Explanation
Two pump modes are available:
Pump Mode = 0 ‘CH or CH&DHW’
1.
In this mode either the CH or DHW pump terminal is • energized depending on the type of demand (CH or DHW).
CH and DHW pumps are never energized at the same time.
In the case of a simultaneous call for both CH and DHW, • the energized pump depends on whether the boiler is currently supplying the CH or DHW demand. Refer to DHW Priority settings below.
This is typical of a hydronic system design with separate CH • and DHW Pumps.
Pump Mode = 4 ‘System Pump’
2.
In this mode only one external system pump is installed in • the hydronic system. This pump will energize independent of the type of demand (CH or DHW).
Boiler Confi guration
Connect this pump to the CH/System Pump electrical • terminal block. See page 56 for diagram.
The DHW pump terminal does not function.
This is typical of a hydronic system design which utilizes • zone valves for all CH zones and an DHW indirect tank.
Note:
Pump Mode selection depends on electrical and • hydronic system design. Please refer to sections 5 and 8 for recommended hydronic piping and electrical confi gurations.
Internal heat exchanger pump is energized anytime • demand exists regardless of Pump Mode setting or type of demand (CH or DHW).
'Service Reminder’ feature allows the installer to enable or disable a service reminder notifi cation on the User Interface at a predefi ned interval .
Service reminder does not affect operation of boiler in any way. It is only a reminder to End User that routine preventative maintenance is required by qualifi ed service technician.

‘User Menu’
Note:
• Once CH demand is satisfi ed (i.e. CH thermostat opens or boiler determines its minimum fi ring rate exceeds system heating load):
Burner shuts off, boiler enters post purge.• CH pump continues to run for 30 seconds.• Control will wait until Anti-cycle time of 180 seconds
elapses before boiler fi res again. Prevents short- cycling.
• The internal heat exchanger pump is energized anytime demand exists regardless of Pump Mode setting or type of demand (CH or DHW).

Explanation
Maximum time boiler operates in DHW mode limited by DHW Maximum Priority Time Setting.
Priority timer starts when both CH and DHW demand is present. Boiler will switch from DHW back to CH operation after Maximum Priority Time has elapsed.
CH demand then has priority until Maximum Priority Time has elapsed.
Process repeats until either CH or DHW demand satisfi ed.
System test can be activated via installer menu for testing system at fi xed power rates.
Boiler can be started without CH or DHW demand being present. System Test has priority over any system demand while test mode activated.
System test mode automatically ends after 30 minutes boiler resumes normal operation.
The following modes are available:
System Test
Disabled• Low power - Burner starts. After ignition period has
nished the burner stays at low power Ignition power - Burner starts. Stays at ignition power• High power - Burner starts. After ignition period has
nished burner stays at high power.
Note:
Before running system test modes, check if hydronic • system capable of dissipating heat.
Both heat exchanger and CH pumps are activated during • system test only.
During System Test Mode, boiler will run at fi xed power rates until supply water temperature is 93°C/195°F
All other safety functions remain active while in System • Test Mode.
