COMPARTMENT
This is a single functioning wireless remote control system for
operating gas valves with ON/OFF latching solenoids
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-foot range using non-directional signals. The system operates on one of 255 security codes that are
programmed into the transmitter at the factory; the remote receiver must learn the transmitter code prior to initial use.
This remote control SYSTEM offers the user a battery-operated remote
control to power a ON/OFF latching solenoid such as those used with gas
valves used in some decorative gas logs, gas fireplaces and other gas
heating appliances.
The circuit uses the battery power from the receiver to operate a latching
solenoid. The circuit has reversing polarity software which reverses the
positive (+) and negative (-) output of the receiver’s battery power to drive
solenoid (ON/OFF FLAME) or open/close. The SYSTEM is controlled by
the remote transmitter.
The transmitter operates on a 12V battery made specifically for remote
controls and electronic lighters. Before using the transmitter install the
12-volt (A-23) 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 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 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.
POWER SETTING - CON 1001
The electronics in the remote control system have the capability of “powering” two different types of DC-powered
components. If any operational problems accure contact Skytech Systems, Inc.
The RECEIVER comes from the factory programmed to provide pulse DC voltage (5.5) VDC to 6.3 VDC) to a latching
solenoid.
