STR-RMD INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
SINGLE-FUNCTION WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM
FOR OPERATING HI/LOW SERVO MOTOR
INTRODUCTION
This remote control system was developed to provide a safe, reliable, and user-friendly remote control system for gas heating
appliances. The system is operated manually from the transmitter. The system operates on radio frequencies (RF) within a 20' range
using non-directional signals. The system operates on one of 65,536 security codes that are programmed into the transmitter at the
factory; the remote receiver must learn the transmitter code prior to initial use.
TRANSMITTER
This remote control SYSTEM offers the user a battery-operated remote control to
power a DC servo-motor to remotely turn the gas log set on, off and adjust the
flame height.
The servo motor circuit uses the battery power from the receiver to operate a
servomotor. The circuit has reversing polarity software, which reverses the
positive (+) and negative (-) output of the receiver's battery power to drive the
servo motor forward/backward (HI/LO FLAME). The remote transmitter controls
the SYSTEM.
The transmitter operates on a 12V battery (A-23). Before using the transmitter
install the 12-volt battery in the battery compartment.
It is recommended that ALKALINE batteries always be used for longer battery life
and maximum operational performance.
The transmitter has ON/HI, LO, and OFF functions that are activated by pressing
the buttons on the face of the transmitter. When a button on the transmitter is
pressed, a signal light on the transmitter illuminates to verify that a signal is being
sent. Upon initial use, there may be a delay of three seconds before the remote
receiver will respond to the transmitter. This is part of the system's design. If the
signal light does not illuminate, check the position of the transmitter's battery.
REMOTE RECEIVER
IMPORTANT
THE REMOTE RECEIVER SHOULD BE POSITIONED WHERE
AMBIENT TEMPERATURES DO NOT EXCEED 130° F.
The remote receiver (right) operates on four 1.5V AA-size 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 to proper operation of the remote receiver as a servo
motor's power consumption is substantially higher than standard remote control
systems.
NOTE: The remote receiver will only respond to the transmitter when the 3-
position slide button on the remote receiver is in the REMOTE position. The
remote receiver houses the microprocessor that responds to commands from the
transmitter to control system operation.
