Electrical Control Module: The Electrical Control Module is a
device that allows components such as the fan or lamp assembly
to be controlled remotely. This is done by connecting the data
port to the Receiver Module wiring hardness, and the supply plug
to a reliable 110VAC source. When the Electrical Control Module
is powered ON signals from the receiver will serve to engage and
disengage the output ports. However, note that the 110V Out port
is marked “unswitched”. This means that once the Electrical
Control Module is operational, the 110V Out supplies 110VAC
continuously.
ALTERNATE CONFIGURATION: This system is also capable of
dimming the lights remotely. To achieve this simply connect the
halogen lamp transformer to the FAN Out port (instead of the
AUX Out) and use the FAN mode in the remote transmitter to
control the lights (Instead of AUX).
Electrical Supply in Series: The entire IPI system can be powered
by a single power source (i.e. by the AC Adapter). This is
advantageous if you do not want to supply extra batteries. To achieve this simply connect the AC Adapter into the Remote
Control wiring harness instead of the main IPI harness. From the Remote wiring harness, use its male plug-in connector and
connect it to the female plug-in in the main IPI harness. Now the circuit is complete. So the way it works is that electrical power
is supplied to the Remote Receiver module and then proceeds to the Main IPI module. Furthermore, note that a Backup
Battery Pack is not required in this configuration. Instead, batteries in the Remote Receiver resume the function as a backup
supply.
Electrical Compartment Location
The electrical compartment is located on the right side of the appliance outside of the fireplace (refer to Figure 21). It is
accessible either from the outside of the unit or through the firebox via the Cavity Access Plate. All electrical connections and
supplies must be contained within this compartment.
For ease of installation, it is recommended that all electrical work is
performed prior to fitting the fireplace into its framed enclosure.
Be sure to follow local electrical codes and practices
when working with the electrical components.
IMPORTANT: Heat shield cover plate for the electrical compartment must
be installed before operating this appliance.

WARNING
Electrical Grounding Instructions
This appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your protection against shock hazard and
should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the
grounding prong from this plug.
NOTE
: The Remote Receiver module can also be located outside of the appliance to a maximum of 6ft away installed in a certified
deep wall switch electrical box (2-3/4” depth). For this configuration an extension wiring harness (P/N: 1001-P904SI) is required.
