1.0 Operating Information
1.0 OPERATING INFORMATION
The ACVMax Boiler Management System is designed to be flexible yet easy to use. ACVMax mon-
itors and controls the Prestige to operate as efficiently as possible. ACVMax monitors the boiler sup-
ply, return and flue gas temperatures and operates the igniter, gas valve and blower. ACVMax uses
this information to modulate the boiler’s firing rate to maintain the required setpoint.
ACVMax offers many advanced control options, which may be adjusted for various applications to
achieve optimum boiler efficiency and operation.
• Two central / space heating (CH) call inputs with separate outdoor reset curves.
• Two temperature central/space heating (CH) temperature control via optional mixing valve.
• Domestic Hot Water (DHW) call input with optional priority.
• System temperature sensing and control with an optional system temperature sensor.
• Cascade function allows up to six Prestige boilers to operate together in a single heating system.
• Modbus interface for integrating with building management systems.
These advanced features are adjustable in the Installer Menu after entering an access code.

2.0 CH Settings
Freeze Protection should only be disabled when the system con-
tains antifreeze to prevent the system from freezing. Serious dam-
age could occur to the Prestige as well as the entire heating system
if Freeze Protection is disabled without antifreeze in the system.
The Prestige should NEVER be installed in a location where
freezing could occur. Subjecting the Prestige to freezing condi-
tions could lead to freezing of the condensate possibly causing
serious injury or death.
2.16 Frost Protection Setpoint Default: -22ºF [-30ºC]
Frost Protection will enable the circulators configured for central heating
calls in Pump Settings if the outdoor temperature falls below the Frost

sen in CH Demand, continuous CH1 and CH2 heating calls are generated.
Simultaneous CH1 and CH2 calls will result in the Prestige operating at the
highest CH1 or CH2 setpoint. The CH1 or CH2 Thermostat terminals with
the highest setpoint will be used to adjust the setpoint. If the Thermostat
terminals with the highest setpoint are open, the CH setpoint will decrease
by the Parallel Shift Value. If the Thermostat terminals with the highest
setpoint are closed, the CH setpoint will return to the highest CH1 or CH2
setpoint. Press the LEFT or RIGHT buttons to adjust the Parallel Shift
Value then press the O button to store the setting.
2.18 CH Call Blocking Default: 2 Minute
CH Call Blocking sets the minimum time between burner firings for
central heating calls. At the completion of a burner firing, the CH Call
Blocking time will begin. The burner will not fire again until after the
CH Call Blocking time has elapsed. The CH Call Blocking time only
prevents the burner from firing, the central heating circulators will
respond to a central heating call. This blocking time has no affect on
domestic hot water calls. The CH Call Blocking feature prevents short
cycling of the burner and extends the life of the burner components.
Press the LEFT or RIGHT buttons to adjust the CH Call Blocking
time then press the O button to store the setting.

Sensor option is chosen in DHW Demand. The domestic hot water call
will end when the DHW storage temperature rises above the DHW
Setpoint. Press the LEFT or RIGHT buttons to adjust the DHW On
Differential then press the O button to store the setting.
The DHW On Differential setting greatly affects the production
of domestic hot water. A low setting could result in a rapid
response to a domestic hot water call resulting in a potential
scald hazard. It is strongly recommended that the installer uti-
lize a thermostatic mixing valve on the hot water outlet of the
Indirect Water Heater. Failure to comply could result in severe
personal injury, death, or substantial property damage.

3.8 DHW Post Pump Time Default: 2 Minute
DHW Post Pump Time sets how long the circulators configured for
domestic hot water calls in Pump Settings will continue to operate at the
completion of a domestic hot water call. The DHW Post Pump feature
allows the heat remaining in the boiler at the completion of a call to be
sent to the Indirect Water Heater, which will improve the overall effi-
ciency of the system. Press the LEFT or RIGHT buttons to adjust the
DHW Post Pump Time then press the O button to store the setting.
3.9 DHW Priority Timeout Default: Off
DHW Priority Timeout allows the installer to enter an optional time limit
that a domestic hot water call has priority over a central heating call when
DHW Priority is set to Enabled. Press the LEFT or RIGHT buttons to
adjust the DHW Priority Timeout then press the O button to store the
setting.
3.10 DHW Priority Default: Enabled
DHW Priority allows the domestic hot water priority function to be
enabled and disabled. Press the UP or DOWN buttons to select Enabled
or Disabled then press the O button to store the setting.
•Enabled- Domestic hot water calls will have priority over a central
heating call. The boiler setpoint will be set to the domestic hot
water setpoint during a domestic hot water call. The DHW circu-
lator will be enabled and the heating circulators will be disabled
during a domestic hot water call.
•Disabled - Domestic hot water calls will not have priority over a
central heating call. The boiler setpoint will be set to the domestic
hot water setpoint when only a domestic hot water call is present.

DHW circulator will be enabled during a domestic hot water call.
The heating circulators will be enabled during a central heating call.
Simultaneous domestic hot water and central heating calls will
result in the PRESTIGE operating at the highest target temper-
ature when DHW Priority is set to Disabled. The use of a mixing
device on the lower temperature zones may be required to pro-
tect the lower temperature zones from damage.
DHW Priority should only be set to Disabled when Prestige
Model is set to Solo. Setting DHW Priority to Disabled when
Prestige Model is set to Excellence will not disable DHW
Priority.
3.11 DHW Call Blocking Default: 0 Minute
DHW Call Blocking sets the minimum time between burner firings for
domestic hot water calls. At the completion of a burner firing, the DHW
Call Blocking time will begin. The burner will not fire again until after the
DHW Call Blocking time has elapsed. The DHW Call Blocking time only
prevents the burner from firing, the circulators configured for domestic hot
water calls in Pump Settings will respond to a domestic hot water call.
This blocking time has no affect on central heating calls. The DHW Call
Blocking feature prevents short cycling of the burner and extends the life
of the burner components. Press the LEFT or RIGHT buttons to adjust
the DHW Call Blocking time then press the O button to store the setting.
3.12 DHW To CH Call Blocking Default: 1 Minute
DHW To CH Call Blocking sets the minimum time between a DHW burn-
er firing and a CH burner firing. At the completion of a DHW burner fir-
ing, the DHW to CH Call Blocking time will begin. The burner will not
fire again for a central heating call until after the DHW To CH Call
Blocking time has elapsed. The DHW To CH Call Blocking time only pre-
vents the burner from firing, the circulators configured for central heating
calls in Pump Settings will respond to a central heating call. This blocking
time has no affect on domestic hot water calls. The DHW To CH Call
Blocking feature prevents the burner from firing when switching from a
domestic hot water call to a central heating call. This allows the remaining
heat in the heat exchanger to be dissipated and potentially satisfy the cen-
tral heating call. Press the LEFT or RIGHT buttons to adjust the DHW
To CH Call Blocking time then press the O button to store the setting.

3.13 Antilegionella Function Default: Enabled
The Antilegionella Function ensures that an Indirect Water Heater is heat-
ed at least once per week to prevent the growth of Legionella bacteria.
Press the UP or DOWN buttons to select Enabled or Disabled then press
the O button to store the setting.
•Enabled- When the Thermostat option is chosen in DHW Demand,
a domestic hot water call is generated for 15 minutes once per week
to heat the Indirect Water Heater. When the Sensor option is cho-
sen in DHW Demand, a domestic hot water call is generated until
the DHW storage temperature reaches 140°F [60°C] once per
week. When the Sensor option is chosen in DHW Demand, the
weekly timer is reset whenever the DHW storage temperature
reaches 140°F [60°C] to prevent unnecessary firings. This function
will be active even if DHW Operation has been set to Disabled.
•Disabled - The Prestige will only fire in DHW mode when a
domestic hot water call is received.
The Antilegionella Function should only be left enabled when
an Indirect Water Heater is installed. Enabling the
Antilegionella Function without an Indirect Water Heater will
result in the Prestige firing once per week in DHW mode. This
could cause a Manual Reset Hard Lockout resulting in sub-
stantial property damage.
The Antilegionella Function is most effective when the Sensor
option is chosen in DHW Demand. The use of an Indirect
Water Heater Sensor ensures that the domestic hot water is
heated to 140°F [60°C] at least once per week.
