Part 4 – Description of Operation

The clip-in parameter settings can be adjusted on the boiler display or the system interface. Parameter 42.0.0
must be set for the appropriate operation when the clip-in is supplied with power for the first time.
NOTE: When the Clip-In Board is wired and installed it is only possible for a CH demand to be made through the Clip-In. The CH demand through the Clip-In takes priority over all other kinds of requests.

Voltage Power (Parameter 42.0.0 = 1)

The input voltage level determines the proportional power load of the system according to the 0-10 VDC input.
The shape of the proportional relation depends on the following parameters:

Parameter Description Example Value
42.1.0 Analog Control Voltage to Start Heat Demand 1
42.1.1 Analog Control Voltage to Stop Heat Demand 0.5
42.1.2 Analog Control Voltage for Maximum Heat Demand 9
42.1.3 Analog Control Voltage for Minimum Heat Demand 2

The following graph represents the relation to the example values:

htproducts 0 10V 4 20mA Clip In Board -Voltage Power
Graph

  • Inlet voltage > 1 VDC – there is a central heating demand – the burner powers on
  • 1 VDC < Inlet voltage < 2 VDC – boiler works at minimum power
  • 2 VDC < Inlet voltage < 9 VDC – boiler works at power proportional to the inlet VDC
  • Inlet voltage > 9 VDC – boiler works at maximum power (100% parameter 2.3.1)
  • Inlet voltage < 0.5 VDC – the central heating demand has been met and the burner powers off

2.2 Voltage Temperature (Parameter 42.0.0 = 2)
The input voltage level determines the central heating setpoint of the system according to the 0-10 VDC input.
The shape of the proportional relation depends on the following parameters:

42.1.0 Analog Control Voltage to Start Heat Demand 1
42.1.1 Analog Control Voltage to Stop Heat Demand 0.5
42.1.2 Analog Control Voltage for Maximum Heat Demand 7.5

  • 3.5 VDC < Inlet voltage < 8 VDC – boiler works at CH setpoint proportional to the inlet VDC
  • Inlet voltage > 8 VDC – boiler works at CH setpoint 180°F (par. 42.0.2)
  • Inlet voltage < 0.5 VDC – the central heating demand has been met and the burner powers off

2.3 Current Power (Parameter 42.0.0 = 3)
The input voltage level determines the central heating setpoint of the system according to a proportional relation. The shape of the proportional relation depends on the following parameters:

Graph

  • Inlet current > 5 mA – there is a central heating demand – the burner powers on
  • 5 mA < Inlet current < 6 mA – boiler works at minimum power
  • 6 mA < Inlet current < 18 mA – boiler works at power proportional to the inlet current
  • Inlet current > 18 mA – boiler works at maximum power (100% – par. 2.3.1)
  • Inlet current < 4.5 mA – the central heating demand has been met and the burner powers off

2.4 Current Temperature (Parameter 42.0.0 = 4)
The input current level determines the central heating setpoint of the system according to a proportional relation. The shape of the proportional relation depends on the following parameters:

Parameter Description Example Value
42.1.0 Analog Control Current to Start Heat Demand 5
42.1.1 Analog Control Current to Stop Heat Demand 4.5

42.0.2 Maximum Temperature 180

The following graph represents the relation to the example values:

htproducts 0 10V 4 20mA Clip In Board -- Current Temperature
Graph

  • Inlet current > 5 mA – there is a central heating demand – the burner powers on
  • 5 mA < Inlet current < 7 mA – boiler works at CH setpoint 80°F (par. 42.0.1)
  • 7 mA < Inlet current < 16 mA – boiler works at CH setpoint proportional to the inlet current
  • Inlet current > 16 mA – boiler works at CH setpoint 180°F (par. 42.0.2)
  • Inlet current < 4.5 mA – the central heating demand has been met and the burner powers off
