C.1 WALL INSTALLATION
C. Installaon
CAUTION
Install the controller only
in dry areas and under
the ambient condions
described under B.1
“Specicaons”.
CAUTION
Controller must be inac-
cessible from the rear.
1. Unscrew cover screw completely.
2. Remove Terminal connecon cover. Unscrew the 2 small screws le and right and remove the
upper part of the controller by liing it out of the socket.
3. Mark the 3 mounng holes on the wall (see „C.1.1. Socket“). Make sure that the wall surface is
even so that the housing does not become distorted when it is screwed on.
4. Using a drill and size 6 bit, drill 3 holes at the points marked on the wall and push in the plugs.
5. Hang the controller on the upper screw.
6. Align the housing and ghten the lower screws.

C.2 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
DANGER
Before working on the unit, switch o the power supply and secure it against being switched on again! Check for the absence of
power!
Electrical connecons may only be made by a specialist and in compliance with the applicable regulaons. Do not use the control-
ler if the housing shows visible damage.
CAUTION
The cables being connected to the unit must not be stripped by more than 55mm, and the cable jacket must each into the housing
just to the other side of the strain relief.
CAUTION
Controller and VFS sensor have to have the same ground potenal. The VFS sensor has a funconal earth connector (PELV). The
PE-connector of the controller has to be connected to the pipe system near the sensor.
CAUTION
Low-voltage cables such as temperature sensor cables must be routed separately from mains voltage cables. Feed temperature
sensor cables only into the le-hand side of the unit, and mains voltage cables only into the right-hand side.
CAUTION
The customer must provide an all-pole disconnecng device, e.g. a heang emergency switch.

1. Select necessary program/hydraulics (s. „D.3. - Hydraulic variants / Schemes / Sys-
tems“ on page 11)
2. Remove terminal connecon cover (s. „D.2. - Terminal connecon diagram“ on page
10)
3. Strip cables by 55mmmax., insert,  t the strain relief devices, strip the last 8-9mm of
the wires (Fig. „C.2.1.“)
4. Open the terminals using a suitable screwdriver (Fig.„C.2.2.“) and make electrical con-
necons on the controller
5. Re t terminal connecon cover and fasten screw.
6. Switch on mains voltage and place controller in operaon.
C.2.1
C.2.2 Instrucons for clamps:
1. Insert screw driver into the upper hole. Push the lock clamp inside down. Keep the
screw driver in this posion.
2. Insert cable into the lower opening.
3. Remove screw driver. The clamp will lock the cable.
C.3 INSTALLING THE TEMPERATURE SENSORS
The controller operates with Pt1000 temperature sensors which are accurate to the degree, thus ensuring opmal control of system funcons.
CAUTION
The temperature sensor cables must be routed separately from mains voltage cables, and must not, for example, be routed in the
same cable duct!
CAUTION
If desired the sensor cables can be extended to a maximum of 30m using a cable with a cross-secon of at least 0.75mm². Make
sure that there is no contact resistance!
Posion the sensor precisely in the area to be measured! Only use immersion, pipe-mounted or  at-mounted sensor suitable for
the speci c area of applicaon with the appropriate permissible temperature range.
CAUTION
Connect the VFS sensors with the matching jacks. To prevent damage to the Direct Sensors it is highly recommended to install
them in to the return. When installing the Vortex Flow Sensors (VFS), observe the correct  ow direcon!

C.4 RC 21 REMOTE ADJUSTER WITH THERMOSTAT
The remote adjuster with integrated thermostat RC21 provides you with easy to use temperature controlled adjustment of heang from within your
living space.
Sengs
The dial is used to parallel translate the heang curve. The  ow temperature (sll regarding the outdoor temperature) is raised or lowered respec-
vely by your adjustement by max. 5°.
Sensor
The RC21 contains a temperature sensor which is used by the controller. If the sengs in the controller allow it, the sensor is used to alter the  ow
temperature.
The switch changes the operaon mode of the controller.
In Timer mode the temperature is controlled according to the set thermostat periods.
In Connous day mode the set periods are ignored and the temperature is controlled according to the Day me sengs.
In Connous night mode the temperature is usually set to lowest. This seng is best suited for periods of long absence like e.g. holidays.
Installaon
Carefully remove the dial from the casing with a screwdriver.
Loosen the screw beneath. Remove the bright part of the casing from the black socket.
The RC21 is connected via terminal block to the controller.
Clamp connecons:
1: Remote adjuster
2: Sensor
3: Sensor earth
CAUTION
The RC21 is an oponal accessory and is not supplied by default.
The PRO-XL6D is fully funconal without RC21

E.1 DISPLAY AND INPUT
E. Operaon
The display (1), with its extensive text and graphics mode, is almost self-explanatory, allowing easy
operaon of the controller.
To change from the overview to the sengs menu, press the „esc“ key. The green status LED (2)
lights up when a relay is acve, the red LED blinks when an error occurs.
Inputs are made with 4 buons (3+4), which funcons change context sensive. The „esc“ key (3) is
always used to cancel or exit a menu.
If applicable there will be a request for conrmaon as to whether the changes which have been
made should be saved.
The funcon of each of the other three keys (4) is shown in the display line directly above the keys;
the right-hand key is generally has a con rmaon and selecon funcon.
Examples of key funcons:
+/- = enlarge/shrink values
▼/▼ = scroll menu down/up
yes/no = approve/reject
Info = addional informaon
Back = to previous screen
ok = con rm selecon
Conrm = conrm seng
Examples of display symbols:
Pump (rotates in operaon)
Valve (direcon of  ow in black)

E.2 COMMISSIONING HELP
The  rst me the controller is turned on and aer the language and me are set, a query appears as to whether you want to parametrise the
controller using the commissioning help or not. The commissioning help can also be terminated or called up again at any me in the special func-
ons menu. The commissioning help guides you through the necessary basic sengs in the correct order, and provides brief descripons of each
parameter in the display.
Pressing the “esc” key takes you back to the previous value so you can look at the selected seng again or adjust it if desired. Pressing the “esc“
more than once takes you back step by step to the selecon mode, thus cancelling the commissioning help. Finally, menu „3.2. - Manual“ on page
22 should be used to test the switch outputs with the consumers connected, and to check the sensor values for plausibility. Then switch on auto-
mac mode.
CAUTION
Observe the explanaons for the the individual parameters on the following pages, and check whether further sengs are
necessary for your applicaon.

Finally, menu „3.2. - Manual“ on page 22 should be used to test the switch outputs with the consumers connected, and to check the sensor values
for plausibility. Then switch on automac mode.
E.4 MAIN SEQUENCE AND MENU STRUCTURE
The graphics or overview mode appears when no key has been press for 2 minutes, or when the
main menu is exited by pressing “esc“.
The up and down buons are used to scroll through the list of sensors and relays
You can enter the Main menu by pressing the „esc“ key. The following menus are
available:
1. Measurements Current temperature values with explanations
2. Statistics Function control of the system with operating hours, etc
3. Operating Mode Automatic mode, manual mode or switch unit off
4. Settings Set parameters needed for normal operation
5. Protections Solar and frost protection, recooling, anti-seizing protection
