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. If the system does not respond to the battery transmitter on initial use, see LEARNING
TRANSMITTER TO RECEIVER, and recheck battery positions in the remote receiver.
HEARTH MOUNT
The remote receiver can be placed on the fireplace hearth or
under the fireplace, behind the control access panel. Position
receiver where the ambient temperature inside the case does
not exceed 130°F.
NOTE
: Black Slide Button is used for Hearth
Mount applications.
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
A qualified electrician or a gas technician who is familiar with the gas appliance and gas valves that will be operated by
this remote should install the remote-control system. Incorrect wiring connections WILL cause damage to the gas valve or
electronic module operating the gas appliance and may also damage the remote receiver.
WIRING MILLIVOLT VALVES
The remote receiver is connected to the millivolt valve using the TH (thermostat) terminals on the terminal block on the
millivolt gas valve. Connect 18 gauge solid or stranded wires from the remote receiver to the gas valve.

Operation of the remote receiver is similar to that of a
thermostat in that both turn the gas valve ON and OFF based
on input signals. A thermostat’s input signals are different
temperatures. The remote receiver’s input signals come from
the transmitter.
Connect one of the two wires leading from the receiver to the
TH terminal and the other to the TH/TP terminal on the millivolt
gas valve it does not matter which wires go to which terminal.
The remote control receiver can be connected, in series
between a 24VAC transformer and the TR terminal on
the ELECTRONIC MODULE. Connect the hot wire from
the 24VAC transformer to either of the wire on the
remote receiver. Connect another wire (included)
between the other receiver wire terminal and the TH
(thermostat) terminal on the ELECTRONIC MODULE.
