CONNECTING REMOTE RECEIVER
THESE INSTRUCTIONS SUPERCEDE THE SECTION ENTITLED “HEARTH MOUNT” IN THE MILLI-VOLT
HAND-HELD REMOTE INSTRUCTIONS SUPPLIED WITH THE REMOTE.
1. Cut cable to length (approximately 12") for placement in the fireplace.
2. Strip back 1/4" of the insulation from both ends of each wire.
3. Connect two connectors to the wires at one end of the cable.
4. Insert the opposite ends of the wires into the receiver wire terminals and tighten the screws.
5. Connect the connectors to the terminals labeled TH/TP and TH on the millivolt valve. (See Figure 32, page 20). Do not
let wire touch grate or front burner.
6. Stick velcro pads with self-adhesive backing to bottom of remote receiver and to floor of compartment behind access
panel.
7. Attach remote receiver to firebox with velcro pads. Control switch must face forward.
CHECKING SYSTEM OPERATION
The millivolt system and individual components may be checked with a millivolt meter having a 0-1000 mV range. Conduct
each check shown in chart below by connection meter test leads to terminals as indicated.
A.
COMPLETE MILLIVOLT SYSTEM CHECK
(“A” Reading - Thermostat contacts CLOSED - Control Knob “ON” - Main burner should be come ON)
a. If the reading is more than 100 millivolts and the automatic valve still does not come on, replace the control.
b. If the closed circuit reading (“A” reading) is less than 100 milli-volts, determine cause for low reading, proceed to
Section B below.
B.
Thermopile Output Reading Check
(“B” Reading - Thermostat contacts OPEN - Main burner OFF)
1. Check gas pressure to the unit. If gas pressure is within minimum and maximum on data plate, then check pilot
voltage, 325 millivolts minimum. If the minimum milli-volt reading is not obtainable, replace pilot.
