Instructions for RF Comfort Control Valve
The Comfort Control Valve allows remote control of
temperature, fan and flame appearance.
NOTE: The antenna should hang in free air away from
grounded metal.
Operation
1. If the manual switch is in remote position, switch it to
LOCAL. (Fig. 53)
2. Turn the pilotstat knob counterclockwise from OFF
to the PILOT position, push the knob down, and hold
in position. The pilot valve opens and allows gas to
flow to the pilot burner.
3. Push plunger on the piezo until the pilot burner is lit.
When the pilot burner is lit, the LED on the control
will come on after approximately 40 seconds and will
provide 1 short blink continuously in the normal
mode. When the light turns off which will be approxi-
mately 10 seconds after it has been continuously
red, the receiver/valve is fully powered.
4. Release the knob. The shaft will move upward. The
pilot burner should now stay burning. If the pilot
burner goes out, repeat step 2.
5. Turn the knob counterclockwise to the ON position.
If the manual switch is in the LOCAL position, the
main burner will turn on immediately.
6. ON the initial use of a transmitter, a recognition
operation is required between the receiver/valve and
transmitter. Change the switch from LOCAL to
REMOTE. Press the fan or flame button on the
transmitter within 30 seconds. The LED will blink
indicating the transmitter will now work with the
receiver/valve. If the switch continues in the RE-
MOTE position, the transmitter will now control the
main valve, flame modulation level and fan control.
7. If the manual switch is in the LOCAL position, the
valve will be at the highest fixed pressure setting
and the fan will be at the highest fixed speed. The
transmitter will control the fan only.
Shut Off Procedure
If the manual switch is in the REMOTE position, the
transmitter can shut off the main burner and fan.
However, the control is still on and a command from the
transmitter can turn on the main burner or fan.
To shut off the system, turn the pilotstat knob clockwise
to the OFF position. This action closes the main gas
and safety valves. The transmitter cannot turn on the
main burner or fan.
Transmitter Operation
Off Mode
In the OFF mode, the fireplace flame and fan are off,
the display will show OFF and displays the room
temperature. If the receiver is in REMOTE mode, the
fireplace will shut off.
