Setpoint Source Messages 

 

 

    General Messages: 

 

0-10V Setpoint

 

Settings are configured to allow a 0-10VDC signal to change setpoint. 

4-20mA Setpoint

 

Settings are configured to allow a 4-20mA signal to change setpoint. 

DHW Setpoint

 

The DHW sensor is controlling the setpoint for DHW heating. 

Local Setpoint

 

Boiler is watching the Local Setpoint.

. 

OA Setpoint

 

The Outside Air sensor is controlling the setpoint.

System DHW 
Setpoint

 

A Member boiler is being controlled by a HeatNet Master – Reference 

System Setpoint

 

Boiler is watching the System Setpoint from the HeatNet Master. 

Air Switch (Blower)

 

If the ignition control closes its BLOWER relay, and the control does not see the PILOT relay close 
within (2) minutes, this message will be displayed. This alarm protects the boiler from freeze ups 
being caused by a blower bringing in cold outside air with no fire.  

BLOWER, RPM 
HIGH: (Ametek 
Blower) 

If the signal from the HeatNet control board to the Ametek blower exceeds the factory limits, or the 
blower “runs away” (excessive speed), this message will be displayed. With this event, the HeatNet 
control will lockout the boiler and the boiler will require a manual reset to restart. Operation of the 
blower above the boiler’s maximum blower rpm setting could over fire the boiler. 

Blower Signal not 
Received, Retrying

 

The Boiler attempted to start by sending the J5 FLAME SAFE ALARM signal to the Ignition Control. The 
control then waited for the Blower signal from the Ignition Control and timed out. The Blow out 
switch (air box safety relief) may have opened. 

Call For Service

 

When theH-Net control issues a start signal to the ignition control and doesn't receive a Blower Relay 
signal, the H-Net control wait s 2 minutes. A retry start ignition sequence for the duration of the local 
pump post purge time will occur. During this time ,“

Blower Signal not Received, Retrying

” will be 

displayed. After (5) attempts the H-Net control will lock out. 

Combustion Air 
Damper Fault

 

Caused when the damper is detected closed, but should be open . Input on J12B.7 & J12B.8. 

DHW Heating

 

The boiler is performing DHW Heating. 

Failsafe: HeatNet 
Communications 
Lost

 

The control has entered the Failsafe mode due to a loss of HeatNet communications from the Master.
