AUTOMATIC TURN DOWN TO PILOT
3 Hour No Communication Function
▪ The valve will turn to pilot flame if there is no communication
between handset and receiver for a 3 hour period. The fire will
continue to function normally when communication is restored.
Receiver Overheating
▪ Powered by mains adapter: The valve turns to pilot flame if the
receiver temperature is higher than 176 °F (80 °C). If batteries
are installed in the receiver in this configuration the temperature
must not exceed 60 °C.
▪ Powered by batteries and/or connected to the V module: The
valve turns to pilot position if the temperature in the receiver is
higher than 140 °F (60 °C).
NOTE:
When the receiver temperature is below 140 °F (60 °C),
the main burner can be turned ON manually. In Thermo-
static Mode, the main burner turns ON automatically.
1 Hour Turn Down
(optional; requires special receiver and handset software)
▪ The valve will turn to pilot flame if there is no motor movement
over a 1 hour period.
AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF
Countdown Timer
▪
At end of countdown time period, the fire shuts off. The Count-
down Timer only works in Manual, Thermostatic, and Eco
Modes. Maximum countdown time is 9 hours and 50 minutes.
Low Battery Receiver
▪ With low battery power in the receiver the system shuts off the
fire completely. This will not happen if the power supply is inter-
rupted.
On-Demand Pilot
▪ This green feature eliminates gas energy consumption during
extended appliance inactivity. When the appliance is inactive
for an extended period of time the system automatically extin-
guishes the pilot. This feature helps the consumer realize cost
benefits by automatically eliminating energy consumption dur-
ing non-heating months and limited use.
▪ The programmed length of inactivity to activate the system is
specified by the appliance manufacturer and cannot be altered
in the field.
2
nd
Thermocouple Shut Off
(optional)
▪ The system shuts off the fire if the main burner does not com-
pletely ignite approximately 20 seconds after ignition or after
pushing button.
NOTE:
Before the next ignition there is a 2 minute waiting pe-
riod. If the thermocouple is then still too hot, you will
hear a long beep.
