    (slave) boilers will revert to their own PID settings. Should a lag boiler fail to come on within three minutes, or the NX6100 is faulted, sequencing will immediately call for the next lag in the priority list.
  • Page 24: Option 24.0 Sequence Slaves (Number Of Boilers) (0-3) Lv1

    Option 24.0 Sequence Slaves (number of boilers) (0-3) LV1 This option is set to 1, 2 or 3 in each NX6100 to equal the number of lag “slave” boilers in the system. Once set, option parameters 24.1, 24.2, and 24.3 will become available. If the value is set to 0 the boiler will be taken out of sequencing and operate on its own PID.
  • Page 25: Option 24.1 -24.3 Priority Number(S) Lv1

    Option 24.1 -24.3 Priority Number(s) LV1 The order in which boilers sequence on is entered as the communication address(s) of the boilers in Options 24.1, 24.2 and 24.3. The first to be turned on will have a priority number one above that of the lead boiler. For example: If the communications address of the four boilers were 1, 2, 3, and 4 (set in Option 0.2), boiler 1 master (lead), with the following entered in Options 24.1-24.3 Option parameter...
