load overrides the current outdoor reset temperature and WWSD setting in order to provide heat to the setpoint load.
SETPOINT DEMAND
A Setpoint Demand is required in order for the control to provide heat to the setpoint load. The control registers a setpoint demand when a voltage between 24 and 230 V (ac) is applied across the Setp Dem and Com Dem terminals (28 and 31). Once voltage is applied, the Setpoint Demand pointer turns on in the LCD. The control operates the boiler(s) to maintain at least the setpoint setting.

SETPOINT PRIORITY OVERRIDE
The setpoint has a Priority Override while in SETP MODE 2. In order to prevent the building from cooling off too much or the possibility of a potential freeze up during setpoint priority, the control limits the amount of time for setpoint priority. As the outdoor air temperature becomes colder, the length of time the control provides setpoint priority is reduced. Once the allowed time for priority has elapsed, the control overrides the setpoint priority and operates setpoint and heating simultaneously by turning on the primary pump (Prim P1).
CONDITIONAL SETPOINT PRIORITY
If the boiler(s) supply temperature is maintained at or above the required temperature during setpoint generation, this indicates that the boiler(s) has enough capacity for setpoint and possibly heating as well. As long as the boiler target temperature is maintained, setpoint and heating occur at the same time.
Section E: Mixing Operation
Section E1
Mixing
Section E1: Mixing
GENERAL
The control is capable of providing either two reset supply temperatures or one reset supply temperature and one mix setpoint temperature using two mixing devices. Each mixing device reduces the supply water temperature from the primary boiler loop to a secondary mixed loop. Each mixed secondary loop has its own supply water target temperature, which is determined by its own Mixing Characterized Heating Curve or Mix Target setpoint temperature.
MIX 1 DEMAND
The mix 1 demand allows the operation of the mixing 1 device to provide outdoor reset to the mix 1 supply loop. A conventional thermostat system can be used for zoning from the mix 1 supply loop. A mix 1 demand is generated by applying a voltage between 24 and 230 V (ac) across the Mix1 Dem and Com Dem terminals (25 and 26). Once voltage is applied, the Mix 1 Demand pointer is displayed in the LCD. If the control is not in WWSD, it will operate the mix 1 device and the mix 1 system pump (Mix1 P2) to maintain the mixing 1 target temperature.

Mixing Indoor
The Mix Indoor setting is the room temperature used in the original heat loss calculations for the building. This setting establishes the beginning of the Mixing Characterized Heating Curve for the mixing zones.
Mixing Room
The Mix Room setting is the desired room temperature for the mixing zones and it provides a parallel shift of the Mixing Characterized Heating Curve. The room temperature desired by the occupants is often different from the designed indoor temperature. If the room temperature is not correct, adjusting the Mix Room setting increases or decreases the amount of heat available to the building.
Mixing Target Temperature
The Mixing Target temperature is determined from the Mixing Characterized Heating Curve settings. The control displays the temperature that it is currently trying to maintain as the mixing supply temperature. If the control does not presently have a requirement for heat, it displays “– – –“ in the LCD.

Mixing Minimum
The Mixing Minimum setting is the lowest temperature that the control is allowed to use as a mix target temperature. During mild conditions, if the control calculates a mix target temperature that is below the Mixing Minimum setting, the mix target temperature is adjusted to match the Mix Minimum setting. During this condition, if the mixing supply temperature is near the Mixing Minimum setting, the Min segment turns on in the LCD when either the mix target temperature or the mix supply temperature is being viewed.

MIX MODE 2 – MIXING SETPOINT OPERATION
Mixing device 2 can operate at a mixing setpoint temperature by setting Mix 2 Mode to 2. The Mix 2 Target temperature can then be set to the desired temperature. While the boiler supply temperature is close to the boiler minimum temperature, the mix 1 device has priority over the mix 2 device when set to Mix 2 Mode 2.
MIXING DEVICE SELECTION
The control can supply a lower water temperature to part of the heating system by varying the speed of an injection pump or modulating a mixing valve. This selection is made using the Floating / Variable DIP switch.
Variable Speed Injection
Standard wet rotor circulators are connected to the control on Var1 terminal (2) for mix 1 demands and Va r2 terminal (5) for mix 2 demands. The control increases or decreases the power output to the circulator when there is mix demand. The circulator speed varies to maintain the correct mixed supply water temperature at the mix supply sensor. For correct sizing and piping of the variable speed injection driven circulator, refer to essay E 021. A visual indication of the current variable speed output is displayed in the LCD in the form of a segmented bar graph. There are separate bar graphs for each mix 1 and mix 2 outputs as indicated by a 1 or a 2 next to the bar graph.
Floating Action
Floating action actuator motors are connected to the control on the Opn and Cls terminals. Mix 1 has Opn and Cls terminals (1 and 2) and Mix 2 has separate Opn and Cls terminals (4 and 5). Power for both floating action actuator motors are shared on the Pwr Mix terminal (3).
The control pulses the actuator motor open or close to maintain the correct supply water temperature at the mix supply sensor when there is a mix demand. The mixing valve that the actuator is connected to can be either a 2-way, 3-way or 4-way valve. A visual indication as to whether the control is currently opening or closing the mixing valve is displayed in the LCD with the words Open and Close while viewing the Mix Supply and Mix Target temperatures. Also, a visual indication of the current position of the valve is displayed in the LCD in the form of a segmented bar graph. There are separate bar graphs for each mix 1 and mix 2 outputs as indicated by a 1 or a 2 next to the bar graph.

If mix2 is operating in setpoint mode 2, it is the first to reduce its output. Otherwise, both outputs are reduced at the same rate. Reducing the mixing output limits the amount of cool return water to the boiler and allows the boiler water temperature to recover. This feature can only be used if the boiler sensor is on the supply or on the return.

DHW Pmp / Vlv Contact
The DHW Pmp / Vlv terminals (19 and 20) are an isolated output. There is no power available on these terminals from the control. These terminals are to be used as a switch to either make or break power to the DHW pump or the DHW valve. Since this is an isolated contact, it may switch a voltage between 24 V (ac) and 230 V (ac).
Stage 1 / Boil Enable Contact
The Stage 1 / Boil Enbl. terminals (21 and 22) are isolated outputs in the control. There is no power available on these terminals from the control. These terminals are to be used as a switch to either make or break power to a boiler or a Lo fire stage on a single boiler. Since this is an isolated contact, it may switch a voltage between 24 V (ac) and 230 V (ac).
Stage 2 / Setp Enable Contact
The Stage 2 / Setp Enbl. terminal (23 and 24) are isolated output in the control. There is no power available on these terminals from the control. These terminals are to be used as a switch to either make or break power to a boiler or a Hi fire stage on a single boiler. In the case where the boiler sensor is connected to the return or there is no boiler sensor installed, these terminals are used to provide a setpoint demand to the boiler’s control if applicable. Since this is an isolated contact, it may switch a voltage between 24 V (ac) and 230 V (ac).

TESTING THE WIRING
General
Each terminal block must be unplugged from its header on the control before power is applied for testing. To remove the terminal block, pull straight down from the control.
The following tests are to be performed using standard testing practices and procedures and should only be carried out by properly trained and experienced persons.
A good quality electrical test meter, capable of reading from at least 0 – 300 V (ac) and at least 0 – 2,000,000 Ohms, is essential to properly test the wiring and sensors.
Test the Sensors
In order to test the sensors, the actual temperature at each sensor location must be measured. A good quality digital thermometer with a surface temperature probe is recommended for ease of use and accuracy. Where a digital thermometer is not available, a spare sensor can be strapped alongside the one to be tested and the readings compared. Test the sensors according to the instructions in the Data Brochure D 070.
Test the Power Supply
Make sure exposed wires and bare terminals are not in contact with other wires or grounded surfaces. Turn on the power and measure the voltage between the Power L and Power N terminals (14 and 15) using an AC voltmeter, the reading should be between 103.5 and
126.5 V (ac).

Testing the Control
The control has a built-in test routine that is used to test the main control functions. The control continually monitors the sensors and displays an error message whenever a fault is found. See the following pages for a list of the control’s error messages and possible causes. When the Test button is pressed, the Tes t light is turned on. The individual outputs and relays are tested in the following test sequence.
TEST SEQUENCE
Each step in the test sequence lasts 10 seconds.
During the test routine, if a demand from the system is present, the test sequence may be paused by pressing the Te st button. If the Test button is not pressed again for 5 minutes while the test sequence is paused, the control exits the entire test routine. If the test sequence is paused, the Test button can be pressed again to advance to the next step. This can also be used to rapidly advance through the test sequence. To reach the desired step, repeatedly press and release the Test button until the appropriate device and segment in the display turn on.
Step 1 – The mix 1 device ramps up to 100% or full open for 10 seconds.
Step 2 – The mix 1 device ramps down to 0% or closes fully for 10 seconds.
Step 3 – The mix 1 pump turns on for 10 seconds then shuts off.
Step 4 – The mix 2 device ramps up to 100% or opens fully for 10 seconds.
Step 5 – The mix 2 device ramps down to 0% or closes fully for 10 seconds.
Step 6 – The mix 2 pump turns on for 10 seconds then shuts off.
Step 7 – The primary pump turns on and remains on and remains on.
Step 8 – Boiler 1 fires if set to automatic.
Step 9 – Boiler 2 fires if set to automatic.
Step 10 – Both Boilers are shut off. – If DHW MODE is set to 1 or 2, the primary pump is shut off and the DHW Pmp/Vlv contact is closed. – If DHW MODE is set to 3 or 4, the primary pump stays on and the DHW Pmp/Vlv contact is closed.
Step 11 – The control exits the test sequence.
MAX HEAT
The control has a function called Max Heat. In this mode, the control turns on and operates the system up to the maximum set temperatures as long as there is a demand for heat. The control continues to operate in this mode for up to 24 hours or until the Item, Menu or Test button is pressed. This mode may be used for running all circulators during system start-up in order to purge air from the piping. To enable the Max Heat feature, use the following procedure.
1) Press and hold the Te s t button for more than 3 seconds. At this point, the control flashes the MAX segment and displays the word OFF
2) Using the ▲ or ▼ buttons, select the word On. After 3 seconds, the control turns on all outputs. However, the max heat mode is still limited by the BOIL MAX setting.
3) To cancel the Max Heat mode, press the Item, Menu, or Test button.
4) Once the Max Heat mode has either ended or is cancelled, the control resumes normal operation.

Troubleshooting
When troubleshooting any heating system, it is always a good idea to establish a set routine to follow. By following a consistent routine, many hours of potential headaches can be avoided. Below is an example of a sequence that can be used when diagnosing or troubleshooting problems in a hydronic heating system.
Establish the problem. Get as much information from the customer as possible about the problem. Is there
Establish the
Problem
too much heat, not enough heat, or no heat? Is the problem only in one particular zone or area of the building or does the problem affect the entire system? Is this a consistent problem or only intermittent? How long has the problem existed for? This information is critical in correctly diagnosing the problem.
Understanding
the Sequence of
Operation
Use the Test
Routine
Sketch the
Piping in the
System
Document the
Control
Isolate the
Problem
Understand the sequence of operation of the system. If a particular zone is not receiving enough heat, which pumps or valves in the system must operate in order to deliver heat to the affected zone? If the zone is receiving too much heat, which pumps, valves or check valves must operate in order to stop the delivery of heat?
Press the Test button on the control and follow the control through the test sequence as described in the Testing section. Pause the control as necessary to ensure that the correct device is operating as it should.
Sketch the piping of the system. This is a relatively simple step that tends to be overlooked, however it can often save hours of time in troubleshooting a system. Note flow directions in the system paying close attention to the location of pumps, check valves, pressure bypass valves and mixing valves. Ensure correct flow direction on all pumps. This is also a very useful step if additional assistance is required.
Document the control for future reference. Before making any adjustments to the control, note down all of the items that the control is currently displaying. This includes items such as error messages, current temperatures and settings, and which devices should be operating as indicated by the LCD. This information is an essential step if additional assistance is required to diagnose the problem.
Isolate the problem between the control and the system. Now that the sequence of operation is known and the system is sketched, is the control operating the proper pumps and valves at the correct times? Is the control receiving the correct signals from the system as to when it should be operating? Are the proper items selected in the menus of the control for the device that is to be operated?
Test the contacts, voltages and sensors. Using a multimeter, ensure that the control is receiving adequate

voltage to the power terminals and the demand terminals as noted in the technical data. Use the multimeter to determine if the internal contacts on the control are opening and closing correctly. Follow the instructions in the Testing the Wiring section to simulate closed contacts on the terminal blocks as required. Test the sensors and their wiring as described in the sensor Data Brochures.
