1) Manually shut off the fuel supply to one individual pilot and

main burner, or all burners if the system has a single fuel supply.

2) Place system in pilot test mode (please refer to page 15).

3) Start the system normally. The controller should lock out*; if it

doesn’t, then the controller is detecting a false flame signal (see
Section 7). Find the problem and correct it before resuming
normal operation.

4) Repeat steps 1 through 4 until all burners have been tested.

1) Manually shut off the fuel supply to the main burner, or all burn-

ers if the system has a single fuel supply, but not to the pilot.

2) Start the system normally. This should ignite the pilot and lock

out* after pilot interruption. If the system does not lock out, the
controller is detecting a false flame signal (see Section 7). Find
the problem and correct it before resuming normal operation.

3) Repeat steps 1 through 3 until all burners have been tested.

1) Manually shut off the fuel supply to the pilot and main burner.

2) Start the system normally.

3) Measure the flame signal as described in “Flame Signal Strength”

in this section.

4) If a flame signal greater than 4 VDC is measured for more than

three seconds during the trial for ignition, the sensor is picking
up a signal from the spark plug or the ignition current is inter-
fering with the sensor wiring. If this is an abnormal condition,
correct before resuming normal operation.

Periodically check all interlock and limit switches by manually trip-
ping them during burner operation to make sure they cause the
system to shut down.

Warning
Never operate a system that is improperly adjusted or
has faulty interlocks or limit switches. Always replace
faulty equipment with new equipment before resum-
ing operation. Operating a system with defective
safety equipment can cause explosions, injuries, and
property damage.

*

The burner at which a flame fails will be identified by the red “Flame Fail-
ure” LED on the cover.
