INTRODUCTION 

Note to Reader: This manual is to be used as an aid to assist in the commissioning of the SYX660, SYX661, SYX662, 
SYX663 and SYX664 Controllers from SyxthSense. The SYX66x range of controllers have identical functionality 
apart from the sensor types they work with. For the purposes of efficiency this one guide reflect all the above 
controller types and to help reduce repetition the controller is hereon referred to as SYX66x.  

The SYX66x is a simple controller which is designed to suit the control needs of 

today’s smaller commercial and larger 

domestic properties. It can be configured control one, two or multiple boilers (via 0-10v sequencer), or provide burner 
modulation. Valve and/or Boilers can be compensated. Plant control options are with optimum start/stop, direct boiler, 
direct valve or boiler and valve compensation. The heating circuit is easily configured for constant temperature as 
required by adjustment of the heating curve. 

 

A separate timed output channel is provided for the provision of hot water, the HWS relay option is required for this 
output. The HWS control routines can be used independently or combined with the boilers. If combined with the boilers 
then the option of boiler heat demand by the Hot Water is provided by an optional auxiliary digital input, this increases 
energy savings. 

 

Fast installation and operation are key features of the SYX66x.  The controller has a base application that is adjusted 
during the commissioning phase by simple parameter choices. The use of practical default settings means that the 
system is ready to control  a radiator system  with minimal adjustments.  Additional self-adapting features adjust the 
control settings to the buildings performance.  

 

An override menu (Panel Switch) allows you to override the control mode without the need to change any settings. If set 
point and  time  settings  of  the  unit  is required  these  can  be  made  using  either  the  inbuilt  display,  optional  remote 
colour touchscreen, or the in-built web browser that is compatible with any Laptop or Smart Device. 

 

The info button provides direct access to visual indication of all input and output status.  

The Malfunction button allows the alarms to be seen and actioned 

There is a user button to quickly acknowledge and clear Alarms 

 

The simple user screen is text based using simple language and is backlit for easy use in poor plant room lighting. 

 

The internal  web browser  allows local site and remote site monitoring/supervision. Users can interrogate  relevant 
parameters with 3 distinct user levels. Access levels are changed by entering the correct code between: Information 
Level (default), Change Level, Set-up level. 

 

Historical  records  of  temperature  are  taken  at  regular  intervals  and  sensor  are  monitored  for  their  operational 
condition.  Performance  can  be  assessed  and  savings  increased  through  better  information  and  analysis.  Simple 
configuration and simple use are key features of the SYX66x.
