Proflame 1 -IPI Electronic Ignition System-
Overview
The IPI system is an advanced burner controller
that provides you with the option of having either
a Standing-Pilot, or an intermittent igniting
system. This alternating mode is controlled by the
CPI/IPI Switch (Continuous Pilot
Ignition/Intermittent Pilot Ignition) located on the
IPI System Box. The difference between a
Standing-Pilot and an Intermittent-Pilot is in
whether the pilot stays lit or shuts off:
In Standing-Pilot, the pilot assembly is lit by the
IPI Main Module and continues to stay lit until 1)
the CPI/IPI Switch is switched to the IPI position;
2) a loss of electrical power (battery and AC
source), 3) the flame sensor loses its signal, 4)
the fuel supply discontinues, or 5) the IPI Main
Module malfunctions.
In the Intermittent-Pilot mode, the pilot shuts off
when the appliance is not in use. The advantage
of this mode is that fuel is not consumed when
the fireplace is not operating.
NOTE: In some jurisdictions Intermittent-Pilot is
required. That means the pilot cannot remain lit
when the appliance is not operating.
Components
The core of the IPI system is the Main Module
and the IPI Valve. With these two components
the system is able to operate a gas fireplace.
There are also other components available to
complement the IPI system.
IPI System Cover: Is essential in keeping the
components at their proper operating
temperatures.
DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE WITHOUT THIS COVER.
Modulating Servo Motor: Is an add-on valve component that permits HI/LO functionality to be controlled by the remote.
Contrary to this feature is a Manual HI/LO Control Knob. The Modulating Servo Motor requires the Remote system to be
present.
Backup Battery Pack: This component permits the IPI system to operate without the need for an external AC Adapter power
source. The advantage to using the battery backup is that in the case of a power failure, the appliance is still operable.
NOTE:
In certain instances the IPI Main Module requires resetting. This can occur if the system is unable to ignite the pilot
or the main burner in the allotted time period. The IPI is programmed to lockout all commands. To reset this lockout you
must deplete the system of all electrical power. This means to remove the batteries from the Battery Pack, remove the
batteries from the Remote Receiver (if applicable), and disconnect the AC Adapter from the system. Leave the power off
for approximately 25 seconds to clear its lockout.
Remote Receiver: This component provides the capability of controlling the appliance with a wireless remote transmitter.

Standing Pilot Mode for Colder Climates (Below Freezing)
For IPI models it may be necessary to set the appliance to Standing Pilot mode to maintain heat in the cavity. The purpose of this
procedure is to prevent cold air from penetrating the chimney and then onto the living space. Therefore, when the internal temperature
is slightly elevated the fireplace is able to freely exhaust its combustion and hence making it easier to startup.
NOTE:
The pilot system for this appliance may be equipped with a Seven Day Timer, in which case the pilot flame will be extinguished
if the main burner has not been turned ON for seven days. This Seven Day Cycle is reset every time the main burner is cycled ON /
OFF and the pilot remains lit. If more than seven days has passed since the main burner has been cycled ON / OFF and the pilot is
also out, follow the procedures described in this manual to light the pilot
.
