4.3.12 Low Battery Power Detection
The life span of the remote control batteries
depends on various factors: quality of the batteries
used, the number of ignitions of the fireplace, the
number of changes to the room thermostat set
point, etc. When the transmitter batteries are
low, an Icon will appear on the LCD display of the
transmitter before all battery power is lost. When
the batteries are replaced this icon will disappear.
OFF
4.3.13 Battery Backup Operation
Install batteries (Pairing the remote step one, «Pairing the remote», page 18) In case of power loss, the
fireplace will switch to battery mode automatically. The fireplace will operate normally without the blower
or light control when in battery mode.
4.3.14 Low Battery Detection
When the backup batteries are low, a double-beep will be emitted when the module receives an ON/OFF
command. No commands will be accepted until the batteries are replaced or the A/C power is restored.
4.3.15 Lockout State Definition
A lockout state is reached when an ignition error occurs. The lockout state will remain set in memory as
long as the power supplies are applied.
This could mean both an anomalous flame detection or too many unsuccessful ignition tries.
This state is a safe condition for the fireplace and is entered automatically by the IFC board.
When the IFC board gets into lockout state:
1. both the pilot and the main burner solenoids in the gas valve are de-energized;
2. a diagnostic code is sent through the diagnostic red LED.
3. the IFC board will ignore any burner ignition command and remain in the OFF state unless the unlock
command sequence is met.
The causes of lockout must be investigated under safe conditions by the user and/or the service personnel.
To reset the IFC from a lockout state, perform the following procedure:
• Turn the system power supplies (to the wall control or remote control) OFF for two or three seconds
and then restoring a power supply back on.
• The return of the system to normal operation must be checked under safe conditions by the user and/
or service personnel.
