(a) Enter C, followed by the number to the right of the displayed option to be changed, and

then press <Rtn>.

(b) Enter the desired value or setting for the option and press <Rtn>. Refer to Chapter 3,

Tables 3-2 through 3-5 for allowable entry ranges and settings for the Operating, Setup,
Configuration and Tuning Menus. (The Calibration and Diagnostic Menus should only
be used by Factory-Trained service personnel).

(c) Menu changes will be stored in non-volatile memory.

11. To redisplay the menu and view the option which was just changed in step 5, enter D and

press <Rtn>.

12. To display the Fault (F) Log, Sensor (S) Log or Time (T) Line Log, press F, S or T followed

by <Rtn>. Refer to paragraph 9.4 for descriptions and samples of these data logs.

13. To log off and terminate the RS232 communication link, press L followed by <Rtn>.

9.4 DATA LOGGING

During operation, the C-More Control Panel continuously monitors and logs data associated
with operational events, faults and sensor readings associated with the boiler or water heater
system. Descriptions of these data logs are provided in the following paragraphs. The basic
procedure for accessing each data log is described in paragraph 9.3, step 7.

9.4.1 Fault Log

The C-More Control Panel logs the last 20 faults (0 – 19) starting with the most recent (#0).
They can be viewed in the front panel display or via the RS232 port. The Fault Log cannot be
cleared. If the Fault Log already contains 10 faults, the earliest fault is overwritten when a new
fault occurs. A sample Fault Log display is shown in Table 9-1.

NOTE

The Operation Time (T) Log can store thousands of records. Therefore, to
view the most recently logged record, enter “T” followed by 0 (zero) and
press Enter (i.e. T0 <Enter>). To view earlier records in reverse
chronological order, enter T and press Enter. To go back 200 or 1000
records, enter T200 or T1000, etc. and press Enter.

9.4.2 Operation Time Log

The Operation Time Log consists of a string of ASCII records stored in non-volatile memory
within the C-More Control Panel. Events such as power-up, ignition and turn-off are time
stamped. Data logged while the unit is running are run-length encoded. Data is logged or the
run-length incremented every 30 seconds. For a new run record to be logged, the fire rate or
flame strength must change by more than 5%, or the run mode must change. At steady-state,
the run-length is allowed to reach a maximum of 30 minutes before the record is logged. This
