REMOTE RECEIVER
IMPORTANT
THE REMOTE RECEIVER SHOULD BE POSITIONED WHERE AMBIENT
TEMPERATURES DO NOT EXCEED 130° F.
The remote receiver operates on (4) AA-size 1.5 volt 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. It emits
one beep when it receives an ON or OFF command manually, but no beep when
cycling on and off automatically in THERMO mode. 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
INSTALLATION
The remote receiver can be mounted on or near the fireplace hearth
. PROTECTION FROM EXTREME HEAT IS VERY IMPORTANT.
Like any piece of electronic equipment, the remote receiver should be kept away from temperatures exceeding 130ºF inside the
receiver case. Battery life is also significantly shortened if batteries are exposed to high temperatures.
HEARTH MOUNT
The remote receiver can be placed on the fireplace hearth or under the fireplace,
behind the control access panel. Locate the receiver where it is not exposed to
Extreme heat.
NOTE: Black Button is used on Hearth Mount Applications.
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 Battery life is also significantly shortened if batteries are exposed to high temperatures.
It is recommended that 18-gage solid or stranded wires (included) be used to make connections between the terminal wiring block on
the millivolt gas valve or electronic module and the wire terminals on the remote receiver. For the best results, use 18-gage stranded
wire, with no splices and measuring no longer than 20-foot.
WALL MOUNTING
Install (4) AA-size 1.5 ALKALINE batteries in the remote receiver. For best performance, remote receiver batteries should be factory
fresh when installed. Very little battery power is required to operate the remote receiver, but the electronics are tuned to operate best
when battery output is greater than 5.3 volts. Four new AA batteries should provide an output voltage of 6.0 to 6.2 volts.
Be sure
batteries are installed with the (+) and (-) ends facing the correct direction
