Start-up 

(continued)

   

Set domestic hot water (DHW) operation

Verify DHW mode

There are two (2) modes of operation for DHW.  In Normal 
Mode, when a DHW demand begins, the control will start 
the DHW pump, turn off the boiler pump (if running), and 
modulate to bring the outlet temperature to the DHW boiler 
set point.  The maximum firing rate may be limited in this 
mode if desired.

In Zone Mode it is assumed that the indirect DHW tank is 
piped as a zone on the primary loop.  When a DHW demand 
begins, the control will turn on the DHW pump output, and 
raise the system temperature set point to the DHW boiler set 
point (if higher).  The boiler pump will be turned on.  The 
system pump may be forced on, forced off, or not changed, 
depending on the System Pump Mode selected (reference 
the Knight Wall Mount Service Manual for details). In this 
mode, any low temperature zones (such as radiant heating) 
may need additional controls to limit the water temperature 
sent to those zones.

Set DHW boiler target temperature

When in the DHW Mode, the control will modulate to 
maintain the boiler outlet temperature or system supply 
temperature to a set point.  This set point is set at the factory 
to 180°F.  If a different set point is desired, the appropriate 
parameter in the control must be changed.  See the Knight 
Wall Mount Service Manual for a detailed explanation of this 
procedure.

Set maximum DHW fan speed

If the rated input of the indirect tank is less than the maximum 
output of the boiler, change the maximum DHW fan speed 
setting to limit the boiler output accordingly, see the Knight 
Wall Mount Service Manual for a detailed explanation of this 
procedure.

 NOTICE

The internal clock does not adjust for 
Daylight Savings Time and therefore, will 
require a manual adjustment.

7.  Turn the NAVIGATION dial to adjust the minutes.  Press 
 

the NAVIGATION dial.

8.  Turn the NAVIGATION dial to adjust the month.  Press the 
 NAVIGATION 

dial.

9.  Turn the NAVIGATION dial to adjust the date.  Press the 
 NAVIGATION 

dial.

10.  Turn the NAVIGATION dial to adjust the year.  Press the 
 

RIGHT SELECT [SAVE] key.

11.  Press the RIGHT SELECT [HOME] key.

Please note that the brackets ([]) denote 
screen status.

 NOTICE

Configuration of the cascade

Please note that the brackets ([]) denote 
screen status.

 NOTICE

When installed in a Cascade system, the individual controls must 
be programmed for cascade operation. This is accomplished by 
accessing the control parameters. 

Press the [MENU] key for at least five (5) seconds.  Input the 
Installer code as described in the Knight Wall Mount Service 
Manual. Once the control parameters have been accessed, use 
the NAVIGATION dial to select the Control Mode parameters. 
Press the NAVIGATION dial to access these parameters. 

Rotate the NAVIGATION dial to select the parameter Cascade 
Address. Press the NAVIGATION dial  to access this parameter. 
Each appliance in the Cascade system must be programmed 
with its own address. The boiler designated as the Leader will 
have an address of 0. The remaining boilers in the Cascade 
will be Members and have addresses from 1 - 7. Rotate the 
NAVIGATION dial to select the appropriate address. Press the 
RIGHT SELECT [SAVE] key.  

Press the RIGHT SELECT [HOME] key to upload the address 
into the control. Repeat this procedure for all boilers in the 
Cascade, designating the Leader control and the Member 
controls.

Set clock

The SMART SYSTEM control has a built-in clock that it 
uses for its night setback feature and for logging events.  This 
clock must be set when the boiler is installed, and anytime the 
boiler has been powered off for more than 4 hours.  Use the 
following procedure to set the clock:

1.  Press and hold the LEFT SELECT [MENU] key for at 
 

least 5 seconds.

2. The display changes to read [PASSWORD], 
 

with four (4) zeros below it.

3.  Press the RIGHT SELECT [SAVE] key.

4.  The display will then show a menu with the time and 
 

date and temperature unit.

5.  Press the NAVIGATION dial twice.

6.  Turn the NAVIGATION dial to adjust the hours.  Press 
 

the NAVIGATION dial.

The clock is automatically updated whenever a PC is connected 
and the Win_Pro-Installer program is started.
