• The System Prove feature is provided to check system component

operation.

• A typical use of this feature is to check for flow before firing any

boiler stages. When there is a call for heat, the System Output
activates the system pump starter. When the pump establishes flow,
a flow switch closes together the 

SYSTEM PROVE 

input. Only then

can the Harmony activate boilers and modulate them as required to
hold the temperature set point.

• If the 

SYSTEM PROVE 

input is open on a call, the Harmony will

enable only the System Output.  All Stage outputs will be off when
the 

SYSTEM PROVE 

input is open.

• A factory installed jumper provides the System Prove signal. Do not

remove the jumper unless it will be replaced by a System Prove
signal.

• The System Prove signal must be a dry contact only.  No voltage can

be placed across the 

SYSTEM PROVE - A9

A10

 terminals.

• Bring the two wires from the dry contact to the terminals marked

SYSTEM PROVE - A9

,

 A10

.

IMPORTANT:  Do not remove the factory installed System Prove

jumper unless it is replaced by a System Prove signal. If the

SYSTEM PROVE

 input is not closed, the Harmony will NOT

activate stages.

WIRING THE BOILER ACTIVE INPUTS

• A closure across the 

BOILER ACTIVE

 terminals informs the Har-

mony that a boiler is running normally. If the 

BOILER ACTIVE

terminals open, the Harmony registers that the Stage has encoun-
tered a safety limit and can not be restarted without a manual reset.
The Harmony will not reactivate or modulate a Stage which is not
Active.

• The Boiler Active signal is not a safety, but use of these inputs will

significantly improve the Harmony's set point control performance in
the event of a Stage encountering a safety  limit.

• A pair of  

BOILER ACTIVE 

terminals is provided for each stage.

• The Boiler Active signal must be a dry contact closure from the

boiler controlled by that Stage's output. For example, the Boiler
Active signal wired into terminals 

STAGE A 

(Terminals

 B1

 and 

B2

)

must come from the unit whose operating limits are connected to
terminals 

OPERATING LIMIT OUTPUTS A (

Terminals

 and

.

• The 

BOILER ACTIVE

 terminals are dry contacts only. No voltage

can be placed across the them.

• Wire the Boiler Active signals to their respective
