The home automation feature supplied with this fireplace is capable
of controlling the flame and light on/off function with the use of a dry
contact relay common to home automation systems. Furthermore, the
flame and light level may be modulated from high to low using the
0 - 10 volt analog output available on most home automation systems.

(Figure 29) shows the wire designations required to connect the fire-
place to a home automation system.

Home Automation

Note: Leave the wall switch on the “Remote” setting when using

home automation.

NOTE:
