Installation and Operation Manual
Section 7. Operating Instructions
7.1
Normal Operation
The LXi heater is capable of automatic opera-
tion based on a call for heat at preset temperatures and
an operator selection between pool or spa settings.
Additionally, the heater may be controlled by a remote
unit to anticipate bather load, changes in temperature
settings, or a variety of other demands that might be
encountered. The heater has an internal safety system
which allows operation in a variety of conditions and
prevents operation when certain adverse conditions are
encountered. The heater is capable of diagnosing prob-
lems within the safety controls scheme, enabling faster
service and less down time in the event of a failure.
When the heater is powered, water is flowing
through the heater, and the temperature of the water
entering the heater is below the temperature control
setting, an operating cycle is initiated by the automatic
control. The combustion blower is started. If the blow-
er pressure switch senses adequate airflow, the ignition
sequence starts. First, a 15 second pre-purge takes
place. Next, the igniter is energized. After 40 seconds
of igniter heat-up time the gas valve is opened (ap-
proximately 1 minute after the call for heat). If flame is
sensed at the burner within 7 seconds, operation con-
tinues. Operation will continue until the temperature of
the water entering the heater reaches the temperature
control setting.
If ignition is unsuccessful, or if the flame fails
during normal operation, the ignition control shuts off
the gas valve. It imposes a post purge, initiates ad-
ditional ignition cycles, and shuts down the system
if ignition is not achieved in three (3) cycles. After 1
hour, the system will restart and try again.
To reset the LXi heater to provide three (3) ad-
ditional attempts without waiting an hour, turn off the
control and then put it back in either the Pool or Spa
mode.

Start-Up
WARNING
For your safety, when starting the heater, keep your
head and face well away from the burner area to
prevent any risk of personal injury.
AVERTISSEMENT
Pour votre sécurité personnelle lorsque vous mettez
l’appareil en marche, tenez votre tête et votre vis-
age loin du brûleur pour éviter tout risque de bles-
sure.
NOTE
If you need to install more than two (2) wires
in each terminal, order a Zodiac Multiplex PCB
Kit, which includes the Multiplex Board (Zodiac
part # 6584). Never put more than two (2)
wires into each of the pins of the terminal bar.
5. Check all wiring, then apply power to both the
heater and the RS control system. Operation can
be verified in either Service or Auto mode. See
your RS Control System manual for instructions
about operation.
When the LXi heater is first powered on and
there is an RS control connected to the heater, the
display on the heater control will show
"ZODIAC RE-
MOTE ONLINE PUSH MENU TO DISABLE"
.
When the LXi heater is online with the RS
control, all functionality of the control on the heater is
disabled. The heater functions can be controlled only
at the RS unit.
To temporarily use the heater controls, press the
MENU
button. The message "
ZODIAC REMOTE
ONLINE PUSH MENU TO DISABLE
" will disappear
from the heater display. All functionality has now been
returned to the control on the heater. In this mode the
RS unit is no longer controlling the heater.
To return the functionality to the RS unit, cycle
(turn off and then turn on) the power to the heater, or
press the
MENU
button for 5 seconds to enter the User
Setup Mode and then enable the Zodiac Remote.
6.5.3 Connection to a Secondary
User Interface
The LXi pool/spa heater can also be controlled
remotely by installing a second wall mountable User
Interface. Please order Zodiac part number R0467500.
This kit contains the second User Interface, wall
mounting backplate, and necessary hardware.
WARNING
To prevent an unsafe condition which can result in
property damage, severe injury, or death, do not
disable or remove the control from the heater.
AVERTISSEMENT
Pour prévenir une condition dangereuse qui peut
entraîner des dommages matériels, des blessures
graves, voire la mort, ne désactivez pas ou ne re-
tirez pas la commande de l'appareil de chauffage.
