Wiring Requirements
Note that when the Tank Temperature is provided by the BAS,
it needs to be refreshed every few seconds. Th is is required
in order to prevent unwanted fl uctuations in temperature. If
these values are not provided every few seconds (timeout is
programmable), the appliance will revert to its own internal
control. If this temperature is provided by the BAS, but any
of the other control signals are being provided, the BAS will
still need to refresh this input at least every 4 minutes.
