• When Shutdown or Tstat is selected, the Day/Night Schedules will be available in the operating menu. See "Shutdown/Tstat/

Setback Mode" on page 19. Terminals 31 and 32 will function as a Shutdown (Turn off boilers when shorted) or as a Tstat (Turn off

boilers when opened). However, a call for DHW will bring the boilers on.

• When Setback is selected, the External Signal option will switch the M4-CNC to Setback mode when terminals 31 and 32 are

shorted. This allows an external device or control to provide the setback signal. No scheduling or boost menu options will be

available with Setback.

• The morning Boost is designed to return the building to comfortable ambient temperatures

after the cooler Night (Setback) period. The M4-CNC will accomplish this by running

elevated water temperatures (will add Setback setting to calculated water temperature) for

30 minutes before the start of the Day schedule setting. That is, if the normal day set point

at a specific outdoor was 145˚F and the Setback setting was 20˚F, the boost will raise the

system calculated temperature to 165˚F for 30 minutes before the start of the Day Schedule

setting.

• If no Boost is needed, then simply select Disabled from the Boost Menu.

• Boost is only available if Shutdown or Tstat is selected as an option. See "Shutdown/Tstat/

Setback Mode" on page 19.

• The Sensor Fault will determine the operating status of all output stages that has their Mode

set to Auto when a sensor reads Short or Open.

• When All-On is selected, the M4-CNC will turn all boilers On to 100% when the System

reads Short or Open and the outdoor temperature is below Outdoor Cutoff. However, when

the Outdoor reads Short or Open, the M4-CNC will try to maintain the Maximum Water

Temperature.

• When All-Off is selected, the M4-CNC will turn all boilers Off when either the System or

the Outdoor sensor reads Short or Open. However, when the Outdoor reads Short or Open,

the M4-CNC will try to maintain the Minimum Water Temperature.
