FRBC - MILLIVOLT CONTROL SYSTEM
INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
IF YOU CANNOT READ OR UNDERSTAND THESE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS DO NOT
ATTEMPT TO INSTALL OR OPERATE
INTRODUCTION
This remote control system was developed to provide safe, reli-
able, and user-friendly remote control system for gas heating ap-
pliances.
The system can be operated manually from the transmitter. The
system operates on one of 255 security codes that are pro-
grammed into the transmitter at the factory.
The transmitter operates on a 12V battery (included) made spe-
cifically for remote controls and electronic lighters. Install the 12V
battery supplied with the unit into the battery compartment.
TRANSMITTER
Figure 46
Always use alkaline batteries. They perform better and last longer.
The transmitter has ON and OFF functions that are activated by
pressing either button on the face of the transmitter. When a but-
ton on the transmitter is pressed, a signal light on the transmitter
illuminates briefly to verify that a signal has been sent. Upon initial
use, there may be a delay of three seconds before the remote
receiver will respond to the transmitter. This is part of the system’s
design. If the signal light does not illuminate, check the position of
the transmitter’s battery.
REMOTE RECEIVER
Figure 47
The remote receiver operates on 4 AA-size 1.5V batteries. It is
recommended that ALKALINE batteries be used for longer bat-
tery life and maximum microprocessor performance. IMPORTANT:
New or fully charged batteries are essential for proper operation of
the remote receiver.
The remote receiver houses the microprocessor that responds to
commands from the transmitter to control system operation. The
remote receiver has a 3-position slide switch for selecting the
MODE of operation: ON/REMOTE/OFF
• With the slide switch in the ON position (toward the LEARN
button), the system will remain on until the slide switch is
placed in the OFF or REMOTE position.
•
With the slide switch in the REMOTE position (centered), the
system will only operate if the remote receiver receives com-
mands
from the transmitter.
• With the slide switch in the OFF position (away from the
LEARN button), the system is off.
• It is suggested that the slide switch be placed in the off
position if you will be away from your home for an ex-
tended period of time. If the remote receiver is mounted
out of children’s reach, placing the slide switch in the
OFF position also functions as a safety “lock-out” by
both turning the system off and rendering the remote re-
ceiver inoperative.
