1 Introduction
Touch controller (EP0012) is meant to be used as a device for controlling boilers work, but also as a smart
home controller. It is designed by keeping in mind the ease of usability, trying to keep things simple and
straightforward. Controller is included in most of boilers manufactured by Pelltech OÜ, but it can also be
used with burners that are connected to some third party boiler or absolutely separately, only using it for
controlling the home heating system.
Controller can be used as an electronic thermostat, boiler cleaning controller and heating controller
through two 3T valve motors with all burners manufactured by Pelltech OÜ. Controller touchscreen reacts
to a finger or a blunt object touch.
1.1 Specification
Touch controller is designed to work from a 5V power supply that in normal use is supplied by the burner.
If controller is used separately, 5V external power supply is needed.
Controller has the following inputs:
• 7 resistive temperature inputs. Supported are sensors with 1k NTC element or 1k PT1000
element
• 1 voltage input for Lambda probe
• 1 external module input for RF sensors receiver
Controller also has inputs for the door switch and safety thermostat to cut the power to the burner in case
of emergency or opened door. These inputs can also be used together with other safety circuits.
Controller has the following outputs.
• four 230V 5A outputs for controlling different objects (pumps, boiler, sauna, etc)
• two 3T valve motor outputs for controlling the mixing valves
• one 230V 5A output in use for thermostat that can be rewired to also switch 12/24V
Bontroller has two connections for communication. One, „BURNER UART” is used for communicating with
the burner. This connection is also used for powering the controller. The other connection „INTERNET
UART” is used for outside communication. To this connector, it is possible to connect a cabled internet
module, or wireless Wi-Fi module. Both of these devices will connect the boiler controller with Pelltech
server from where both the boiler controller and the burner attached to it can be followed and controlled.
Pelltech server is located at cloud.pelltech.eu. Login data can be found on the label of the module devices.
1.2 Default connection schematic
This schematic describes the controller configuration after programming it in the manufacturing.
2 Main screen
Controller main screen is divided in four main icons:
1. Room heating (house) – Room temperatures (22.8 and 21.7 °C)

1 2 and outside temperature (-4.6 °C) are displayed. From here you can
access all the settings and graphics needed to configure your room
heating system.
2. Heating (fire) – Burners current power (11 kW) is displayed. From
here you can access information and settings that affect the burners
3 4 work.
3. Pellet container (silo) – Pellets left in silo (48 kg) is displayed. From
here you can add pellets to the virtual silo and change fuel settings.
4. Water – Boiler temperature (72.3 °C) is dispayed. From here you
can change the boilers working temperature and have more direct
access to some of the relays.
6
5. Settings – Enables to adjust boiler input/output configuration
6. Additionally in the lower part of the screen are displayed burners
current state (which upon touch leads to log screen).
3 Settings
In the settings menu you can configure boilers inputs and outputs,
update controllers and burners software.
3.1 Inputs
Touch controller has 8 wired inputs. One input is used for voltage input from the oxygen sensor (Lambda),
the other inputs are compatible with RTD sensors PT1000 and NTC. Each input is individually configurable
to support many different systems.
Controllers is also capable of receiving different temperatures over radio frequency. This is mainly useful
for measuring outside and room temperatures, for what long cables should be run otherwise. Wireless
temperature sensors are also equiped with a LCD display, on what the temperature is also visible, so they
can be neatly used in inside rooms for checking the room temperature directly.
Wireless temperature sensor set consists receiver and transmitter. Transmitters are not connected to the
receiver automatically, this configuration has to be done inside the boiler controller. One receiver is
capable or receiving information from many transmitters, so if there is need for more sensors, only extra
transmitters should be acquiered.
3.1.1 Inputs configuration
Inputs are divided between 4 menus:

• Functional view – here are listed all functions with inputs they are
connected to. In this menu it is also possible to change what function is
connected to which input.
• Wired inputs – here are listed all inputs with functions they are
connected with. No changes can be made in this menu.
• RF inputs - here are listed all detected RF inputs with functions
they are connected with. No changes can be made in this menu.
• Settings – some settings that apply to inputs are located here.
3.1.2 Functional view
In this menu, there are located all functions with inputs they are connected with. First part of the input
shows its type and the other part its number that correlates with the numbers on the controller metal
cover. Clicking on any one of the functions opens its changing menu. It should be noted, that before you
can connect any input to a function, you have to disconnect it from any function that is currently using it.
3.1.3 Wired inputs
In this menu there are listed all inputs with functions they are connected
to. After the input number is also displayed the current temperature
measured form that input (if connected with a function and given an
according type). If “-” is displayed but there should be a sensor
connected to that input, then that means that there’s some problems
with the sensor. No changes can be made in this menu and it’s only
informative.
3.1.4 RF inputs
Wireless receiver connects to ULTRASONIC connector on the boiler
controller. The receiver itself should be attached to wall with screws,
using the long holes on either side of the receiver box. If no wall is
nearby, the receiver can also be placed on the boiler or attached to the
piping with zip ties.
NB! Under no circumstance should the receiver box be covered with
metal, it will render the receivers capability to get information from the
sensor to zero.
RF inputs screen displays all the RF sensors that are currently being
detected by the receiver with functions they are connected. Sensors are
removed from this list if no data has been received from them in 3
hours. RF sensors that are connected to a function aren’t removed but
marked as disconnected, so that functionality would automatically
continue working when module comes back in range. RF sensors can’t
be connected to a function in this view, it has to be done in Functional
view screen.
3.1.5 Inputs settings

Here are some settings that are used with inputs:
• Zero offset – used to calibrate inputs in the manufacturing.
• Ext. Module – Shows what type of module is used in the ULTRASONIC connector.
• Oxygen offset – used to calibrate oxygen sensors.
3.2 Outputs
Touch controller has 9 230VAC outputs (O1 – O8 and TT2), that can be individually configured to suit the
needs of the heating system. Outputs O1 – O4 are designed to control 3T valve actuator motors but can
also be used to control underfloor actuators. Maximum load on those outputs is 20 VA. Outputs O5 – O8
and TT2 (O9) are designed to control pumps, but can also be used to control other 230VAC devices.
Maximum load on those outputs is 5A but it should be noted, that overall current draw through the board
shouldn’t exceed 10A.
In the 220V outputs list are listed all outputs with their current state and purpose. This view is useful to
have an overview about the current state of outputs. Clicking on any row takes to output configuring
screen where you can change the logic how the output is used. The current view is also the default
configuration for outputs that the controller receives in the manufacturing.
3.2.1 Output setting (configuration)
Outputs settings are divided in to four:
• Object – defines the purpose of the relay. Some choices direct

the control of the relay to some other system.
• Sensor – sensor where the temperature is taken to check the

condition
• Type – defines the way how the relay is controlled
• Zone – shows the time or temperature condition on what the

relay is turned on
Name Switch type, limits By default linked object

O1 Optotriac 230VAC, max 3T-1 Close
O2 current 0.1A 3T-1 Open
O3 3T-2 Close
O4 3T-2 Open
O5 Relay 230VAC, max
O6 current 5A each.
O7
O8 Total current cannot
TT2 (O9) exceed 10A. Thermostat
3.2.2 Output object

Purpose (object) defines the device controlled by the output. Some choices direct control of the output to
another function and that’s why some settings for the output will be hidden:
• 3T-1 Close – Output will be used to close the heating cirquit 1 valve.
• 3T-1 Open – Output will be used to open the heating cirquit 1 valve.
• 3T-2 Close – Output will be used to close the heating cirquit 2 valve.
• 3T-2 Open – Output will be used to open the heating cirquit 2 valve.
• Turbulators – Output will be used to turn boiler turbulators. Settings to adjust turbulator
settings can be found under Heating menu in Cleaning section.
• Thermostat – Output will be used as boiler thermostat. Settings for the thermostat can be found
under Water menu in Boiler section. NB! This choice should only be used on the output that is
used as boiler thermostat. Using it on other outputs can cause troubles, because only the first
found thermostat output will be used and others will be ignored.
• Choices like Other, Pump and Ext.heat just describe the output so that there would be some
information on the device controlled.
Object type Control type Condition to turn ON/OFF the output Additional parameters to set up
3T-1 Close - ON if HC1 sensor temp. is too HIGH
3T-1 Open - ON if HC1 sensor temp. is too LOW
3T-2 Close - ON if HC2 sensor temp. is too HIGH
3T-2 Open - ON if HC2 sensor temp. is too LOW

3.2.3 Sensor
This choice describes the sensor which temperature will be used to control the output. All sensors
connected to the controller can be used for controlling outputs.
3.2.4 Control type
Control type defines, how the output will be controlled:
• None – Output is always OFF, no control.
• Time – two times can be defined, between what the output
will be turned ON (For example from 08:00 – 17:00).
• Threshold – One temperature can be defined. If sensor

temperature is above that, the output will be ON. If
temperature is lower, output will be OFF.
• Hysteresis - Two temperatures (T1 and T2) can be

defined. If temperature is lower from the T1 level,
output is switced ON. If temperature rise higher from T2
level, output is is turned OFF. Working principle is the
same as on boiler thermostat.
• Timer – Output will be turned ON at the moment of set up

and holded ON for defined time in hours. After the t1
period, output will be turned OFF. This is single time action
and implemented once after it is seted up. Can be use
example to turn on the sauna.
• Solar – Used for controlling the solar panel pump by

difference of temperature in the solar panel and Hot
Water (HW) boiler. Temperature sensors in hot water
boiler and solar panel must be installed. If the
temperature on the panel is 10°C higher then in the
boiler, the output will be turned ON. When the
temperature difference is smaller then 5°C, the output
will be turned OFF. If temperature in the solar panel is
higher than 90°C, the output will be kept ON.
• Always on – Output is kept permanently ON. It is meant for testing if the cabling is done
correctly, but can also be used to keep pumps or other devices ON when boiler has power.
• Schedule – Can be used to manage room

temperature with pump or valve actuator. Output is
turned OFF when room temperature is higher than
setpoint. This type is only available when „Room1“
or „Room2“ has been selected as sensor for the
output.
3.2.5 Zone
Zone will show the range of temperature or time, on which the output will be on. It is in some cases hidden,
when configuring of the working period is made elsewhere. According with control type, the zone displays:
• Time – shows time period in format XX:XX – XX:XX, when clicked on it is asked to enter turn on
hour and minute and then same info for turn off time.
• Threshold – shows turn on temperature in format > XX°C.
• Hysteresis – shows turn on and turn off temperatures in format XX°C – XX°C.
• Timer – shows how much time is left in format Xh, if timer is 0, Off is displayed.
• Solar – hidden
• Always on – hidden
• Schedule – shows two times in format XX:XX / XX:XX . After both of these times, the output will be
turned ON for 3 hours.
3.3 Software
In this menu you can see current burner and controller software and user interface version (json version).
3.4 Other
In this menu you can change screen brightness, choose system language, change the time of the controller
or access burner settings.
4 Room heating
4.1 Configuring
Configuration of the heating circuits is done under the “Room heating”
menu. Here is shown current measured outside temperature and room
temperatures with their respective setpoints. Both rooms correlate
directly with heating circuits, so that room 1 temperature and its
setpoints are used together with heating circuit 1 and room 2 together
with circuit 2.
4.2 Room influence

Room sensors are used to influence the flow temperature, when the
temperature in the room is too high or too low. This influence can be
constant (same room temperature is held throughout the day) or
change during the day. Up to four different periods (modes) can be
configured, during what the held temperature will be raised or lowered
in reference to the room setpoint. There are two different schedules,
one that is followed on weekdays and other that is followed on
weekends, so you can have different influence when you are at work or
at home.
In the graph menu (only seen in comfort mode) representation of the current heating plan can be seen.
From here it can be set desired temperature at specific time. All temperatures and times can be changed
by clicking on them. As in the example below, if for weekdays morning is set 25°C, then from 06:00 – 09:00
it is kept 25°C and from 09:00 – 17:30 it is kept 20°C.
5 Pellet container
5.1 Adding pellets
Main way of adding pellets to the virtual silo is through the “Add
pellets” button on the pellet container screen. This takes to a view,
where it is possible to add pellets by pellet bag. Pellet bag size can be
changed in the fuel settings. By default, one bag is already in the entry
window and each click on the arrow will add or remove one bag.
Amount of pellets left in the silo can also be changed with the slider,
located on left of the pellet container screen. Changes made with the
slider have to be confirmed with the OK button that will be displayed
over the settings button in the lower right corner. Leaving the screen
with the back button doesn’t save the changes.
NB: Since the pellet count can be monitored in three different
places (at the burner, at the touch controller and in the cloud) the
manufacturer recommends to adjust the count only in one place.
This way the counter will provide excact count at least in one of
the place.
6 Heating
In the heating menu is located main information about the current state
of the burner and parameters. As all burners have a little bit different
parameter set, the final list of parameters in each menu can vary
between controllers attached to different burners. Parameters that
aren’t available from this menu can either be under the pellet container
(fuel parameters) or they can be access under the main settings where
there is a list of all the parameters that influence burners work.
Parameters and info in this menu are sorted between four main menus:
• Power – here you will find the parameter set used to control
burner’s power management. For more detailed information about
burner parameters and their descriptions can be found in software
manuals.
• Fluegas – here is the current data and parameters that are related
to fluegas and oxygen.
• Fan – here you can change the fan speeds at each power levels and
different states.
• Cleaning – here you will find parameters that have an effect on the
burner and boiler cleaning settings.
7 Water
Water screen (Boiler) gives access to changing the setpoint and hysteresis
of the boiler electronic thermostat. These settings will only take effect if
one of the outputs is marked as „Thermostat”.
Three other screens gives straight access to some of the outputs that are
configured accordingly, Tap water giving access to the output that is
configured as pump and using Hot Water temperature as its sensor input.
In this menu can be seen the current temperatures (in black) and
temperature setpoints (in yellow).
7.1 Heating cirquits

Boiler controller is capable of controlling two heating circuits by varying the water temperature inside the
radiators or floors. This is done with mixing valves which motors are driven by the controller. These valves
controlling can be constant or dependant on the room and outside temperature, to make the inside
temperature comfortable at any weather.
This menu enables to choose cirquit type, shows current temperature that is connected to its input and
how open currently the valve is and enables calibration of 3T valves.
The main way to control the heating circuit is with the heating graph that sets into relation the flow
temperature and outside temperature. In case when the weather gets colder, the temperature inside the
heating circuit is also raised to compensate the change. This correlation can be set in the heating graph
where in a graphical representation is shown the correlation. The flow temperature is in the vertical axis
and outside temperature in the horisontal axis. Graph can be adjusted when for cirquit type are chosen
either floor or radiator.
Heating circuit can also be set to hold a constant temperature, to use it for controlling the return water to
boiler or just to feed constant water to a system.
7.1.1 Motors
Boiler controller by default is already configured for attaching two
mixing valve motors. First two outputs (O1 and O2) are meant for the
first circuit and next outputs (O3 and O4) are meant for second circuit
as described in the image. O1 and O3 are configured for closing the
circuit, to lower the temperature in the circuit and O2 and O4 are
configured for opening the circuit to raise the temperature. If
connections are already made and the motors start to work the
opposite way then there’s always possibility to change the directions
in the output menu also.
7.2 Parameters
Heating circuits work strongly depends on it’s parameter configuration. Followed are some explanations
of their work:
• Outside max -> Max flow temp – These are the same numbers that are represented on the heating
graph and describe the relation between the outside and flow temperature.
• Quick turn – describes the valve turning ratio if flow temperature difference to the setpoint is
smaller than 3.0°C. Must be multiplied with turn time to get the time in seconds.
• Long turn – describes the valve turning ratio if flow temperature difference to the setpoint is
higher than 3.0°C. Must be multiplied with turn time to get the time in seconds.
• Flow hysteresis – If difference between real temperature and setpoint is smaller than this, the
valve isn’t turned.
• Sample time – Describes, how often the flow temperature is checked. This same time also applies
to how often the valve is turned.
• Turn time – Should show how long does it take for the mixing valve motor to turn from one end
to another. This time should be located on the motor and must be entered to this parameter
before use, otherwise the control can be too fast or too slow.
• Inertia – If this number is bigger than 0 then tendency of the flow temperature is checked. Inertia
shows how far temperature is used with current tendency. Time can be calculated by multiplying
Inertia with sample time. (For an example when Inertia is 3 and sample time is 20 seconds then
the valve turning decision will be made by looking what will the temperature be in 60 seconds
when the current tendency would last).
• Flow setpoint – This temperature is used when constant temperature hold is chosen as circuit type
or when outdoor temperature sensor has failed.
• Room factor – shows how much does room temperature difference to setpoint influence the flow
temperature. To get room temperature influence, this number has to be multiplied with the room
temperature difference (For an example: when room temperature difference is +0.5°C (setpoint
is higher than room temperature) and Room factor is 5 then flow temperature will be raised 2.5°C).
8 Screen calibration
If there are problems with screen (doesn’t react, acting weird), then it probably needs calibration. To do
that, hold your finger on the screen for ~10 seconds. If you remove the finger, the screen should go white
with one dot on the upper part of the screen. Press on the dot after what another one appears. Press on
that also and on the next on too. (There should appear three dots on different parts of the screen).
You have 8 seconds to push each calibration dot, waiting too long will restart the controller.
After pressing the last dot, the device returns to Main screen and the screen should be calibrated.
