9.1 INTRODUCTION The C-More Water Heater Management (WHM) feature is designed for use with multiple AERCO Water Heaters equipped with C-More Controllers. The software code required to operate the WHM resides in each of the C-Mores that are part of the system. The WHM can control up to eight (8) water heaters in parallel.

3. Ensure that the valve is positioned with the actuator enclosure position as shown in Figure 9-2. 4. AERCO recommends that another pipe nipple and union be attached to the valve inlet prior to connecting the cold water supply piping.
3-pin Molex connectors on the units are connected to the corresponding connectors on the valves. Page 110 of 190 AERCO International, Inc. • 100 Oritani Dr. • Blauvelt, NY 10913 • Ph.: 800-526-0288 PR1 7/16/12...

AERCO recommends that the WHM Master be set up first. By doing so, the Master will “push” most of the required menu entries to each WHM Slave as each unit is brought on-line. The following steps assume that the WHM Master and Slaves will be consecutively numbered, starting at 1 (WHM Master).
Page 114
26. The WHM Auto Mstr and WHM Auto Timer options will be automatically “pushed” to the WHM Slaves on the network. 27. This completes all programming for the WHM. Page 114 of 190 AERCO International, Inc. • 100 Oritani Dr. • Blauvelt, NY 10913 • Ph.: 800-526-0288 PR1 7/16/12...
