FAULT DIAGNOSIS
In the unlikely event of a fault condition, the microprocessor
will identify the fault area and display a suitable message on
the display.
Further to these accessible features there are other features
present in the system which the installer/service engineer
should be aware of.
HOURS RUN LOG
This feature enables the engineer to determine the workload
of the boiler.
3 FEATURES OF THE CONTROL SYSTEM - continued
PUMP OVERRUN
If the flow temperature is above 75 0C at the time of boiler
shutdown, the controls will maintain pump operation until
the residual heat within the appliance has been dispersed
and the flow temp is below 75 0C.
ANTI-CYCLE DEVICE
On any heating system, if the heating load is very low,
there is a tendency for the boiler to cycle on and off rapidly.
This is inefficient and can lead to shortened boiler life. The
high/low operating system of the CXDi/H minimises the
risk of this but, in addition, the controls prevent the boiler
from short cycling by preventing subsequent ignition within
a period of 2 minutes. When active, the display will show
"ANTI-CYCLE (Flow temp)".
4 TO LIGHT THE BOILER CONTROLS
5 TO SHUT DOWN THE BOILER (the groove in the square head must be at right angles
to the line of the pipe) and refit the casing panel.
Note.
If severe weather (frost) conditions are anticipated during the
period of shutdown the system must be completely drained.
TO RELIGHT THE BOILER
AFTER SHORT PERIODS (2-3 DAYS)
Switch on the electricity supply to the boiler and press the
On/Standby [1/0] button to turn the boiler ON. If necessary
adjust the temperature set point etc. as required.
AFTER LONG PERIODS
Remove the casing front panel and turn the gas cock ON.
Refit the casing front panel and follow the lighting
instructions above.
In this case, the ignition sequence should be reset by pressing
the [COPY] button.
4. If required, adjust the programme timer temperature set
point or weather compensation (if fitted) as described in
"Using the boiler features and controls".
WARNING.
STANDBY does NOT electrically isolate the boiler.
1. Turn on the electricity supply. The display will initially show a
start-up code followed by:
2. To switch the boiler on press the On/Standby [1/0] button.
