Control Functions
Pilot Mode
Continuous Pilot (CPI):
Running the Bristol 8762 in CPI mode will keep your pilot on even when the thermostat
does not call for heat and when the burner is not lit. This is an advantage in cold climates or under windy
conditions. The “standing pilot” helps to keep the venting warm and generate some draft within the system. The
standing pilot also keeps the firebox warm – greatly minimizing, or eliminating condensation formation on the
glass during startup. The ignitor will automatically spark whenever the pilot mode is switched to CPI, regardless
of the position of the receiver switch.
Intermittent Pilot (IPI):
Using the IPI mode is a more efficient use of fuel as the pilot only ignites when the
thermostat calls for heat.

Remote Receiver
The Receiver is normally powered by the Fan Control Module or by four 1.5V AA batteries during a power
outage. The Receiver switch can be set to three different positions:
On:
Manual override allowing the valve to function and ignite the burner without the remote transmitter. The
ignitor will spark automatically.
Remote:
Remote Transmitter controls all functions of components.
Off:
Turns off the stove. If CPI mode is selected, pilot will remain lit.
PRG Key:
Used to synchronize the Transmitter and Receiver initially, and after each battery change (see page
35).
