Dixell XW60K

DIN-rail power module with a separate keypad for cool rooms. Runs compressor, defrost, evaporator fans and a light or auxiliary relay from up to four probes.

What it is: Cool room controller with remote keypad. Works with the T620, T620T, V620 and CX620 keypads.

Key combo: Hold SET + DOWN for 3 s for the user level. Hold SET + DOWN again for over 7 s for the hidden menu (Pr2).

Dixell XW60K error codes

CodeMeaningLikely causeHow to reset
P1Room (thermostat) probe faultProbe open, shorted, unplugged or wrong type (PbC)Clears by itself a few seconds after the probe reads normally. Check wiring and PbC before replacing the probe. Compressor cycles on the COn / COF times meanwhile.
P2Evaporator probe faultProbe open, shorted, unplugged or wrong type (PbC)Clears by itself a few seconds after the probe reads normally. Check wiring and PbC before replacing the probe. Defrost ends on time (MdF) meanwhile.
P3Third probe faultProbe open, shorted, unplugged or wrong type (PbC)Clears by itself a few seconds after the probe reads normally. Check wiring and PbC before replacing the probe. Outputs carry on as normal.
P4Fourth (condenser / Hot Key socket) probe faultProbe open, shorted, unplugged or wrong type (PbC)Clears by itself a few seconds after the probe reads normally. Check wiring and PbC before replacing the probe. Outputs carry on as normal.
HAHigh temperature alarmRoom probe above ALU for longer than ALdClears by itself once back inside the limit. Outputs unchanged.
LALow temperature alarmRoom probe below ALL for longer than ALdClears by itself once back inside the limit. Outputs unchanged.
HA2Condenser high temperatureCondenser probe above AU2 (dirty condenser, fan fault)Clears when the temperature drops. Compressor stops only if AC2 = y.
LA2Condenser low temperatureCondenser probe below AL2Clears when the temperature rises. Compressor stops only if bLL = y.
dADoor open alarm (i1F = dor)Door switch open longer than didClears when the door closes. Compressor and fans restart.
EAExternal alarm (i1F = EAL)Digital input active longer than didClears when the input goes back to normal. Outputs unchanged.
CASerious external alarm (i1F = bAL)Digital input activeAll outputs off. Clears when the input goes back to normal.
CAPressure switch alarm (i1F = PAL)Pressure switch tripped nPS times within didAll outputs off. Power the controller off and on to reset.
EEMemory faultInternal data check failedPress any key: rSt shows for about 3 s and normal running resumes. If it returns, replace the controller.

How to enter service / parameter mode

  1. Hold SET and DOWN together for 3 seconds. The °C or °F light flashes: you are in the user level (Pr1).
  2. Let go, then hold SET and DOWN again for more than 7 seconds. Pr2 shows, then Hy. You are now in the hidden menu with every parameter.
  3. If the user level is empty, noP shows first. Keep holding until Pr2 appears.

How to change and save a setting

  1. Scroll with UP or DOWN to the parameter code.
  2. Press SET to show its value.
  3. Change it with UP or DOWN.
  4. Press SET to store it and move to the next parameter.
  5. To leave, press SET + UP or wait about 15 seconds. Values are kept either way.
