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. 65)

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.

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.
