7 Programming of DixellControllers. It is not designed to totally replace the manufacturer s manual, but rather tocompliment it. Please refer to the manufacturer s manual when in any complete range of Dixell Controllers is extremely large, so only the popular models arecovered here. However, the method of programming any Dixell controller is very similar acrossall the numbers ending with C are 32 x 74mm panel mount numbers ending with D are DIN Rail mount = RefrigerationModels beginning with XR are multi-function refrigeration controllers, most have defrostinterval timers, but some have Real Time Clocks for defrost.

8 Dixell XR100 & 500 Series alwaysuse PTC probes, Dixell Prime Series can use either PTC or NTC (selectable by parameter)XT = TemperatureModels beginning with XT are for heating or cooling applications and can be programmed foreither function. XT120C & XT121C are two stage, but can be programmed to operate as DeadBand controllers. XT130 & XT131C are Dead Band only controllers. XT models can accept arange of probes but the type must be specified at time of order. They are most commonly, PTC,Thermocouples K, J, S, Pt100, Ni100. Other input types are 0 to 1v, 0 to 10v and 4 to = Step ControlModels beginning with XC are step controllers.

9 They can be used to control multiple stages,compressors, condenser fans, heaters or pumps. They can work with a 4 to 20 mA input from apressure transducer or an input from a PTC temperature probe. This input type must be specifiedat time of 7 -General InformationSafetyEnsure that the controllers are installed in such a way so as to comply with all relevant regulations and withthe manufacturer s instructions. Consult manufacturer s manual before carrying out any installation ormaintenance procedure. Caution: Electrical shock can kill. Good Practice should at all times be interference and extension of probe cablesIt is important to avoid running probe cables close to power cables or other electrical equipment and cablesthat carry or switch heavy loads.

10 This is even more important when extending probe cables. Whenextending probe cables use cable Part CON490 (100 metre roll ) & CON491 ( 25 metre roll ) Ifextending beyond the normal maximum of 50 metres, please consult our technical resistances at degrees C-30c-20c-10c0c+10c+20cPTCOhms6176777408 07877951 NTCOhms x 10001157042271812 Power supply interruptionDixell controllers store parameter settings in Non Volatile memory, so they will maintain those settingsindefinitely even when disconnected from the power with Real Time Clocks (RTC) will maintain the correct day / time settings for approximately 7hours (display will be off).
