Flip down the plastic cover on the front of the transmitter to expose the “SET” buttons. The flip cover
protects the SET buttons from being changed accidentally. Close the cover after completing the
following settings/programming.
Flashing numbers on the display indicate the system is awaiting user input, such as using the UP and
DOWN buttons to program a new setting. If no change is made to flashing digits within 15 seconds,
the system will complete the procedure last programmed and reset the display to its normal state.
1. Press and hold the TIMER/TIME button on the transmitter for more than two seconds. The
hour digit(s) will begin flashing.
2. Press the UP or DOWN button until the desired hour is displayed in AM or PM.
3. After setting the desired hour, press and release the TIMER/TIME button again to set the
minutes; the minute digits will begin flashing.
4. Press the UP or DOWN button until the desired minutes are displayed.
5. Press and hold the TIMER/TIME button again for more than two seconds. The time digits
will cease flashing, indicating the clock has been successfully set. You may also press the
SET button on the transmitter to stop the time digits from flashing and set the time.
SETTING
0
F /
0
C SCALE
The factory setting for temperature is
0
F
. To change this setting to
0
C, first press and hold the UP button and the DOWN button on the
transmitter at the same time. Follow this same procedure to change from
0
C back to
0
F
. When changing between the
0
F
and
0
C scales, the
temperature in the SET frame defaults to the lowest temperature (45
0
F
, or 6
0
C
). The highest SET temperature is 99
0
Fahrenheit
(32
0
Celsius
).
SETTING DESIRED ROOM TEMPERATURE
This remote control system can be thermostatically controlled when the transmitter is in the THERMO mode
(
THERMO must be displayed on the screen).
To set the DESI RED room temperature, press the MODE
button to place the transmitter into THERMO mode, then press the UP or DOWN button to select the desired
room temperature. The highest SET temperature is 99
0
Fahrenheit
(32
0
Celsius
).
OPERATIONAL NOTE: TO CONSERVE BATTERY POWER, CHANGES IN ROOM TEMPERATURE ARE
AUTOMATICALLY UPDATED EVERY TWO MINUTES TO THE TRANSMITTER.
The Thermo Mode on the transmitter operates the appliance whenever the ROOM TEMPERATURE varies a
certain number of degrees from the SET TEMPERATURE. This variation is called the “SWING” or
TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIAL. The normal operating cycle of an appliance may be 2 -4 times per hour
depending on how well the room or home is insulated from the cold or drafts. A smaller “swing number” increases the number of cycles so the
room temperature is more constant. A larger “swing number” decreases the number of cycles, which saves energy, in most cases. The
factory setting for the “swing number” is 2. This represents a temperature variation of +/- 2
0
F
(1
0
C)
between SET temperature and ROOM
temperature, which determines when the fireplace will be activated. The “SWING” number values are:
1=+ 1
0
F (.5
0
C), 2= + 2
0
F (1
0
C) and 3 = + 3
0
F (1.6
0
C).
SETTING THE TEMPERATURE SWING (TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIAL)
1. To change the temperature “SWING” setting (1-3), press the TIMER/TIME and DOWN buttons
simultaneously to display the current “SWING” setting in the SET TEMP frame. The letter “S” will
display in the ROOM TEMP frame on the LCD screen.
2. Press the UP or DOWN button to change the temperature differential or “SWING” (1-3). See above for 1-3
“SWING” temperature valves.
