General 
Description
Idle 1 The boiler is in standby-no call for heat Standby
Run circulator Heat request present but boiler temp sufficiently high to run 
circulator pump only (no ignition sequence)
Wait for pressure 
switch to open
2 The inducer is off and the control waits for the pressure switch to open.  This is 
checked at the beginning of a heat cycle before turning on the inducer. If the 
pressure switch doesn't open in 60 seconds, the control goes to state 11.
Wait for pressure 
switch to close
3 The inducer is turned on. The control is waiting for the pressure switch to close at 
the beginning of a cycle. If the pressure switch doesn't close within 60 seconds, the 
control goes to state 12
3secs  safety relay test delay time when status 4 or 6 is interrupted pressure switch 
to open. Then control goes to state 12
Prepurge 
(includes PV short 
diagnostics)
4 System is purging before ignition trial-safety relay diagnostics followed safety relay 
switch-on  during last 2 secs this state
Spark, Ignition 
activation
6 System is sparking permanently 13 seconds whilst  main valve relay is turned on
Prove Flame 7 System is proving flame signal, typically 2 seconds
Running 8 System is in running mode, flame signal must be present.
Postpurge 9 System is purging at the end of a call for heat
Inter-purge 
(Retry/ Recycle 
Delay)
10 If the control loses flame signal during state 7 or 8 , it will 
recycle through the 30 seconds  purge time and last  2secs.part 
of  prepurge time
Re-Start delay due 
to flame failure
Wait for pressure 
switch to open - 
failed closed
11 The inducer is still off, and the pressure switch has not opened at the beginning of 
the heat cycle. An alarm message is sent but the control is not in lockout.
Wait for pressure 
SW to close - 
failed open
12 The inducer is still on, waiting time for pressure switch to close expired. An alarm 
message is sent but the control is not in lockout.
Soft Lockout 13 System is shutdown and will re-start following an enforced delay
Hard Lockout - 
non-volatile
14 System is locked out.  A manual reset is required to be able to light off again
Wait for Limit to 
Close
15 There may be a call for heat from the thermostat, but the limit switch is open.
flame out of 
sequence - before 
trial
16 Flame signal sensed  before trial for ignition. Appropriate alarm 
is sent
Flame present out 
of sequence
flame out of 
sequence - after 
trial
Flame out of sequence during postpurge. Appropriate alarm is 
sent
Wait for flame loss Flame signal still present when not expected. Appropriate 
alarm is sent
Leakage 
Detection
17 HW self check, check of connected periphery, it is performed at 
start up, in the beginning of the heat cycle and in the "Wait For 
Recovery" state
Self Test
Wait For Recovery There is an external error and the control is waiting to recover, 
no lockout
Self Test
