no or YES

 - Pump Activation every 24 hours

•  If the display shows 

YES 

then the VSP will activate both the Secondary Loop pump and the Injection pump for 5

minutes every 24 hours.  Certain local codes (generally only in Canada) require this.

• If the display shows 

no 

then the VSP will only run the pumps when the system requires it.  This setting will prevent

hot water from being pumped into the Secondary loop when there is no call for heat.

• To change the mode, hold down the center button while pushing either the 

UP

 or 

DOWN

 button to toggle between the

displays of 

YES

 and 

no.

• When the correct mode is selected, release the buttons and wait approximately 5 seconds.
• If any changes were made to the operating modes, the display will flash.  Then the VSP will display the temperature of

the sensor in the Secondary loop.

INITIAL SETTINGS FOR A RESET CONTROL (see 

rSt

 previous page)

• After setting the operating mode, the VSP will display the temperature of the Secondary loop.  This is the default

display.

• To see and/or adjust the other parameters, press then release the center button marked 

PRESS TO READ

.  The VSP will

display a code to indicate which parameter will be displayed next.  After two seconds, the value of the parameter will
be shown.

• For those parameters where the values can be set (shown on chart pg. 10), press the 

UP

 or 

DOWN

 button to change

the value while it is being displayed.  Holding down the 

UP

 or 

DOWN

 button will cause the value to change more

quickly.

• The 

S

ys

t

em

 S

tart

 (

StS

) temperature setting is the outdoor temperature above which the VSP will not give heat.  Start

with the factory default setting of  60°F.

• The 

r

e

S

e

t Ratio

 (

rSt

) determines how quickly the water temperature in the Secondary loop will increase as the outdoor

temperature decreases (see pg. 12).  Lower numbered curves result in lower water temperatures.  The factory default
curve is 7 or (1:1).  This means for every degree the outdoor temperature falls (below the 

System Start

 temperature) the

Secondary loop temperature will be increased one degree.  For baseboard heat, start with 7.  For most radiant tubing
applications, start with 3.

• The 

Off

set

 (

OFF

) value is added or subtracted to the calculated water temperature for the Secondary loop.  It effec-

tively moves the starting point of the reset curves up and down by the number of degrees selected (see pg. 12).  Start
with the factory default setting of 0.

• The 

LO

w

 r

eturn 

(

LOr

) comes factory set to 

OFF

.  This is the correct setting if you are not using the Boiler return water

sensor.  If you do use the Boiler return sensor, then the setting must be set to the boiler manufacturer's specification.

• The 

Hi

gh Supply

 (

Hi

) value must be adjusted to the maximum temperature value specified for the Secondary loop

components.

• The 

S

et

b

ack (Sb) value 

determines how many degrees the Secondary loop temperature will be decreased when the

EXT Input in the Setback mode (see pg. 13) is shorted.  Start with the factory default setting of 20°F.

INITIAL SETTINGS FOR A SET POINT CONTROL (see 

SP

 previous page)

• After setting the operating mode, the VSP will display the temperature of the Secondary loop.  This is the default value

for the VSP display.

• To see and/or adjust the other parameters, press then release the center button marked 

PRESS TO READ

.  The VSP will

display a code to indicate which parameter will be displayed next.  After two seconds, the value of the parameter will
be shown.

• For those parameters where the values can be set (shown on chart pg. 10), press the 

UP

the value while it is being displayed.  Holding down the

 button will cause the value to change more

quickly.

• The

 S

tart

 (

StS

) temperature setting is the outdoor temperature above which the VSP will not give heat.  Set to

ON

 if the system set point should be held regardless of outside temperature.

• The 

r

S

 (

• The

(

.  This is the correct setting if you are not using the Boiler return water

sensor.  If you do use the Boiler return sensor, then the setting must be set to the boiler manufacturer's specification.

• The 

S

P

oint

 (

SP

) should be set to the desired temperature for the Secondary loop.

• The 

S

ack (Sb)

 value determines how many degrees the Secondary loop temperature will be decreased when the

EXT Input in the Setback mode (see pg. 13) is shorted.  Start with the factory default setting of 20°F.
