LOW WATER TEMPORARY OVERRIDE WATER LEVEL SENSOR 

Check the water level at the sight gauge and, if necessary, add water 
according to the Water Quality and Maintenance section of the Owner’s 
Manual . If adding water does not clear the LOW WATER alarm, set this 
variable to 1 to temporarily silence a false LOW WATER level sensor 
alarm . The controller will operate normally until the next loading (until 
the firebox door is left open for more than 30 seconds) . This will allow 
operation for one loading (must override each loading) until a repair can 
be made . Do not override this alarm if the system has a leak .

NOTE: If water is added to the outdoor furnace and/or system, the system 
water should be tested and 1650XL Inhibitor Plus should be added (if 
necessary) to maintain the recommended level of protection .

feature has been enabled . When set to 1 and the Easy Refire Burn Time 
Limit has been met, the Idle Pulse will be present to maintain active coals 
in the portion of the wood load that is being preserved . When set to 0, no 
Idle Pulse will be used .

EASY REFIRE BURN TIME LIMIT: - - - - 

This optional timer-based setting will “shut the furnace down early” in 
an effort to preserve a portion of the current wood load until the next 
loading . Before adjusting this setting, the operator should have a good 
understanding of how the Burn Time Monitor works, as well as a good 
understanding of the current heat load on the furnace .
