External switch control, outside reset, and other questions
I was seeing if anyone was utilizing the External Stop control funcion when using a buffer tank, or "accumulator" as referenced from the manual? I was all set to use a simple aquastat with a large...

Has anyone found a way to associate Outdoor reset or External Stop to be associated with separate temperature sensors vs the the same one (T5)? I am running my 102kbtu Kedel in a primary/secondary loop...

Does anyone know how to clear the information message telling me I need to chec my pellet fuel feed rates? I adjusted my fan speeds so the o2 regulator was not compensating as much and it wouldn't go...
View ArticleRe: 02 correction
The message will go away after time once you get the feed rates and fan rates correct. You can use the screen called "show graph", accessed through the oxygen control menu to determine how to adjust...

Based on looking at your system online, it appears as though you have this figured out. Yes, you can use T5 in conjunction with the Internet Based weather compensation. A differential greater than 20...

Thanks for the help Ryan. I was asking these questions before turning the system on, but after reading the manual. Even though my manual says a 1-20* span is allowed for in the External stop reset, I...

Thanks for the explaination of that graph, Ryan... I couldn't figure out what that was telling me! As I understand it, o2 correction will initially take place with the fan alone, up to the allowable...

Is it possible to access the raw data from the boiler? Clearly it's streaming some sort of data off to the Danish cloud. :) The graphs are sort of nice, but really not the best. I would love to...
View ArticleOutdoor reset overshoot
We're loving the new outdoor reset function! It's clearly limiting cycles and improving performance. I've seen a few times now, thought, that the system seems to overshoot the reset temperature. I've...

Unfortunately, it isn't possible at this point in time. We are working on enhancing the data available through the web interface. Keep an eye out for increased functionality soon!
View ArticleRe: 02 correction
You're right on all of it but the "blocking time". If the O2 is out of range for an extended period of time, the controller will stop feeding pellets for the "blocking time". As for the O2, it will...

Thanks for the info! Any idea on timeframe? If it's a long time I may just put a traffic logger on the firewall and rip the data that way.

My user manual does not cover the moving grate settings. Can you let me know the proper settings? One of the settings is "cleaning after ___ lbs". My current setting for this field is "0". Is this...

The moving grate is not a function that is used on the current model of burners. Those menu items are there as a part of the software package for future products. I hope all is well!

I have a boiler that was running very well. It's a 170 with outdoor reset control, and it was doing what I would expect, with output usually 1.7x power. One day, without knowingly adjusting any...
View ArticleRe: Modifying Output and Power
Hey Pat, It looks like the O2 reading is only 16% or so when the boiler is off. From what I have seen, when they’re off like that, the amount that it’s off by seems to stay the same as the O2 goes...

I thought the largest kedel unit was 102 btu - you have a 170 btu? I have actually been having oxygen control problems also. My oxygen readings have been fluctuating wildly (0.1 to 21%). When I try to...
