Temperature settings — You must ensure that the
U-Control is set for the proper water temperatures for
the system. Excessive water temperature can cause sig-
nicant property damage in some applications.
Multi-temperature systems — If the heating system
includes circuits that require lower temperature water
(radiant slab circuits, for example) as well as higher
temperature circuits (DHW, nned tube baseboard, etc.),
it is recommended to protect low-temperature circuits
with limit controls that are wired to a U-Control external
limit circuit. Failure to provide regulation can result in
substantial property damage.

e U-Control is fully programmable to meet system requirements, allow-
ing supply water regulation for up to three dierent systems.
U-Control features include:
Blower speed modulation to control the Ultra boiler’s ring rate.
Advanced PID response to anticipate system needs based on response
to heat input.
Graphic and robust text display for ease of operation monitoring and
troubleshooting.
Preset operating parameters for typical heating systems (nned tube
baseboard, radiant oor, DHW, and others), including target tempera-
tures, reset curves and circulator assignments.
Control of up to three circulators (boiler circulator plus two others),
assignable for each of the three possible inputs.
Programmable priority assignments for the heat inputs.
Integral outdoor reset option, with reset curves matched to the system
type selected.
Multiple boiler/heat source sequencing or modulation.
Built-in 0–10 VDC signal generator to allow parallel modulation of
multiple boilers; also capable of accepting 0–10 VDC input.
Dual sensors for boiler outlet temperature and ue temperature, pro-
viding redundant protection.
Integral low water protection (by monitoring boiler heat exchanger
temperature).
Boiler is shipped with an outdoor sensor and strap-on system supply
and return sensors.

1. Figure35 is a summary of the operating sequence for the U-Control.
2. e symbols shown appear in the display as the U-Control cycles the
boiler.
3. e wrench symbol appears when a scheduled maintenance date ar-
rives. is informs the homeowner to call the contractor for service.
4. e exclamation mark symbol appears when a problem has been
detected.
Display Control action (also see Figure36,page33)
POWER
UP
y Check the boiler model listed on the power-up
screen. If it is not correct, turn o the boiler. See
Figure115,page102 to change setting.
y When power is turned on, the screen lists sen-
sors that are detected. If any sensor is not listed,
m
ake sure it is connected correctly. Turn o
power and restart.
Standby
y Standby — no calls for heat
y Toggles through no dots, 1 dot, 2 dots, then
3dots while in standby (wrench symbol will
show instead if maintenance is needed)
Blower on
y Call for heat detected
y Display on with BLUE light (space heating) or
PURPLE light (DHW)
y Start min/max on timers if more than one system
is calling — highest priority starts rst
y Start circulators for this priority setup
y Calculate target temp — If sensor temp is below
target temp, begin ring sequence
y Blower to ignition speed for prepurge
y Multiple boilers/heat sources only Start
additional-heat timer — type 1 boiler starts
immediately; type 2 activates other heat source
immediately, but doesnt start unless the timer
times out; type 3 (LEAD boiler) starts immedi
-
ately and sends 0–10 VDC signal to others aer
t
imer times out; type 4 receives signal from
LEAD boiler and starts immediately (and starts
timer for the next boiler, if programmed)
Ignition on
y Aer prepurge times out, begin ignition cycle
y Activate gas valve and ignition spark
y Continue ignition spark for ignition period
y Turn o spark and use electrode to check for
ame signal
Space
heating
y Flame detected
y Hold boiler at low re for 1 minute
y Release boiler to modulation
y NOTE: If ame is not detected, the gas valve
is turned o, blower turns on (postpurge), and
control starts cycle again. Aer 5 failures, the
control waits 60 minutes, then tries again.
y If priority timer times out, switch to next priority
and start priority timer
y If demand satised, go to postpurge
DHW
heating
y Flame detected
y Release boiler to modulation immediately
y NOTE: If ame is not detected, the gas valve
is turned o, blower turns on (postpurge), and
control starts cycle again. Aer 5 failures, the
control waits 60 minutes, then tries again.
y If priority timer times out, switch to next priority
and start priority timer
y If demand satised, go to postpurge
Blower on
y Demand satised (temperature reaches target
temperature or limit setting)
y Gas valve o
y Blower to ignition speed for postpurge
y Return to standby aer purge
Maintenance
y Display turns RED, toggling between graphic
screen and maintenance screen (occurs when
maintenance schedule timer times out)
y Will show during standby only
y Boiler operates as normal
Error/fault
y Display turns RED due to error or limit event
y Flashing display means lockout condition —
display toggles between three screens as in
Figure124,page117.
WWSD
y Warm weather shutdown — the boiler will not
be allowed to re if the outside temperature is
greater than the WWSD setting.
