? The display blinks and indicates 01?
! The IFD has detected an incorrect flame signal
without the burner having been ignited (extrane-
ous signal)–
! Flame signal through ceramic insulation–
IFD258:
! The UV tube in the UV sensor UVS is defective
(service life ended) and permanently indicates an
extraneous signal.
• Exchange UV tube, Order No.: 04065304 –
note the Operating instructions for UV sensor
UVS.
• Increase value of parameter 04 in order to
adapt the switch-off threshold of the flame
amplifier.
0 2
? Start-up – no gas supply – the display blinks
and indicates 02?
! The gas valve does not open –
• Check voltage supply to the gas valve.
➔After a short-circuit on the valve output, the
internal fuse in the unit tripped. The fuse cannot
be replaced. Return the unit to the manufacturer
for inspection.
! There is still air in the pipeline, for example after
installation work or if the system has not been
used for a long period–
• “Purge” the pipeline and reset the system
several times.
? Start-up – flame burning – nevertheless, the
display blinks and indicates 02?
! Flame failure on start-up.
• Read off the flame signal (parameter 01) – see
page 10 (12 Reading off the flame signal
and the parameters).
If the flame signal is lower than the switch-off
threshold (parameter 04), this may be attribut-
able to the following causes:
! Short-circuit on the flame rod as the result of
soot, dirt or moisture on the insulator–
! Flame rod not correctly positioned at the flame
edge–
! Gas/air ratio incorrect –
! Flame not contacting burner ground as the result
of excessively high gas or air pressure–
! Burner or IFD not (adequately) grounded –
! Short-circuit or discontinuity on the flame signal
cable–
IFD244:
! Phase (L1) and neutral conductor (N) reversed –
• Connect L1 to terminal 1 and N to terminal 2.
IFD258:
! The set value for the cut-off sensitivity is too
high–
! Soiled UV sensor –
• Remedy fault.
? Start-up – no ignition spark and no gas
supply – the display blinks and indicates 02?
! Short-circuit on the ignition or valve output –
• Check the wiring.
• Replace fine-wire fuse: 3.15A, slow-acting, H.

➔The fuse only protects the ignition output! After a
short-circuit on the valve output, an internal fuse
in the unit trips, which cannot be changed. Re-
turn the unit to the manufacturer for inspection.
Checking the safety function
• Close the manual valve.
• Start the automatic burner control unit several
times and check that it operates safely.
• If it does not operate correctly, return the auto-
matic burner control unit to the manufacturer.

? Operation – flame burning – burner inter-
rupted– the display blinks and indicates 04?
! Flame failure during operation.
• Read off the flame signal (parameter 01 ) – see
page 10 (12 Reading off the flame signal
and the parameters).
If the flame signal is lower than the switch-off
threshold (parameter 04), this may be attribut-
able to the following causes:
! Short-circuit on the flame rod as the result of
soot, dirt or moisture on the insulator–
! Flame rod not correctly positioned at the flame
edge–
! Gas/air ratio incorrect –
! Flame not contacting burner ground as the result
of excessively high gas or air pressure–
! Burner or IFD not (adequately) grounded –
! Short-circuit or discontinuity on the flame signal
cable–
IFD258:
! The set value for the cut-off sensitivity is too
high–
! Soiled UV sensor –
• Remedy fault.
