IPI ELECTRONIC SYSTEM OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
5.25 VDC ELECTRONIC CONTROL VALVE
The electronic control valve system includes the ability to switch
the pilot from a standing pilot mode to an intermittent pilot mode.
•
IPI Mode
- In the Intermittent Pilot mode, when the unit is
turned ON, it will cause spark to the pilot, light the pilot,
then allow the burner to light. When the unit is turned to
OFF, both the burner and pilot will be OFF.
•
CPI Mode
- In the Continuess Pilot mode, the pilot re-
mains ON continuously even when the burner is turned
OFF.
Note: A small toggle switch is located on the front of the module
tray that is used to switch from IPI (left) to the CPI (right).
When the unit is turned to ON, the electrical current will energize
a spark to the pilot igniter. Once the pilot sensor heats up (after a
few seconds), the valve will be energized, allowing gas to flow to
the burner.
1. Follow the SAFETY and LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS for In-
termittent Pilot controls found in this manual, and on labels
found in the control compartment located in the lower cavity
of the appliance.
2. During the operating season (or in power outage periods), it is
recommended that the pilot remain in the CPI (standing pilot
mode) to reduce cold start issues, and/or conserve battery
backup power during a power outage.
3. The gas valve has inlet and outlet pressure taps. Refer to
page 12 for gas pressure requirements.
Note:
The gas control has a manual HI/LO flame adjustment
knob (regulator) that allows you to increase or decrease
the height of the burner flame. Rotate the HI/LO knob
counterclockwise to “HI” to increase the flame height,
and clockwise to “LO” to decrease the flame height.
OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROLS
Optional remote controls are available for use with this appliance.
It is recommended that the remote receiver be placed either in a
wall outlet box with extended wiring, on the fireplace hearth, be
-
hind the left side surround panel, or in the control compartment
area as far forward in the insert as possible.
The placement options for the remote receiver are given to allow
flexibility, however battery life will be extended when the receiver
is placed in cooler areas.
To connect the remote receiver to the appliance, first disconnect
the ON/OFF switch wires from the white and green wire connec-
tors and connect the wires from the remote receiver to the green
and white wire connectors.
Follow the instructions included with the remote control for pro-
gramming and other operational information.
