WALL MOUNTING
Install 4 AA-size 1.5 ALKALINE batteries in the remote receiver. For best performance, remote receiver batteries should be factory fresh when
installed. Very little battery power is required to operate the remote receiver, but the electronics are tuned to operate best when battery output
is greater than 5.3 volts. Four new AA batteries should provide an output voltage of 6.0 to 6.2 volts. Be sure batteries are installed with the
(+) and (-) ends facing the correct direction.
To attach Cover Plate to Receiver box:
Position the receiver as shown in diagram to the left with lower
tab on cover plate inserted into groove of receiver (Make sure
ADJ hole and LEARN hole on cover plate properly aligns with
remote receiver) Pull Receiver up and snap into top tab of cover
plate.
Position the cover plate so the word ON is facing up; then, install
the remote receiver into the plastic switch box using the two long
screws provided. Push the White Button over the receiver slide
switch only after making sure the remote receiver has LEARNED
the transmitter’s security code (see MATCHING SECURITY CODES).
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 MATCHING
SECURITY CODES, and recheck battery
positions in the remote receiver.
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 each of the two wires leading from the TH terminals on the millivolt gas valve to either of the two
wire terminals on the remote receiver. Normally it does not matter which wires go to which terminal.
WIRING ELECTRONIC SPARK IGNITIONS
The remote control receiver can be connected, in series, to a 24VAC transformer to the TR (transformer)
terminal on the ELECTRONIC MODULE. Connect the hot wire from the 24VAC transformer to either of the
wire terminals on the remote receiver. Connect another wire (not included) between the other receiver wire
terminal and the TH (thermostat) terminal on the ELECTRONIC MODULE.
SYSTEM CHECK
MILLIVOLT VALVES
Light your gas appliance following the lighting instructions that came with the appliance. Confirm that the pilot flame is on; it must be in
operation for the main gas valve to operate.
Slide the 3-position button on the remote receiver to the ON position. The main gas flame (i.e., the fire) should ignite.
Slide the button to OFF. The flame should extinguish (the pilot flame will remain on).
Slide the button to REMOTE (the center position), and then press the ON button on the transmitter to turn the system to ON. The main
gas flame should ignite.
Press the OFF button on the transmitter to turn the system to OFF. The flame should extinguish (the pilot flame will remain on).
Press the MODE button on the transmitter to change the system to THERMO. Advance the SET temperature on the transmitter to a
temperature of a least 2
0
F (1
0
C) above the ROOM temperature displayed on the LCD screen. With this manual setting, the normal
thermostatic cycle is overridden and the system flame will ignite. Set the SET temperature to at least 2
0
F (1
0
C) below the room
