Figure 2.3  Control Module

J.  Control Module Operation

1.  The control module has an ON/OFF/REMOTE selector 

switch that must be set.  See Figure 2.3. 

 

OFF Position:  Appliance will ignore all power inputs and 
will not respond to any commands from a wall switch or 
remote.  The unit should be in the OFF position during 
installation, service, battery installation, fuel conversion, 
and in the event that the control goes into LOCK-OUT 
mode as a result of an error code. 

 

ON Position:  Appliance will ignite and run continuously 
in the HI 

fl

 ame setting, with no adjustment in 

fl

 ame 

output.  This mode of operation is primarily used for 
initial installation or power outage operation with battery 
backup. 

  REMOTE Position:   Appliance will initiate commands 

from an optional wired wall switch and/or the wireless 
remote (RC300).

2.   If using a wired wall switch with the module in REMOTE 

mode, the 

fl

 ame output can be adjusted with the HI/LO 

selector switch on the module.  See Figure 2.3.  Note 
that the 

fl

 ame HI/LO selector switch will become inactive 

once an optional remote control (RC200/RC300) is 
programmed to the control module. Note that the control 
module will always ignite the 

fi

 replace on HI and remain 

so for the initial 10 seconds of operation.  If the HI/LO 
is switched to the LO position, the 

fl

 ame output will 

automatically drop to the lowest setting after the 

fl

 ame 

has been established for 10 sec.  After this 10 second 
period, the 

fl

 ame can be adjusted from HI to LO with 

the switch. 

3.  The control module has safety feature that automatically 

shuts down the 

fi

 replace after 9 hours of continuous 

operation without receiving a command from the RC300 
remote.  

4.  If you intend to use both an optional wired wall switch 

and the RC300 remote control to operate your 

fi

 replace, 

the wall switch will override any commands given by 
the remote. 

5. 

Module Reset 

 

This module may lock-out under certain conditions.  
When this occurs, the appliance will not ignite or 
respond to commands. The module will go into lock-out 
mode by emitting three audible beeps, then continuously 
displaying a RED/GREEN error code at its status 
indicator LED.

•  Check battery tray.  Remove batteries if installed.  

Batteries should only be installed for use during power 
outages.  See Section G.

•  Locate the module selector switch.  (See Figure 2.3).
•  Set the module selector switch to the OFF position.
• Wait 

fi

 ve (5) minutes to allow possible accumulated gas 

to clear.

•  Set the module selector switch to ON or REMOTE 

position.

•  Start the appliance.

WARNING! Risk of Explosion! DO NOT

 press the mod-

ule reset switch more than one time within a 

fi

 ve minute 

time period. Gas may accumulate in 

fi

 rebox.  Call a quali-

fi

 ed service technician.

Nine Hour Safety Shutdown Feature

This appliance has a safety feature that automatically 
shuts down the 

fi

 replace after 9 hours of continuous 

operation without receiving a command from the 
RC300 remote.
