SYSTEM CHECK
MILLIVOLT VALVES
Light the gas appliance following the lighting instructions that came with the appliance. Conrm that the pilot ame is ON;
and the control knob on the gas valve is in the ON position for the main gas valve to operate.
• Slide the 3-position button on the remote receiver to the ON position (Fig. 16). The main gas ame (re) should light.
• Slide the button to OFF. The ame should extinguish (the pilot ame will remain ON).
• Slide the button to REMOTE (the center position), and then press the MODE button on the transmitter to change
the system to ON. The main gas ame should ignite.
• Press the MODE button on the transmitter to change the system to OFF. The ame should extinguish (the pilot
ame will remain on).
• Press the MODE button on the transmitter to change the system to THERMO. Advance the SET temperature on the
transmitter to a temperature of a least 2°F (1°C) above the ROOM temperature displayed on the LCD screen. With this
manual setting, the normal thermostatic cycle is overridden and the system ame will ignite. Place the SET temperature
to at least 2°F (1°C) below the room temperature and the system ame will extinguish in a few seconds. Thereafter, it
should continue to cycle on and off thermostatically approximately every two minutes as the ROOM temperature changes,
but only when the temperature differential between ROOM and SET temperatures differ at least 2°F (1°C). (The 2°F
differential is the factory setting.)
ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEMS
• Slide the 3-position button on the remote receiver to the ON position. The spark electrode should begin sparking to
ignite the pilot (the pilot may ignite after only one spark). After the pilot ame is lit, the main gas valve should open and
the main gas ame should ignite.
• Slide the button to OFF. The main gas ame and pilot ame should BOTH extinguish.
• Slide the button to REMOTE (the center position), and then press the MODE button on the transmitter to change the
system to ON. The spark electrode should begin sparking to ignite the pilot. After the pilot is lit, the main gas valve
should open and the main gas ame should ignite.
• Press the MODE button on the transmitter to OFF. The main gas ame and pilot ame should BOTH extinguish.
• Press the MODE button on the transmitter to change the system to THERMO. Advance the SET temperature on the
transmitter to a temperature at least 2°F (1°C) above the ROOM temperature displayed on the LCD screen. With this
manual setting the normal thermostatic cycle is overridden and the system ame will ignite. Place the SET temperature at
least 2°F (1°C) below the room temperature and the system ame will extinguish in a few seconds. Thereafter, it should
continue to cycle ON and OFF thermostatically approximately every two minutes as the ROOM temperature changes, but
only when the temperature differential between ROOM and SET temperatures differ at least 2°F (1°C). (The 2°F
differential is the factory setting.)
GENERAL INFORMATION
REMOTE RECEIVER
The remote receiver houses the microprocessor that responds to commands from the transmitter to control the system
operation. It emits one beep when it receives an ON or OFF command manually, but no beep when cycling ON and OFF
automatically in THERMO mode. The remote receiver has a 3-position slide switch for selecting the MODE of operation:
ON/REMOTE/OFF
• With the slide switch in the ON position, the system will remain ON “manually” until the slide switch is placed in the OFF
or REMOTE position.
• With the slide switch in the REMOTE position (centered), the system will only operate if the remote receiver receives
commands from the transmitter.
• With the slide switch in the OFF position, the system is OFF.
• It is suggested that the slide switch be placed in the off position if you will be away from your home for an extended
period of time. If the remote receiver is mounted out of children’s reach, placing the slide switch in the OFF position
also functions as a safety “lock-out” by both turning the system off and rendering the remote receiver inoperative.
