WALL MOUNTING THE TIMER
1.
Remove face from backing plate by insetting a small screwdriver into the small
slot at the top or bottom of the faceplate as shown to the right then snap OFF.
2.
Locate the (2) two mounting holes and mark the holes on the wall.
3.
Use the (2) two dry wall anchors and screws (that are supplied) to mount the
base plate to the wall as shown.
4.
The wall transmitter can also be mounted onto an existing (Plastic) electrical
box.
5.
Base plate should be mounted level on the wall for best operation.
RECEIVER
The remote receiver operates on 4 AA-size 1.5V batteries. It is recommended that ALKALINE batteries be used for longer battery life
and maximum microprocessor performance. IMPORTANT: New or fully charged batteries are essential for proper operation of the
remote receiver.
The remote receiver houses the microprocessor that responds to commands from the transmitter to control system operation. The
remote receiver has a 3-position slide switch for selecting the MODE of operation: ON/REMOTE/OFF
•
With the slide switch in the ON position (toward the LEARN button), the system will
remain on until the slide switch is placed in the OFF or REMOTE position.
•
With the slide switch in the REMOTE position (centered), the system will only operate
if the remote receiver receives commands
from the transmitter.
•
With the slide switch in the OFF position (away from the LEARN button), the system
is off.
•
It is suggested that the slide switch be placed in the off position if you will be
away from your home for an extended period of time. If the remote receiver is
mounted out of children’s reach, placing the slide switch in the OFF position
also functions as a safety “lock-out” by both turning the system off and
rendering the remote receiver inoperative.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
This remote control system must be installed exactly as outlined in these instructions. Read all instructions completely before
attempting installation. Follow instructions carefully during installation. Any modifications of the SKYTECH remote control or any of its
components will void the warrant and may be pose a fire hazard.
Do not connect any gas valve or electronic module directly to 110-120VAC power. Consult gas appliance manufacturer’s instructions
and wiring schematics for proper placement of all wires. All electronic modules are to be wired to manufacturer’s specifications.
The following wiring diagrams are for illustration purpose only. Follow instructions from manufacturer of gas valve and/or electronic
module for correct wiring procedures. Improper installation of electric components can cause damage to electronic module, gas valve
and remote receiver.
INSTALLATION
The remote receiver can be either wall-mounted in a standard plastic switch box or placed on or near the fireplace hearth. Preferably,
the remote receiver should be wall-mounted in a plastic switch box, as this will protect its electronic components from both the heat
produced by the gas appliance and potential damage or abuse that can occur if it is left exposed on the hearth. PROTECTION FROM
EXTREME HEAT IS VERY IMPORTANT. Like any piece of electronic equipment, the remote receiver should be kept away from
temperatures exceeding 130
0
F inside the receiver case. Battery life is also significantly shortened if batteries are exposed to high
temperatures.
