 "summary": "Apex boilers with the Panasonic display and 4109 software are read over Modbus RTU by the Thermal Solutions Universal Gateway (a ProtoNode) and served as BACnet IP or BACnet MS/TP devices. The 28-object profile has a burner on/off command, writable CH, DHW, lead lag and CH time-of-day setpoints, setpoint sources, sensor temperatures, burner state, lockout and hold codes, and cycle counters.",

 "notes": [
  "The Universal Gateway is a ProtoNode (BACnet RER FPC-N34-0816, LonWorks LER FPC-N35-0817) that auto-discovers up to 8 boilers on its Modbus RS-485 port.",
  "Every boiler is its own BACnet device with the same object list; the instances here are for one boiler.",
  "Power all boilers and connect them before running auto-discovery; a boiler added later is not found until discovery is run again.",
  "All writable values on this control are stored in EEPROM; write only when a value has to change, never cyclically.",
  "Check the software version with the i button on the home screen: 4716 software uses a different list."

  "summary": "Give each Apex a unique Boiler Address (Adjust > Sequencer Slave), disable Sequencer Master on every boiler, wire the RJ45 boiler-to-boiler port to the gateway, run auto-discovery, then use BV 1 Burner On Off and AV 3 CH Setpoint. Values go to EEPROM, so write them only when they change.",

  "enable": "BV 1 Burner On Off enables or disables the burner. If only BV 1 is used instead of the boiler's Enable/Disable contact, the boiler stops but the system pump may keep running. For lead/lag, Enable/Disable and the remote firing rate (4-20 mA) must be hard-wired to each boiler, and the Sequencer must be disabled (no master boiler) while the EMS is connected.",
  "heartbeat": null,
  "remote_sensors": "When the BMS writes AV 3 CH Setpoint it takes over the boiler's CH setpoint, so disable the boiler's outdoor air reset. There is no writable outdoor or header temperature input.",
  "setup": [
   "BACnet IP and MS/TP multiple node: each boiler is its own device, instance = Node_Offset (default 50,000) + boiler Modbus address, so address 1 = 50001.",
   "BACnet MS/TP single node (for front ends without virtual-node support): one device at Node_Offset + MAC, with boiler objects renumbered 1001, 1002... for address 1, 2001... for address 2.",
   "S-bank DIP switches pick the protocol (S0-S2 all Off = BACnet IP, S0 On = MS/TP multiple node, S2 On = MS/TP single node); S3 On at power-up runs auto-discovery (about 3 minutes), then set S3 Off to keep the configuration.",
   "MS/TP MAC address 1-127 on A-bank DIP switches (one MAC for the whole gateway); baud rate on B-bank switches.",
   "Change the IP address and Node_Offset in the ProtoNode web configurator (default IP 192.168.1.24).",
   "Apex with Panasonic GT02: set a unique Boiler Address under Adjust > Sequencer Slave and disable Sequencer Master on all boilers."

   "All writable parameters live in EEPROM: avoid repeated or cyclic writes.",
   "Disable outdoor air reset on the boiler when the BMS writes the CH setpoint.",
   "Boiler sequencing (lead/lag) must be done outside the boiler controls when the EMS is connected."
