3.3.4 AUTOMATIC / MANUAL (Auto)
When set to automatic mode the controller is
receiving and processing inputs from
temperature sensor(s) located externally or on
the unit. The controller uses these inputs to
automatically decrease or increase the firing rate
to match the load.
In manual mode the controller no longer
automatically controls the firing rate of the unit. It
is up to the operator to control the outlet
temperature and firing rate. Manual mode is
commonly used for service and troubleshooting
the unit. All safety limits remain functional
whether the controller is in automatic or manual
mode.
To place the controller in automatic mode press
the INDEX button until (Auto) is displayed in the
lower LED.
Now press the
arrow keys until ON is
displayed in the upper LED (see fig 3.6). Press
the enter button to accept the change. The MAN
LED should not be lit.
