STANDING PILOT OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
REMOTE/OFF/ON Switch
The fireplace is equipped with a
REMOTE/OFF/ON switch. A wire
harness is attached to the REMOTE/OFF/ON switch. The red,
black and green (wires) female push-ons attach to the REMOTE/
OFF/ON switch. At the opposite end of the wire harness, the black
and green (wires) female push-ons attach to the gas valve. An ad-
ditional green wire and the red wire, which are stripped and bare,
will attach to one of the accessories that can be purchased for use
with your fireplace.
Operation of REMOTE/OFF/ON Switch with no Accessories
To ignite main burner, turn the control knob on the gas valve from
the PILOT position to the ON position. Turn the REMOTE/OFF/ON
switch from the OFF position to the ON position. The additional
green wire and red wire, which are stripped and bare are not used.
Wall Switch, FWS-1
Connect the green and red, stripped and bare, wires on the REMOTE/
OFF/ON switch wire harness to the wall switch. Turn the REMOTE/
OFF/ON switch to the REMOTE position. Pivot the rocker switch
on the FWS-1 to the ON position.
Wall Thermostats (optional)
TRW - Wireless for Millivolt models
TMV - Reed switch for Millivolt models
Battery Operated Remote Controls, FRBC, FRBTC, and TRW
Connect the green and red, stripped and bare, wires on the
REMOTE/OFF/ON switch wire harness to the remote receiver
that is a component in the remote kit. Turn the REMOTE/OFF/ON
switch to the REMOTE position. Follow instructions included with
the remote to complete installation.
Note:
If batteries fail in the remote, and immediate heat is desired,
turn the REMOTE/OFF/ON switch from the REMOTE position to
the ON position.
Installation of Remote Receiver
Place remote receiver on the floor of fireplace behind the louver as
far forward as possible.
Attention:
The Velcro loop and hook are not necessary in this
installation but can be used to secure remote receiver.
Refer to remote control installation and operating instructions for
more details on remote control.
Millivolt Control
The valve regulator controls the burner pressure which should be
checked at the pressure test point. Turn captured screw counter
clockwise 2 or 3 turns and then place tubing to pressure gauge over
test point (Use test point “A” closest to control knob). After taking
pressure reading, be sure and turn captured screw clockwise firmly
to re-seal. Do not over torque. Check for gas leaks.
Millivolt thermopile is self generating. Gas valve does not require
24 volts or 110 volts.
Check System Operation
Millivolt system and all individual components may be checked with
a millivolt meter 0-1000 MV range.
Use wire of a gauge proper for the length of the wire:
Recommended Wire Gauges
Maximum Length
Wire Gauge
1-ft to 10-ft
18
10-ft to 25-ft
16
25-ft to 35-ft

Millivolt System
The standing pilot burns continuously even when the main burner
is OFF.
When you ignite the pilot, the thermopile produces millivolts (electrical
current) which energizes the magnet in the gas valve. After 30
seconds you can release the gas control knob and the pilot will stay
ON. Allow the pilot flame to burn an additional one to two minutes
before you turn the gas control knob from the PILOT position to
the ON position. This allows the millivolts current to build-up to a
sufficient level to operate the gas control properly.
1. Follow the SAFETY and LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS for
standing pilot controls found in this manual and on labels found
in control compartment behind the door assembly.
CAUTION
During the initial purging and subsequent lightings, never
allow the gas valve control knob to remain depressed in the
“pilot” position without pushing the piezo ignitor button at
least once every second.
2. During the operating season, leave the control valve knob in
the “ON” position. This will allow the pilot flame to remain lit.
Turn the burner flame on or off with the fireplace
REMOTE/
OFF/ON switch, wall switch or remote controls.
NOTE:
The gas control valve allows you to increase or decrease the
height of the main burner flame. The control valve has a pressure
regulator with a knob as shown in
Figure 68.
Rotate the knob
clockwise to “HI” to increase the flame height and counterclockwise
to “LO” to decrease the flame height.
3. When the heating season ends, turn the REMOTE/OFF/ON
switch to “OFF” and the control valve to “OFF”. The system,
including the pilot light, will be shut down.
Figure 68
The OWNER should carefully read and follow these operating
instructions.
Initial Lighting
Lower the door assembly to view the gas controls for the fireplace.
Upon completing the gas line or turning the gas valve on after it has
been in the “OFF” position, a small amount of air will be in the lines.
When first lighting the fireplace, it will take a few minutes for the
lines to purge this air. Once the purging is complete, the fireplace
will light and operate satisfactorily.
Subsequent lightings of the appliance will not require purging if the
gas valve is not turned to “OFF.”
Pilot Flame
The pilot flame should cover the thermopile and thermocouple.
