• The Season setting controls whether the MPC Platinum will give heat.
• When set to Summer, the MPC Platinum does not energize the Boiler and the Motorized
Valve outputs.
• When set to Winter, the MPC Platinum operates the building heat whenever the outdoor
temperature falls below the Cutoff temperature. See "Day and Night Outdoor Cutoff" on
page 24.
• During the heating season, the control must be set to Winter mode.
• When the heating season is over, it is a good practice to switch the control to the Summer.

DAY AND NIGHT HEAT ADJUSTMENT

Adjustable from A through P
SELECT Settings/<System Settings>/Day Heat Adjust or Night Heat Adjust
• Heat Adjustments control the duration of Cycle-On based on the outdoor temperature.
• An "A" setting gives the least duration of Cycle-On at any given outside temperature. A "P"
setting gives the longest Cycle-On.
• The MPC Platinum has two heat levels, Day and Night. The Day heat level is for when
the building is occupied and people are active. The Night heat level holds a lower ambient
temperature, and is for when the building is unoccupied or people are sleeping. The Day
and Night Heat Adjustment are individually set.
• The length of the Cycle-ON is based on the Outdoor Cutoff temperature. Therefore, if
you set both the Day and Night Heat Adjustments to the same value, you will get less heat
at Night. For example, with both Heat Adjustments set to F and the factory set Cutoffs of
55°F for Day and 40°F for Night, when the outdoor temperature is 25°F the On part of the
cycle will last for 15 minutes in Day, and only 7 minutes at Night.
• If the building is too cold, adjust the appropriate setting up a letter (Day Heat Adjust if it
is too cold in the Day time and Night Heat Adjust if it is too cold in the Night time). For
example; from F to G. Then wait at least 24 hours before evaluating the new adjustment.
Otherwise, adjust it up another letter and wait an additional day for the results.
• Similarly, if the building is too warm, reduce the Heat Adjustment one letter and wait for 24
hours before making any additional adjustments.
