8.3.8 WHM Auto Mstr
Password Level 2 (6817) or greater must be entered in order to access the
WHM Auto Mstr
menu option. This item is used to enable (yes) or disable (no) an Automatic Master switch-over
function. When enabled (yes), the WHM will automatically select a new Master if the current
Master fails or loses power. This option is used with the WHM Auto Timer option described in
the following section. The default for this option is No (disabled).
8.3.9 Run Hours and Run Cycles
Run hours and run cycles are monitored to select the lead unit and lag unit (next on unit) in
WHM. In the event a C-More or PMC board is exchanged in the field, this feature will allow the
user to increase but not decrease the run hours or run cycles. Once a user hits enter, the
changes made will be permanent and this feature will not allow changing to the previous value.
Only AERCO personnel are permitted to change this menu item. To increase the Run
Hours/Cycles, go the “Run Cycles” or “Run Hours” items in the Diagnostic menu.
8.3.10 High Temperature Governor
The High Temperature Governor is a feature that aggressively prevents the Outlet Temperature
from exceeding the “High Temp Limit”. The High Temperature Governor is independent of the
system PID and Feed-forward control methodology and independently modulates the Valve
Position (Fire Rate) if the Outlet Temperature dangerously approaches the “High Temp Limit”
setting.
This feature has 5 separate temperature bands for more precise control.
This feature is enabled or disabled by the
TEMP GOV ENABLE
item in the Tuning Menu. See
Table A-4 in Appendix A for a description of this item and the 5 governor items.
