3. LIGHTING & CONTROLLING THE FIRE
3.1 General
The fire is available with 2 Control Options:
Option a) The Nu-Flame Thermatronic (Fully Sequential) Radio Frequency Electronic Control System.
The fire is fully operated using the Handset.
Option b) The Nu-Flame Thermostatic Thermatronic (Fully Sequential) Radio Frequency Electronic Control System.
The fire is fully operated using the Handset but also the Handset allows you to do control the temperature of the room during the day or
night, and timer programs.
Both Control Systems are battery operated that use a microprocessor to provide the working sequences needed by the fire, and when
used with an oxypilot have all the safety features required by law and CE approval.
Commands are accepted by the microprocessor when buttons are pressed. An audible beep means that the command is received,
and the push buttons should then be released.
3.2 Using the Thermatronic RF System
Control can only be achieved if the Handset is pointed at the Fire.
The red light will flash each time you press the Handset.
a. Ignition.
Simultaneously press and hold the red/off and the large flame button (linked by arrow) until a
short acoustic signal confirms that the sequence has begun, then release the buttons.
Continuous audible signals confirm that ignition is in progress.
When pilot ignition is confirmed the motor will open the valve to maximum flame height – this takes about
30 seconds. The main burner will then light at the high flame setting.
b. Flame Height Adjustment.
Press the small flame button until the flame height is at the desired position.
If you try to go beyond the preset low flame setting the fire will turn off leaving the pilot burner alight
(This is the standby position).
You will learn from experience how to achieve the minimum preset low flame setting.
c.
Relighting the Fire.
To relight the fire from the standby position, or to increase the flame setting from low
flame, simultaneously press the red/off button and large flame buttons (linked by arrow).
Please note that you can have the flame height anywhere between maximum and preset low.
For fine adjustment simply tap the large and small flame buttons.
d. Switching Off.
Press the red/off button.
3.3 Using the Thermostatic Thermatronic RF System
Control can only be achieved if the Handset is pointed at the Fire.
You will see that the Handset as a screen with symbols and reference should be made to the following screen settings for each
stage of operation.
With the fire in the off position the screen will look as shown below.
This is the Manual Setting display and will be used to first light the fire.
The screen shows the following:
a. Ignition.
Simultaneously press the Off and Large Flame Buttons (linked by the line/star symbols) until
a short acoustic signal confirms that the sequence has begun, then release the buttons.
Continuous audible signals confirm that ignition is in progress.
When pilot ignition is confirmed the motor will open the valve to maximum flame height – this takes
about 30 seconds. The main burner will then light at the high flame setting.
b. Flame Height Adjustment.
Press the small flame button until the flame height is at the desired
position. For fine adjustment tap the Large Flame or Small Flame buttons
If you try to go beyond the low flame setting the fire will turn off the main burner leaving the pilot burner alight
(This is the standby position).
You will learn from experience how to achieve the minimum low flame setting.
c.
Relighting the Fire.
To relight the fire from the standby position, or to increase the flame setting
from low flame, simply press the large flame button.
Please note that you can have the flame height anywhere between maximum and low.
For fine adjustment simply tap the large and small flame buttons.
Note: You can also automatically set the fire at either Tall or Low Flame setting by pressing the desired flame Button twice.
d. Switching Off.
Press the off button
You can now proceed to the other features of the Handset such as Setting the Time, Temperature and Time Programmes.
