Notes:

1 — HD Only

 means to set the parameter for a member boiler only if it is wired for 

Heat Demand override.

2 — DHW Only

 means to set the parameter for a member boiler only if it is wired 

for DHW Demand override.

3 — HDOA Only

 means to set these parameters only if the member boiler will be 

operated with outdoor reset when put in override mode with closure across its Heat 
Demand terminals (requires outdoor sensor connected to boiler).

Set control parameters on keypads

  Before turning boilers on to set parameters, disconnect all call for heat 

wiring at the electrical connection boards, including the wiring to 
the boilers’ Remote Enable terminals. Th is will prevent the boiler for 
att empting to cycle during the setup process.

See “Control menus and adjustments,” beginning on page 22 for a complete list of 
control parameters and explanations.

Carefully read the parameter explanations in Table 8, page 25 through page 29.

When adjusting the limit band, operating limit (OP LIMIT), local setpoint (LOC 
SETPOINT) and DHW setpoint, make sure the operating temperature bands do 
not overlap or cause potential for nuisance cycling.

System clock — Set the system clock on all boilers to ensure the time stamps will 
be accurate in the data logs.

Turn on the power to each boiler and set the on/off  switch to ON as you set its 
parameters.

Use the boiler’s keypad to enter the parameters as described on page 22.

Aft er sett ing a boiler’s parameters, turn the power off  to the boiler until you are 
ready to start the boiler up following the Boiler manual instructions.

Start up boilers per 200i Boiler manual

Turn off  power to all boilers.

Follow all instructions in the 200i Boiler manual to start up each boiler and verify 
operation.

Start the system

Turn off  power to all boilers.

Connect all call for heat wiring to the boilers.

Turn on power to all boilers and turn the on/off  switches to ON.

Th e boilers should now operate normally, as described in the Boiler manual.

Th e remote 4-20mA controller will sequence and modulate boilers as necessary to 
control the water temperature.

Close the external manual gas valve on every boiler

 before 

proceeding. DO NOT open any gas valve, or att empt to fi re any 
boiler, until the boilers have been set up and verifi ed following 
the instructions in the 200i Boiler manual.

 

Failure to comply could cause a boiler failure, leading to possible 
severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
