already engaged, cold start will disengage at the ThresholdOff temper

ThresholdOnandThresholdOffisrequiredforcoldstart.
NOTE: Parameters ThresholdOn and ThresholdOff are percentages based on the current
setpoint (W1).If an additional temperature sensor is used on a steam boiler, ThresholdOn
andThresholdOffwillbebasedonparameterSetpAddSensor.
3. For a steam boiler that is on a common header with other steam boilers, an additional
temperaturesensorisrequiredforcoldstart.ThiswilltypicallybeaPt1000orNi1000RTDwired
to terminal X60.Pt100 is possible but not recommended.Choose the appropriate sensor via
parameterAdditionalSens.

a. BasicLowFireHold
The LMV5 will be held at low fire until the ThresholdOff temperature is reached, and
then the LMV5 will be released to modulate. This “hold” will re‐engage when the
temperaturefallsbelowtheThresholdOnvalue.ParameterStageLoadmustbesetto0.
b. Temperature‐basedSteppingSt
art
The LMV5 will be held at low fire until a certain temperature change is detected
, and
then a step up in burner output (load) will be taken. This continues until the
ThresholdOff temperature isreached.This willachievethe ThresholdOff temperature
