NOTE: If sensor wires are located in an area with sources of
potential electromagnetic interference (EMI), the sensor
wires should be shielded, or the wires routed in a grounded
metal conduit. If using shielded cable, the shielding should be
connected to the common ground of the boiler.
J. Optional 0-10 Volt Building Control Signal
1. A signal from a
building management
system
may
be
connected to the boiler
to
enable
remote
control.
This
signal
should be a 0-10 volt
positive-going
DC
signal.
When
this
input is enabled using
the
installer
menu,
a
building
control
system can be used to
control the set point
temperature
of
the
boiler.
The
control
interprets the 0-10 volt
signal as follows; when
the signal is between 0
and 1.5 volts, the boiler
will be in stand¬by mode, not firing. When the signal rises
above 1.5 volts, the boiler will ignite. As the signal continues
to rise towards its maximum of 10 volts, the boiler will
increase in set point temperature. See Part 10 for details on
the setting of function 16.
2. Connect a building management system or other auxiliary
control signal to the terminals marked 16, 0-10 VOLT + and
17, 0-10 VOLT – in the electrical junction box (shown in Figure
29). Caution should be used to ensure that the 0-10 VOLT +
connection does not become connected to ground.
3. Move jumper on connection board (shown in Figure 31)
from A to B.
4. See Function 17 this manual to program the 0-10 volt
signal.
NOTE: When a 0-10 volt building management system
is installed, the return sensor temperature cannot be
monitored through the appliance display.
NOTE: Ensure that the polarity of the connections from the
external modulating boiler controller to the boiler is correct.
Reversed polarity could lead to erratic and/or no response
from the boiler controller.
K. Optional UL353 Low Water
Cut-Off Interface Kit
If an optional UL 353 Low Water Cut-
Off (LWCO) Interface Kit is used,
the control box of the kit should be
mounted to the left side of the boiler
cabinet near the low water cut-off
probe, which is located on the outlet
nipple of the boiler.
Follow the complete instructions
included
in
the
kit
for
installation.

proper
NOTE: The control system senses system water temperatures
entering and exiting the heat exchanger to provide protection
against low water conditions. Where local codes or jurisdictions
do not accept a pressure device for low water protection, the
jurisdictions may accept these control functions as a means of
providing low water protection.
L. Wiring of Cascade System Communication Bus
1. A Cascade Bus Termination Plug has been installed on the
customer connection board of this boiler. The purpose of this
plug is to stabilize communication between multiple boilers and
reduce electrical "noise". See Figures 30 and 31 for Cascade Bus
Termination Plug installation detail.
2. Use standard CAT3 or CAT5 computer network patch cables
to connect the communication bus between each of the boilers.
These cables are readily available at any office supply, computer,
electronic, department or discount home supply store in varying
lengths. If you possess the skills you can also construct custom
length cables.
3. It is recommended to use the shortest length cable that will
reach between the boilers and create a neat installation. Do
not run unprotected cables across the floor where they may
become wet or damaged. Avoid running communication cables
parallel and close to or against high voltage (120 volt or greater)
wiring. Westinghouse recommends that the maximum length of
communication bus cables not exceed 200 feet.
4. Route the communication cables through one of the
knockouts in the cabinet.
