Hello
Testing out the Meridian with the Lux TX1500U T-Stat with swing set to 8 in Auto-On/Off mode
Wow, I thought the stove would never shut down! So RTFM and found the board goes to Lo heat level for 30 min before shutting down to prevent short cycling! LOL!
So I changed the swing to 1 and set T-Stat for 75. Well the room and the T-Stat went to 86 Deg F before finally shutting down!
Is there anyway to eliminate the 30 min run on Lo without changing the micro code and burning a new chip or using a different manufacturers control panel?
I would rather just use the swing setting in the T-Stat instead.
From the Enviro Manual
OPERATION:
When the thermostat contacts close, the unit will light automatically. Once up to temperature, the stove operates the same as in MANUAL. When the thermostat contacts open, the stove’s HEAT LEVEL and Fans will drop down to the LOW setting for 30 minutes. If the thermostat contacts close within the 30 min, the HEAT LEVEL will return to the previous MANUAL setting. If the thermostat contacts remain open the stove automatically begins its shutdown routine. The stove will re-light when the thermostat contacts close again.
