OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (CONT)

STANDING PILOT OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

The fireplace is equipped with a 15 foot length of wire that can be used to connect the valve to a wall switch (installer provided) or remote control receiver.

See instructions packed with each of the following optional switches or controls for proper installation, operation, and maintenance.

Wall Switch, FWS-1 (optional)

On millivolt valve models, a 15' wall switch wire is included. Connect the two leads to a wall switch (installer supplied). See Figure 23.

FRBC Battery Operated Remote Control

To connect the FRBC remote to the millivolt gas valve on your "B-Vent" Fireplace, disconnect one wire terminal lead (wall switch wire) from gas valve, seperate/split wall switch wire lead approximately 18 inches. Cut the removed lead 12 inches long and strip both cut ends. After stripping and baring the wire ends, connect the two stripped ends to the remote receiver. Reconnect the 1/4" insulated wire terminal (short 18" wire) to the gas valve wire terminal. See Figure 23.

Millivolt Control

The valve regulator controls the burner pressure which should be checked at the pressure test point. Turn captured screw counter clockwise 2 or 3 turns and then place tubing to pressure gauge over test point (Use test point “A” closest to control knob). After taking pressure reading, be sure and turn captured screw clockwise firmly to re-seal. Do not over torque. Check for gas leaks.

Millivolt thermopile is self generating. Gas valve does not require 24 volts or 110 volts.

Check System Operation

Millivolt system and all individual components may be checked with a millivolt meter 0-1000 MV range.

It is important to use wire of a gauge proper for the length of the wire:

Electric (120 volt) Operated Remote Control, FREC

CAUTION: Disconnect all electrical supply to the fireplace prior to installing the remote control optional equipment.

Installation of the 120 Volt Receiver

Note: If you have a louvered model fireplace and will be installing the blower option, the fireplace junction box receptacle should be wired in accordance with Figure 28 for proper independent operation of the FREC remote and the optional FBB4 Blower kit.

To connect the FREC Remote to the millivolt gas valve on your "B"-Vent fireplace, disconnect both of the insulated wall switch wire terminal leads from the gas valve and discard the wall switch wire. Connect the two wire leads from the FREC receiver to the TH and TH/TP terminals on the gas valve.

Next, attach the short power cord to the remote receiver, then plug the power cord into the junction box receptacle located at the bottom right side of the fireplace.

The remote receiver should be located on the floor of the fireplace to the right of the gas valve.

Attention: The Velcro loop and hook are not necessary in this installation but can be used to secure remote receiver.

Refer to remote control installation and operating instructions for more details on remote control.
