The PC702-1 is a microprocessor-based control designed to regulate the supply water temperature
from a two stage boiler system based on the outdoor temperature or DHW requirements. A wiring
harness is provided to be easily connected to the Taco Expandable (-EXP) Controls.
The PC702-1 includes functions such as automatic reset ratio calculation, W
arm Weather Shut Down
(WWSD), Minimum Boiler setting, adjustable interstage delay setting, optional boiler rotation, and an
optional automatic boiler differential. The control has a digital, liquid crystal display (LCD) that nor-
mally displays the Boiler Supply temperature, but can display other temperatures and settings.

Control Strategy
OUTDOOR RESET
In order to properly control a hot water heating system, the heat supplied
to the building must equal the heat lost by the building.
• The heat supplied to a building is proportional to the temperature of the
supply water and the surface area of the heating element. A small surface
area such as baseboard radiators requires a higher water temperature
than a larger surface area such as radiant floors.
• The heat lost from a building is dependent on the outdoor temperature,
as well as other factors. As the outdoor temperature drops, the building
heat loss increases.

Summary

Control Strategy

OUTDOOR RESET

Explains how heating systems match heat supplied to heat lost based on outdoor temp.

Reset Ratio

Reset Ratio Starting Point

Combination of boiler starting temp and outdoor starting temp for reset ratio calculation.

Design Conditions

Required water temp during the coldest day of the year for reset ratio calculation.

Boiler Operation Fundamentals

Warm Weather Shut Down (WWSD)

Heating system shuts down when outdoor temp is warmer than WWSD setting.

Differential

Boiler on/off cycling with a differential to prevent short cycling and improve efficiency.

Minimum Boiler Supply

Minimum supply water temp to prevent boiler corrosion from flue gas condensation.

DHW Boiler Supply

Control overrides reset ratio for DHW demand, raising supply temp for DHW generation.

System Demands and Operation

Boiler Demand

Control obtains boiler demand from Taco Zone Control when a zone calls for heat.

DHW Demand

Control obtains DHW demand when voltage is applied across DHW demand wires.

Boiler Operation Modes

Warm Weather Shut Down (WWSD)

Control displays WWSD segment and turns off boiler when outdoor temp rises above setting.

Boiler Demand Operation

System supply water temp controlled by cycling boiler based on outdoor temp & reset ratio.

DHW Demand Operation

Control targets a supply water temperature of at least 180°F (83°C) for DHW demand.

Maximum Boiler Supply

Control does not allow boiler target temp to exceed design temp plus 10°F or 225°F max.

Minimum Boiler Supply

Setting selects minimum boiler target temp to prevent corrosion from flue gas condensation.

Advanced Boiler Control

Boiler Rotation

Optional boiler rotation function fixed at 48 hours to equalize stage running time.

Staging Logic

Control manages two stages using interstage delay and PID logic for target temperature supply.

Interstage Delay

Interstage Delay Setting

Sets minimum time delay between first and second stage firing.

Installation Steps

Step One: Check Package Contents

Check package contents, contact sales rep for missing or damaged items.

Step Two: Install Control Unit

Instructions for mounting the control enclosure onto a 2" x 4" electrical box.

Step Two: Install Outdoor Sensor

Mounting the outdoor sensor on a wall representing the building's heat load.

Step Two: Install Boiler Sensor

Strapping the boiler sensor to a pipe or placing in a temperature immersion well.

Wiring Connections

Wire to Zone Control

Connect PC702-1 cable to Taco Zone Control Add-On interface, set Mode switch to Reset.

Wire Sensors

Connect Outdoor Sensor to Com/Out terminals and Boiler Sensor to Com/Sup terminals.

Wire Boilers

Stage 1 & 2 terminals are isolated outputs used as switches to control boiler circuits.

DHW Demand Wiring

Apply voltage to DHW demand wires to generate a DHW demand.

Configuration Settings

Boiler Starting Temperature (BOIL Start)

Sets the starting supply water temperature for the reset ratio, adjustable 35-150°F.

Outdoor Starting Temperature (OUTDR Start)

Outdoor temp at which starting temp is supplied, adjustable 35-85°F.

Boiler Design Temperature (BOIL DSGN)

Water temp required for building heat loss at coldest outdoor temp.

Outdoor Design Temperature (OUTDR DSGN)

Outdoor temp used in heat loss calculation, set to typical coldest outdoor temp.

Boiler Minimum Supply Temperature (BOIL MIN)

Minimum operating temp to prevent boiler corrosion from flue gas condensation.

Control Adjustment Parameters

Differential Adjustment (DIFF)

Sets how far supply temp may deviate before boiler turns on/off, can be Auto or 2-42°F.

Interstage Delay Setting

Sets minimum time delay between first and second stage firing, 30s to 4 min.

Warm Weather Shut Down (WWSD) Setting

Boiler shuts down when outdoor temp is warmer than setting (35-100°F or Off).

Adjust Menu Operation

Enter adjustment mode by pressing and holding Item, A, and V buttons simultaneously.

System Status and Troubleshooting

Power Up and View Menu

Control displays segments, version, then outdoor temp; view menu shows temperatures.

Troubleshooting Sensor Faults

Identifies faults like outdoor/supply sensor errors or EEPROM faults and their effects.

Troubleshooting Settings Guidance

Tips for adjusting settings based on room comfort and boiler cycling issues.

Sensor Testing Procedure

Procedure for testing sensor resistance using a meter and comparing to a chart.

Final Steps and Technical Information

Final Installation and User Explanation

Secure wiring cover, place front cover, and explain operation to end user.

Error Message Reference

Displays error messages for EEPROM, Outdoor Sensor, and Boiler Sensor faults.

Technical Data Specifications

Lists control specifications, dimensions, approvals, and environmental conditions.
