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.
