NOTICE
The following section applies to PRESTIGE Boilers using the Honeywell Type 3 McBa control. This control is identified as Honeywell McBa 14201. for PRESTIGE Boilers with Honeywell Type 5 McBa control (identified as Honeywell McBa 54201).
NOTICE
The factory default setting for the Prestige control Module to operate a IdWH is through an aquastat control. The Prestige control Module must be programmed as described in the following instruction to correctly operate the IdWH through the nTc sensor.
To adjust the factory parameter setting of the Prestige MCBA Control, the installer must enter into the parameter menu of the control.
Do not attempt to revise any other control parameter setting except those listed in this supplement. Perform only those parameter revisions described in this supplement. failure to comply could result in erratic or unreliable operation of the Prestige resulting in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
NOTICE
For additional information on revising the Prestige McBa control Module operational parameter settings, reference the Prestige control Supplement. Entering McBa access code
To enter the parameter listing of the MCBA control, the installer must enter the access code as follows:
After the access code is entered press the MODE button until the display shows PARA. At this point the installer can access the parameters required for application.
Once in the parameter mode, press the STEP repeatedly to reach the appropriate parameter setting. The display should show the following sequence, as the STEP button is press repeatedly:
Press STEP once- 1140
Press STEP x2 - 2_01
Press STEP x3 - 3_01
Press STEP x4 - 4186
Press STEP x5 - P_05
Press STEP x6 - P_06
Etc......
After Parameter 4 the display will continue to show P followed by a two-digit number that increases with each press of the STEP button.
NOTICE
The actual parameter values displayed on the unit may vary depending on the application. The parameter sequence will always occur in the order shown.
Once a particular parameter is reached, release the STEP button. Wait a second and the display will show the current setting for that parameter in the right two display digits.
To change a Parameter Setting
Use the + or - button to change the value of the display.
Press the STORE button once to save the change.
If a parameter setting is changed from the factory default and the SToRE button is not pressed to save the setting, the McBa module will automatically store the setting after 15 minutes. Ensure all parameters settings are either factory default or revised based on the application. Review all parameters settings when completed and prior to commission of the boiler. failure to comply could result in erratic or unreliable operation of the Prestige boiler.
NOTICE
once a parameter setting value has been revised and stored, if the STEP button is pressed for the next parameter setting the value setting of that parameter will appear. The display will not show P_XX of the next sequential parameter. The sequence of parameters may be scrolled through, as the display will roll over from parameter 42 to parameter 1.
BEST PRACTICES
If sequential parameters are being revised and since the display will not show P_XX of the sequential parameter, it is recommend to press and hold the STEP button to scroll through the entire list of parameters before making any additional changes to avoid any potential confusion.
NOTICE
By pressing STEP you will sequence through the parameter settings as follows: 1140, 2_01, 3_01 , 4186, P_05, P_06, P_07..... P_35 . The display readout will continue showing "P" followed by a 2 digit number that increases after each press of the STEP button after the fourth parameter setting.
NOTICE
The parameter setting will continue for 42 different parameter setting. By continuing to press the STEP button, the display readout will rollover to the first parameter setting.
Do not attempt to revise any other control parameter setting except those listed in this supplement. Perform only those parameter revisions described in this supplement. failure to comply could result in erratic or unreliable operation of the Prestige resulting in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
Parameter 35 has several other possible settings available. The factory setting of the IdWH is aquastat control or _13. The required revised setting of the IdWH nTc control or _12. any other setting of parameter 35 could result in erratic or unreliable operation of the Prestige resulting in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
The parameter setting for the domestic storage temperature set point is Parameter 1 and is accessible without having to enter the access code.
To revise the parameter setting within the Prestige Control Module for the set point of the Domestic Storage temperature, the installer can access the parameter setting by entering the Parameter Mode PARA during normal operation, the access code is not required.
To achieve a boiler operating temperature during a domestic request for heat the MCBA Control uses Parameter 1 and a second parameter, Parameter 33 DHW Setpoint Value Addition. Parameter 1 plus Parameter 33 will establish the boiler operating temperature.
If Parameter 1 is set below 134ºF it is recommended that Parameter 33 be reset to a higher setting. The request for domestic heat is based on the temperature reading of the DHW sensor and its relationship to Parameter 1. The boiler temperature setpoint is based on Parameter 1 plus Parameter 33 with a maximum operating temperature of 194ºF.
To revise the parameter setting within the Prestige Control Module for the DHW Setpoint Value Addition, the installer must enter the access code for the control module as previously described in the Program Access of the MCBA section.
The MCBA Control Module has 2 differential settings for the burner operation when using the IDWH Sensor kit. The first differential setting the installer has the option of adjusting is Parameter 26 "DHW ON Differential". This parameter sets the DHW storage temperature low limit. The burner operation will respond when the DHW storage temperature drops below Parameter 1 minus Parameter 26 setting.
A minimum "DHW ON Differential" parameter setting will create a quicker burner operation response to any domestic water draws from the domestic storage tank. In contrast, a maximum "DHW ON Differential" setting will result in a delayed response to domestic draws.
The "dHW on differential" setting of Parameter 26 greatly affects the production of domestic hot water. a minimum setting of Parameter 26 could result in a rapid response to a dHW request for heat resulting in a potential scald hazard. It is strongly recommended that the installer utilize a anti-scald thermostatic mixing valve on the hot water outlet of the dHW storage tank. failure to comply could result in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
To revise the parameter setting within the Prestige Control Module for "DHW ON Differential" control, the installer must enter the access code for the control module as previously described in the Program Access of the MCBA section.
The second differential setting is Parameter 27 "DHW OFF Differential". This parameter sets the DHW storage temperature high limit. The burner operation will cease when the DHW storage temperature rises above Parameter 1 plus Parameter 27.
A maximum "DHW OFF Differential" parameter setting will result in an extended burner firing cycle when responding to any domestic water draws from the storage tank. This extended burner firing cycle could result in a final storage temperature of the domestic hot water that is higher than the desired storage temperature setting.
The "dHW off differential" setting of Parameter 27 greatly affects the production of domestic hot water. a maximum setting of Parameter 27 could result in an excessive domestic storage temperature resulting in a potential scald hazard. It is strongly recommended that the installer utilize a anti-scald thermostatic mixing valve on the hot water outlet of the dHW storage tank. failure to comply could result in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
To revise the parameter setting within the Prestige Control Module for "DHW OFF Differential" control, the installer must enter the access code for the control module as previously described in the Program Access of the MCBA section.
Frost Protection
With the addition of the IDWH sensor, the Prestige Control module will now provide a Frost Protection feature to the SMART IDWH tank. This feature becomes active when Parameter 35 is set to 12 and cannot be overridden.
The Frost Protection feature is designed to protect the SMART IDWH from a potential freeze up. The protection is activated once the IDWH sensor records a domestic temperature of 37ºF. At that time the Prestige boiler will begin the burner function at low input and the DHW circulator will begin circulating. The burner will continue operating at minimum input with the DHW circulator energized until the sensor senses a domestic water temperature of 50ºF. At that point the boiler will shut down the burner function and the DHW circulator. This feature is always active even if the DHW operation is in the OFF mode.
Misc. functions
There are several other Parameter settings available for DHW applications, i.e. post pump features, blocking time for burner operation. These features are explained more in detail in the Prestige Control Supplement.
TroubleShooting
Error codes
If Parameter 35 setting is 12 (IDWH Sensor) the following "soft" lockouts could occur:
b_38 alternating with a status code of 9
The IDWH Sensor is not properly connected to the Prestige low voltage terminal strip. Check for proper connections and proper terminals
b_33 alternating with a status code of 9
The IDWH Sensor is short-circuited. Check if the DHW is being used and is properly connected to the Prestige low voltage terminations. Ensure Parameter 35 is correctly set for 12 and is stored properly.
Once the condition is corrected the errors will automatically reset and the Prestige will return to normal operation.

The MCBA Control Module has 2 differential settings for the burner operation when using the IDWH Sensor kit. The first differential setting the installer has the option of adjusting is Parameter 38 "DHW ON Differential". This parameter sets the DHW storage temperature low limit. The burner operation will respond when the DHW storage temperature drops below Parameter 1 minus Parameter 38 setting.
A minimum "DHW ON Differential" parameter setting will create a quicker burner operation response to any domestic water draws from the domestic storage tank. In contrast, a maximum "DHW ON Differential" setting will result in a delayed response to domestic draws.
The "dHW on differential" setting of Parameter 38 greatly affects the production of domestic hot water. a minimum setting of Parameter 38 could result in a rapid response to a dHW request for heat resulting in a potential scald hazard. It is strongly recommended that the installer utilize a anti-scald thermostatic mixing valve on the hot water outlet of the dHW storage tank. failure to comply could result in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
To revise the parameter setting within the Prestige Control Module for "DHW ON Differential" control, the installer must enter the access code for the control module as previously described in the Program Access of the MCBA section.
The second differential setting is Parameter 39 "DHW OFF Differential". This parameter sets the DHW storage temperature high limit. The burner operation will cease when the DHW storage temperature rises above Parameter 1 plus Parameter 39.
A maximum "DHW OFF Differential" parameter setting will result in an extended burner firing cycle when responding to any domestic water draws from the storage tank. This extended burner firing cycle could result in a final storage temperature of the domestic hot water that is higher than the desired storage temperature setting.
The "dHW off differential" setting of Parameter 39 greatly affects the production of domestic hot water. a maximum setting of Parameter 39 could result in an excessive domestic storage temperature resulting in a potential scald hazard. It is strongly recommended that the installer utilize a anti-scald thermostatic mixing valve on the hot water outlet of the dHW storage tank. failure to comply could result in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
To revise the parameter setting within the Prestige Control Module for "DHW OFF Differential" control, the installer must enter the access code for the control module as previously described in the Program Access of the MCBA section.
The boiler provides a domestic hot water priority feature, which will block a heating call when a domestic hot water call is present. A DHW priority timeout setting of 00 (Factory Setting) will not limit the length of a domestic call. A domestic call will always have priority over a heating call.
A DHW priority timeout setting above 00 will limit the length of a domestic call when both domestic and heating calls are present. Once the DHW priority timeout setting has been reached, priority will shift to the heating call. If both calls continue, the priority will switch back to the domestic call after reaching the DHW priority timeout setting.
NOTICE
a short dHW priority setting could lead to excessive switching between domestic and heating calls. This excessive switching could adversely affect the production of heat and domestic hot water.
Parameter 43 adjustment
To revise the parameter setting within the Prestige Control Module for "DHW Priority Timeout" control, the installer must enter the access code for the control module as previously described in the Program Access of the MCBA section.
