INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
INTRODUCTION
This SKYTECH remote control system was developed to provide safe, reliable, and user-friendly remote control system for gas heating
appliances. The system can be operated manually from the transmitter. The system operates on one of 255 security codes that are
programmed into the transmitter at the factory.
TRANSMITTER
The transmitter operates on a 12-volt battery (included) made specifically for
remote controls and electronic lighters. Install the 12-volt battery supplied with
the unit into the battery compartment.
It is recommended that ALKALINE batteries always be used for longer battery life
and maximum operational performance.
The transmitter has ON and OFF functions that are activated by pressing either
button on the face of the transmitter. When a button on the transmitter is
pressed, a signal light on the transmitter illuminates briefly to verify that a signal
has been 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
The remote receiver operates on power from the thermopile. It is recommended that the thermopile voltage with the main
burner OFF be no less than 450 millivolts for proper microprocessor performance. IMPORTANT: It is essential that
proper voltage from the thermopile be maintained 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. 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.

THE SKYTECH 1001BE MUST BE INSTALLED EXACTLY AS OUTLINED IN THESE INSTRUCTIONS. FOLLOW
INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY DURING INSTALLATION. ANY MODIFICATION OF THE SKYTECH 100BE OR ANY OF ITS
