Ashby-MF Insert

3. The On/Off button not only turns the Stove On and Off, it also resets the board if one of the
sensors has detected a problem and the board is flashing a Diagnostic code.
4. The Draft Trim button allows for adjusting the Exhaust (Combustion) fan voltages up or
down providing for fine-tuning of the combustion air. The LED light bar indicates the level of
adjustment and the factory setting is the center LED light. This allows for 2 adjustments up and 2
adjustments down. (See point 9 on page 51)
To adjust the Combustion Fan voltages:
Hold the Auger Feed button down and press the Draft Trim High/Low button and this will
change the fan voltage approximately 2.5 volts up or down from the factory setting. Watch
the LED lights to see the setting is on (it will flash the new setting). This new setting will
stay in memory from this point on.
5. The Thermostat Slide switch allows the Insert to be run in 3 different Modes:
a.
Manual Mode
. The Control Board controls all functions of the Ashby-MF.
b.
T-Stat Mode
. The Multi-Fuel Insert is hooked to a Thermostat and when calling for heat
the Ashby-MF will advance to the Heat level set at the Control board. Once the Heat demand
has been met the Insert will drop to the #1 Heat Level setting and pilot. The Insert never
shuts off and provides constant heat.
c.
SmartStat Mode
.
Do not use this setting with the Ashby-MF.
This Thermostat mode
may only be used with Pellets in a unit with the Versa Grate System & Igniter installed
Pre-Lighting Instructions
The Control Board has 4 separate programs. Two of the programs are for the Ashby-MF
(Programs 1 & 2) and two of the programs are for the Ashby-P (Programs 3 & 4). Before
lighting the Insert for the first time, ask your dealer about how to change the program or read the
instructions on the following page. The unit is set to the default program, which is program 1.
There is no feature to check to see which program is running. You must change it to see what
program was running and then cycle back through the programs to revert to program 1.
The Cycle time is the total of the ON Time & OFF Time added together. The ON Times are
constant, so this means that the OFF Time is increased or decreased, depending on the program
chosen.
Program 1.
The Cycle Time is 11.5 seconds. This is the default program when the Ashby is first
plugged in. This program does not offer self ignition.
This program is for use with
Corn, Wheat
and Rye, Cherry Pits & Distillers Grain.
Program 2.
The Cycle Time is 13 seconds. This program does not offer self ignition.
This
program is for use with
Corn, Wheat and Rye, Cherry Pits & Distillers Grain.
Program 2 is for adjusting for variations that occur within the approved fuels for this unit. Ask
your dealer before using this Program in your unit. Program 2 is for “Tweaking” the unit for
different fuel and installation conditions.
