Adjusting the Flame Height -

Operates in ON or THERMO mode

This remote control system allows the user to control the

height of the FLAME when the gas valve is factory equipped

with a FLAME CONTROLLER.

1. Press and release FLAME button to change ﬂ ame height

to HI (see Figure 8, Location #5), (a second ﬂ ame icon

appears).

2. Press again to return ﬂ ame to normal state.

Low/Battery Indicator

An “X” outlined by a battery on the right side of the LCD

screen will appear when battery power has dropped sig-

niﬁ cantly. At this time, approximately two weeks of battery

power remains.

Child Proof Lockout (CP)

The transmitter contains a “Child Proof” lockout feature that

prevents unauthorized use of the remote control. To access

the “Child Proof” activation button, remove cover on BACK

of transmitter. To activate LOCKOUT:

1. Press and hold in the “setting button” for 5 seconds. The

letters CP will display on the LCD screen (see Figure

8). This prevents the activation of ﬁ replace. When any

function button is pressed ON/OFF etc. the letter CP

will display on the LCD screen.

To deactivate LOCKOUT:

1. Press and hold in the “setting button” for 5 seconds. The

LCD will display CP until 5 seconds have elapsed, and

then the LCD screen will return to its normal state.

TRANSMITTER SAFETY FEATURES

It is recommended that the TRANSMITTERS always be

located within a 20 foot operating range of the ﬁ replace,

preferably in the same room in which the ﬁ replace system

is located. The TRANSMITTER features several safety

features that alert the user when the TRANSMITTER is

placed outside the 20 foot normal operating range.

Thermo-Updating and Communication-Safety Fea-

tures

This remote control has a COMMUNICATION-SAFETY

function built into its software. It provides an extra margin

of safety when the TRANSMITTER is out of the normal

20 foot operating range of the receiver. It is also activated

when the batteries become weak or are removed from the

transmitter.

In the THERMO-UPDATING feature (only in the THERMO

or TIMER modes) the transmitter normally reads the ROOM

temperature every 2 minutes. In addition to checking the

temperature, the transmitter sends a signal to the receiver in-

dicating that the transmitter and its batteries are still active.

In the COMMUNICATION-SAFETY feature, at all times

and in all OPERATING MODES the transmitter sends a

signal every ﬁ fteen (15) minutes to the receiver, indicating

that the transmitter is within the normal operating range

of 20 feet.

SYSTEM CHECK

Millivolt Valves

Light the appliance following the lighting instructions that

came with the ﬁ replace. Conﬁ rm that the pilot ﬂ ame is on.

It must be in operation for the main gas valve to operate.

1. Slide the 3-position button on the remote receiver to the

ON position. The main gas ﬂ ame (i.e., the ﬁ re) should

ignite.

2. Slide the button to OFF. The ﬂ ame should extinguish

(the pilot ﬂ ame will remain on).

3. Slide the button to REMOTE (the center position), then

press the MODE button on the transmitter to change

the system to ON. The main gas ﬂ ame should ignite.

4. Press the MODE button on the transmitter to change

the system to OFF. The ﬂ ame should extinguish (the

pilot ﬂ ame will remain on).

5. Press the MODE button on the transmitter to change

the system to THERMO.

6. Advance the SET temperature on the transmitter to a

temperature of at least 2º F (1º C) above the ROOM

temperature displayed on the LCD screen and the

system ﬂ ame will ignite.

Should the receiver NOT receive a transmitter signal every

15 minutes (COMMUNICATION-SAFETY feature), the RE-

CEIVER will begin a 2 HOUR (120 minute) countdown tim-

ing function. If during this 2 hour period, the receiver does

not receive a signal from the transmitter, the RECEIVER

will shut down the ﬁ replace being controlled by the receiver.

The RECEIVER will then emit a series of rapid “beeps”.

Then, after 10 rapid “beeps”, the RECEIVER will continue

to emit a single “beep” every 4 seconds until a transmitter

signal is again received. The intermittent 4 second beeping

will go on indeﬁ nitely until reset.

To “reset” the RECEIVER and operate the ﬁ replace system:

1. Press the MODE button on the transmitter. The word

ON must display on the LCD screen. The COMMUNICA-

TION -SAFETY operation is overridden and the system

will return to normal operation depending on the MODE

selected at the transmitter.

We recommend the user check the batteries in the

TRANSMITTER to make sure the voltage is no less than

2.7 volts.

Auto Shutdown

This remote control has an Auto Shutdown feature incor-

porated into its system. When the transmitter MODE is

in the ON position the ﬁ replace will continuously operate

for 9 hours. After 9 hours, the ﬁ replace will shut down. To

relight the ﬁ replace:

1. Press the MODE button. The ﬁ replace will operate

continuously for up to 9 hours before Auto Shutdown

repeats cycle. The Auto Shutdown signal comes from

the transmitter. The transmitter must be positioned

within a 20 foot operating range for the Auto Shutdown

feature to operate.
