Settings are viewable only if the outdoor reset module and out-

door temperature sensor are installed and functioning properly.

Settings are viewable only if the domestic hot water module

and sensor are installed and functioning properly.

Operation

The L7224 and L7248 models can be in any of four

operational states: Normal, High Limit, Low Limit and

Error. The controller moves back and forth from

High Limit to Normal to Low Limit state as part of normal

operation. Only devices having High Limit settings are

restricted to the High Limit and Normal states. However,

the controller will enter the Error state when there is an

abnormal condition. The operating states are:

1. Normal: Boiler temperature went below the High

Limit setting (minus the Differential) and has not

exceeded the High Limit setting; or, the boiler

temperature went above the Low Limit setting and

has not gone below the Low Limit setting (minus the

Differential); or, ZR input is not powered with 120

Vac (only L7248L with ELL set On).

2. High Limit: Boiler temperature went above the High

Limit setting and has not dropped below the High

Limit setting (minus the Differential).

3. Low Limit: Boiler temperature went below the Low

Limit setting (minus the Low Limit Differential) and

has not gone above the Low Limit setting; or, ZR

input is powered with 120 Vac (only L7248L with

ELL set On).

4. Error: The controller has detected an error condition

(e.g., open sensor) and has shut down the burner

output. The ZC output is energized. The controller

continues to monitor the system and automatically

restarts if the error condition clears. Refer toTable 4.

The operating sequence for the L7224/L7248 is shown in

Table 6–9.

High Limit Controller

The High Limit opens and turns off the burner when the

water temperature reaches the setpoint. The High Limit

automatically resets after the water temperature drops

past the setpoint and through the Differential. The L7248

models have High Limit Differential presets of 15 °F

(8 °C). The L7224 models have High Limit Differential

presets of 10 °F (6 °C).

Low Limit and Circulator

Controller

On a temperature rise, with the adjustable Differential at

the default setting of 10 °F (6 °C), the burner circuit

breaks and the circulator circuit makes (assuming no call

for heat is present) at the Low Limit setpoint. On a

temperature drop of 10 °F (6 °C) below the Low Limit

setpoint, the burner circuit makes and the circulator circuit

breaks. See Fig. 7.

Fig. 7. Setpoints and differentials.

Anti Short-Cycle Feature

The Anti Short-Cycle feature allows for field selection of a

delay time between burner cycles. Should a call for heat

occur following the end of the previous heat cycle and

before the Anti Short-Cycle delay time is expired, the

circulator will be allowed to run, but the burner will be held

off until the time has elapsed. The range of the Anti Short-

Cycle time is from OFF to five minutes.
