1.1 CONTROLLER PROGRAMMING AND SERVICE CODES
2012 NRCan and DOE Compliance and Operation
Operation of this control may delay the burner operation while the residual heat is circulated
out of the boiler.
Text Description
The integrated boiler control module provides ignition
sequence, flame monitoring and safety shutoff for
intermittent pilot spark ignition. It also provides limit rated
water temperature control for with two separate sensors in
one casing (3-wire).
The control is located on the front panel inside the boiler.
The control display, along with Up ▲, Down ▼, and “I” keys
may be used to view boiler operating status and program
parameters (Figure 1).

In the RUN mode, status items and parameters are viewable.
To read settings, press and release the “I” key to find the parameter of interest. Each setting will
alternately flash between the relevant display code listed in the Table 1 and its corresponding value. For
example, press and release “I” key until “HL_” setpoint is displayed, it will then flash a three-digit number,
i.e., 220, followed by ˚F (or ˚C). This indicates that the boiler water temperature of 220 ˚F is set. Other
operating parameters display the settings in a similar fashion.

1.1.2 INSTALLER MODE
To enter the adjustment mode:
1. Press with Up ▲, Down ▼, and “I” keys (see Figure 1) simultaneously for three seconds.
2. Press and release the “I” key until the parameter (listed in the Table 2) requiring adjustment is
displayed.
3. Press with Up ▲or Down ▼key until the parameter has reached the desired value.
4. After 60 seconds without any key inputs, the control will automatically return to the RUN Mode.

1.1.3 OPERATING CHECKOUT
After adjusting parameters, put the boiler into operation and observe operation through at least one
complete cycle to make sure that the controller operates properly. See controller troubleshooting section
to assist in determining boiler operation.
The sensor should fit snugly and should touch the bottom of the well for best temperature response. The
sensor is held inside the well using the well clip.
1.1.4 THERMAL PURGE
The intent of thermal purge is to ensure usable residual heat in the boiler is circulated until it is sufficiently
depleted from the system before the burner is allowed to fire. To that end, on a call for heat, the burner
remains off while the circulator runs until the boiler temperature drops to the thermal purge temperature
limit or the time delay is exceeded. Both of these parameters are adjustable. When the boiler temperature
falls below the thermal purge temperature limit or the time delay expires, the burner is allowed to fire.
In addition to the thermal purge temperature and thermal purge time delay parameters, two other
conditions release the integrated boiler controller from thermal purge and allow the burner to run in order
to maintain comfort in the space:
•The boiler temperature has dropped 10 °F from the boiler water temperature measured at the
beginning of the call for heat.
•Boiler temperature is cooling at a rate greater than 5 °F/minute while the circulator is running.
1.1.5 OPERATING STATE CODES AND TROUBLESHOOTING
When there is a problem during a call for heat or boiler operation, the controller provides specific
information to help resolve the issue quickly. If the controller is displaying “StA” by a number, use the
state code definitions in Table 3 to determine the problem and possible causes.
1.1.6 CONTROLLER MOUNTING
The controller has four tabs which align with four slots in the control panel. To remove the controller,
press and hold in the bottom two tabs while simultaneously rotating the controller about 45 degrees to
unhook the top two tabs.

State Specific Description
Operation Sequence
Idle/Standby The boiler is in standby - no call for heat
StA ↔1 Run circulator Heat request present but boiler water temperature sufficiently high to
run circulator pump only (no ignition sequence)
Thermostat Calls For Heat
Self Test Hardware self check, check of connected periphery, it is performed
at start up, in the beginning of the heat cycle and in the “Wait For
recovery” state

Wait for end switch
to open
The control is waiting for the end switch of the vent damper to open
at the beginning of a heat cycle. If the end switch doesn’t open in 60
seconds, the control goes to error code Err 2
StA ↔ 3
Wait for end switch
to close
The control is waiting for the end switch of venting damper to close at
the beginning of a cycle. If the end switch doesn’t close within 60
seconds, the control goes to error code Err 29

If the control loses flame signal during state code 7 or 8, or flame is
not detected during stat code 6 to 8, it will recycle through the 30

of the heat cycle. The control is not in lockout
