Optional DC Remote Systems

These instructions supersede the section entitled “Hearth Mount” in the Millivolt hand held remote instructions supplied with the remote.

NOTE

Remote receiver must be mounted outside the appliance, due to high temperatures inside the chamber. This

will prevent failures and longer battery life.

1.Plug in the remote connector wire to the remote receiver.

2.Mount remote control receiver at junction box (for your wall switch)

3.Connect the _” female connector to the valve TPTH and TH terminal.

Millivolt Control Valve Checklist:

The millivolt (thermopile) control is a self-powered combustion gas control. Refer to Figure 13: Wiring Diagram for Standing Pilot - Millivolt System. The millivolt system and individual components may be checked with a millivolt meter having 1-1000 mV range. Conduct each check listed below by connecting the meter test leads to the terminals indicated. Refer to OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS for safety and lighting instructions.

Thermopile Output Check

Pilot must be lit and the valve control knob turned to the “PILOT” or “ON” position. “RS-ON-OFF” switch must be in the “OFF” position. Meter leads must be connected to the TP and the TH/TP terminals on the control valve. If the meter reading is not 500-millivolt minimum, then readjust pilot for maximum millivolt output. If millivolt reading is still below minimum specified, check wire connection and then replace the thermopile.

Complete Millivolt System Check

Pilot must be lit and the valve control knob turned to the “ON” position. Meter leads must be connected to the TP and the TH/TP terminals on the control valve.
