BOILER CHARACTERIZED HEATING CURVE
The boiler(s) have a Boiler Characterized Heating Curve determined by 
the following settings: 
Boiler Design Temperature
The boiler design supply temperature is the supply water temperature 
required to heat the building when the outdoor air temperature is as 
cold as the outdoor design temperature.
Boiler Indoor Design Temperature
The indoor design temperature is the room temperature that was 
used in the original heat loss calculations for the building. This setting 
establishes the beginning of the boiler characterized heating curve.
Boil Room
The Boil Room setting is the desired room temperature for the building 
and provides a parallel shift of the boiler characterized heating curve. 
The room temperature desired by the occupants is often different from 
the design indoor temperature. If the room temperature is not correct, 
adjusting the Boil Room setting increases or decreases the amount of 
heat available to the boiler zones in the building. A Boil  Room setting is 
available for both the occupied (day) and unoccupied (night) periods.
BOILER TERMINAL UNITS
When a terminal unit is selected, the control automatically loads the boiler design temperature, boiler maximum supply temperature, 
and boiler minimum supply temperature. The factory defaults can be changed to better match the installed system. If a factory 
default has been changed, refer to section  A to reload the factory defaults.

Boiler Target Temperature
The boiler target temperature is determined from the boiler characterized heating curve settings and the outdoor air temperature. 
The control displays the temperature that it is currently trying to maintain as the boiler supply temperature. If the control does not 
presently have a requirement for heat, it does not show a boiler target temperature. Instead, “– – –” is displayed in the LCD.
Boiler Minimum
The boiler minimum is the lowest temperature that the control is 
allowed to use as a boiler target temperature. During mild conditions, 
if the control calculates a boiler target temperature that is below the 
boiler minimum setting, the boiler target temperature is adjusted 
to at least the boiler(s) minimum setting. During this condition, if 
the boiler(s) is operating, the minimum segment is turned on in the 
display when viewing either the boiler supply temperature or the 
boiler target temperature. Set the boiler minimum setting to the boiler 
manufacturer’s recommended temperature.
Boiler Maximum
The boiler maximum is the highest temperature that the control is 
allowed to use as a boiler target temperature. If the control does target 
the boiler maximum setting, and the boiler temperature is near the 
boiler maximum temperature, the maximum segment will be displayed 
in the LCD while either the boiler target temperature or the boiler supply 
temperature is being viewed. At no time does the control operate the 
boiler(s) above 248°F (120°C).
