A Closer Look
It is important to understand how the LED lights function when the stove is in use. Let’s
take a look at the ON/OFF light. The ON/OFF light indicates more than the fact that the
stove is running. The light blinks when first turning the stove on until the room fan starts
blowing warm air into the room. This means the “PROOF OF FIRE” switch has sensed
a fire in the stove by monitoring the Exhaust temperatures.
When operating the stove on a Thermostat, the light remains ON when the
thermostat is calling for heat and starts blinking when the heat demand has been
met. Once the heat demand has been met the stove drops to the #1 setting and pilots,
during this time the LED light showing the selected Heat level does not change, but the
ON/OFF light blinks .
REMEMBER: A blinking ON/OFF light may mean one of 2 things:
1. The stove is in start-up mode.
2. The stove is in pilot mode.
Use the Feed Trim Button (5) to Fine Tune the level 1 Heat Setting if a little more
heat or a little less heat is desired on the lowest level. This may be needed depending on
the type of Fuel that is used. The BTU content of the approved fuels varies and adjusting
the control board may be needed. Refer to Figures 3 through 5 on Page 66 to see how the
LED lights light up when adjusting the Level 1 Heat Setting.
Use the Draft Trim Button (4) Fine Tuning the Combustion Fan for level one is a
little more complex. Usually when venting the stove in a direct vent situation, this
adjustment is not needed. When venting into an existing chimney or running the venting
system all the way above the roof, an adjustment may be needed to compensate for the
additional Natural Draft in the chimney. Use the damper on the back of the stove first try
and adjust for too much air on the low. As a final resort use the fan button to reduce the
fan voltage. Press the Fan Button and all the LED lights on the Heat Advance bar light up
simultaneously. This reduces the Combustion Fan voltage approximately 6 volts. Press
the button again and the all lights flash twice. Press the button a third time and the lights
all flash once again and the board reverts to the default Combustion Fan voltage. ( Refer
to figure 6 on Page 66 to see how the lights flash when adjusting the Combustion Fan
voltage.)
CAUTION: Using the Draft Trim Button (4) in a direct vent situation may cause the
Vacuum Switch alarm to shut the stove down by reducing the fan speed, which in
turn reduces the vacuum in the stove. (Vacuum switch requires a minimum of .05”
WC of negative pressure)
REMEMBER: Any adjustments to the board by using the Trim buttons will be lost in
the event there is a power failure or the unit is unplugged. Tell the customer to make a
note of the final adjustment to the control board for future reference.
