DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTIONS
2. Description of functions
2.1 General
The BIC 960 automatic ring device is designed for use in a modulating gas boiler. There for a PWM fan is triggered
by the automatic ring device. This fan has a supply voltage of 230V which is shut-off by an internal relay during
downtimes in order to reduce stand-by losses. Fan revolution speed modulation is controlled via an internal PID con-
troller in order to maintain the desired ow temperature. The ow reference value is not determined in the automatic
ring device, but is calculated and passed on via the heating controller.
The BIC 960 automatic ring device can be used in connection with the TopTronic®T/UG heating controller or
TopTronic® E basic module heat generator, why the BIC 960 is installed in the background, i.e. the circuit board is
not visible from the outside, and complete operation is controlled via the heating controller. The result is a unique
principle of operation at boiler level via one interface.
2.2 Water heater-Charging
Switch-over between hot water charging and heating demand is controlled by the heating controller.
2.3 Emission measuring and/or test function for gas valve setting
There is a specic key on the heating control unit allocated for emission measurements and/or gas valve adjustment.
By using the emission key, a mode of operation is initiated in which the automatic ring device operates in heating
mode, with an assigned reference value of 80°C, and in which power output can be adjusted manually using the
rotary button. After 20 minutes emission testing operation is ended automatically, and the boiler reverts to the prior
operation mode. It is important to ensure that the heat produced during emission testing can also be discharged.
When setting boiler performance in terms of percentage values, ensure that 1% is the set minimum performance and
100% is the set maximum performance. In between, there is a linear relationship, on which is it possible to set the
desired boiler performance.
2.4 Main switch
The main switch is located on the front of the heating control unit. It takes care for the power supply of the heating
control unit and of the automatic ring device, located in the background. When the switch is turned off, frost protec-
tion is not active.
2.5 Main gas valve (possibly LPG-valve) / heating room fan
An external main gas valve (possibly a uid gas valve) and/or a heating room fan can be controlled by the automatic
ring device. The output is activated a set time (depending on the parameter settings) before activation of the burner
start. This application requires a suitable parameterisation of the automatic ring device. Ensure that the heat-
ing controller display shows the blocking B:04 (main gas valve) possibly LPG-valve)/ heating room fan) during the
burner start delay. Blocking is no longer shown beginning with BIC 960 V.3, but the waiting time has been retained.
2.6 External burner switch
Locking or activation of the automatic ring device takes place via the heating controller. The parameters must be
set to allow a suitable variable input, as described in the Customer-service technicians introduction to the heating
controller.
A further possibility is provided by blocking input X9-1/X9-4 via which the automatic ring unit can be set to blocked
status. In this case no error message is displayed at the heating controller.

DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTIONS
2.7 Short description of the functions of the BIC 960 automatic firing device
Since the automatic ring device can only perform in connection with the heating controller, many common functions
are already given via this. The list below contains only those characteristics which are integrated in the automatic
ring device:
- Modulating operating mode
- Combined electrode for ignition and ame monitoring (Ionisation)
- Main gas valve (possibly LPG-valve) and/or heating room fan acitvatable
- Inputs for Flow sensor 1
Flow sensor 2
Flue gas sensor
Water pressure sensor
Safety and limit value thermostat (external exhaust gas temperature switch possible)
Air pressure switch (not used)
Gas pressure switch
- “Alarm” and “Flame monitoring” status outputs
- Additional (external) ignition can be attached
- RS 485- connection to heating controller
- RS 232-connection to PC
- Number of start-up attempts: maximum 4
- Safety time: 5 secs
- Pre-ignition: 5 secs
- Pre-venting: 50 secs
- Pump after-run time (230V AC): 5 min after heating demand
Faults:
If there is a fault, an error code will appear on the display of the heating controller. Pressing the reset button, located
under the hinged cover on the front of the unit, will release the automatic burner, and the boiler will resume opera-
tion, if the fault has been rectied. For more detailed information, see section 7.
Fuses:
The BIC 960 has 3 safety fuses: 2AT Mains
4AT Pump
4AT Burner fan
What happens when the fuses blow
4AT (Pump) Pump fails to start.
4AT (Burner fan) Burner fan fails to start. If a rotation set value has been allocated for the burner fan,
an error message E:18 (“Fan rotation speed below limit”) will appear after a short
period of time, indicating that the fuse has blown.
2AT (Mains) there is no communication between the automatic ring unit and the heating control-
ler. As a result an error message is displayed on the heating controller.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PARAMETERS
2.8 Access to the automatic firing device
The boiler is operated in the same way as described in the operating instructions of the heating controller. The auto-
matic ring device operating in the background can be accessed using a special menu tree on the heating controller.
This menu allows access to the “BOILER CONTR” or “AUTO M/C” submenu, where it is possible to view an informa-
tion level and a parameter level.
‟INFORMATION”: As well as actual system values, which can be displayed via the Info-key, this option also al-
lows specic state variables to be viewed.
(for further information see “Display of Information from the Automatic Firing Device”)
‟PARAMETER”: Depending on the user level, which can be reached using various code levels, it is possible to
amend certain parameters. If using a Notebook (SITBIC960lab - Software), parameter settings
are also dependant on the code level. (for more information about controlling the automatic
ring device using a laptop, see ‟operating using a laptop”).
Attention: Afteraresetattheheatingcontrollertheparametersattheautomaticgasringdevicewill
notberesettedtobasicsetting!
2.9 Reference values in the case of bus interruption
If there is an interruption in the bus connection between the heating controller and the automatic ring device, the
automatic ring device begins to operate in emergency mode, which means that a set value of 75°C (parameter 8) is
adopted. In addition, an error message is displayed on the heating controller.
3. Description of the parameters
The parameters can be set using the parameter tree of the heating controller, and also using the SITBIC960lab -
Software on a Notebook. On SITBIC960lab-software, the parameters are not indicated with a number, but with a
number and letter combination, which can be seen below in brackets.
Parameter 1 (2AA/32769): Blocking temperature
The value of the parameter determines at what boiler sensor temperature the burner is switched off.
(“B:08”)
Parameter 2 (2AC/32770): Maximum reference value
The reference value, which is set in manual operation, and/or which is calculated by the TopTronicT®/UG in auto-
matic operation, is here limited to a set value.
Parameter 3 (2AD/32771): Switch-off hysteresis above reference value
If during a heat demand, the temperature rises above the reference value plus the value entered here, the burner
switches off. See functional drawing 1.
Parameter 4 (2AE/32772): Switch-on difference relating to tripping point
When the temperature falls below the reference value + switch-off hysteresis (Parameter 3) – switch-on difference
(Parameter 4), the burner demand is activated. See functional drawing 1.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PARAMETERS
Parameter 31 (2FJ/32799): Upward ramp of the fan during venting
If the number of rotations changes during venting, a higher number of rotations can be achieved using the upward
ramp set here.
Parameter 32 (2FK/32800): Downward ramp of the fan during venting
If the number of rotations changes during venting, a lower number of rotations can be achieved using the downward
ramp set here.
Parameter 33 (2FL/32801): Upward ramp of the fan during operation
If the number of rotations changes during operation, a higher number of rotations is limited using the upward ramp
set here.
Parameter 34 (2FM/32802): Downward ramp of the fan during operation
If the number of rotations changes during operation, a lower number of rotations is limited using the downward ramp
set here.
Parameter 35 (2FN/32803): Post-venting of the fan after lock-out
If lock-out occurs (not on the occurrence of a blocking or other boiler switch-off) post-venting occurs for the period
set under this parameter, and at a speed set under Parameter 36.
Parameter 36 (2FO/32804): Fan speed after a normal switch-off or after lock-out/blocking
After lock-out and/or blocking has occurred, or after switch-off has occurred in normal operation, the fan will operate
at the speed set here for the period of time set under Parameter 35 or Parameter 37.
Parameter 37 (2FR/32805): Fan afterrun time after operation or blocking
After a heat demand and/or after blocking of the boiler, the fan operates for the period of time dened here, and at
the speed set under Parameter 36.
Parameter 38 (2FU/32806): Fan speed at boiler freeze protection
If the boiler is not in operation and the temperature of ow temperature sensor 1 falls below the 3°C limit, the boiler
starts up and operates with the fan speed set here until the switch-off limit of 10°C is exceeded.
Parameter 39 (2GA/32807): Waiting time after opening main gas valve or activation of heating room fan
If there is a burner demand, the boiler start is delayed for the period of time set here. During this waiting period,
which is necessary for the opening of the main gas valve or for pre-venting using the heating room fan, the blocking
notication “B:04” is shown. This blocking is no longer shown as of BIC 960 V.3. The ext. gas valve closes again as
soon as the burner has switched off.
Parameter 40 (2GB/32808): External main gas valve/heating room fan available
This parameter denes whether or not an external main gas valve or a heating room fan is available.
Parameter 41 (2HA/32809): Afterrun heating pump or shut-off valve
If the boiler switches off because there is no longer a demand for heat, an afterrun of the heating pump or shut-off
valve occurs. The duration of this afterrun can be set using this parameter.
Note: if the boiler switches off due to blocking or lock-out, or because the reference value + hysteresis has been
exceeded, this afterrun period does not occur, and the pump and/or shut-off valve continue to operate indenitely.
