BATTERY LIFE
Life expectancy of alkaline batteries in the SKYTECH 3324R should be at least 12 months. Replace all batteries annually. When the
Transmitter no longer operates the receiver from a distance it did previously (i.e., the transmitter’s range has decreased) or the remote
receiver does not function at all, the batteries should be checked. The Transmitter should operate with as little as 2.5 volts of battery
power, measuring at the (2) 1.5 volt batteries.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Should you encounter problems with your fireplace system, the problem may be with the fireplace itself or it could be with the
SKYTECH remote control. Review the fireplace manufacturer’s operation manual to make sure all connections are properly made.
Then check the operation of the SKYTECH remote in the following manner:
1. Check the receptacle supplying power to the 24VAC transformer. The output should be 110-120 VAC. If there is no power to
receptacle, check fuse or circuit breaker at main electrical panel. NOTE: Be sure receptacle is not controlled by a wall switch
.
2. Be sure the transmitter’s batteries are properly installed and that the battery output is 2.5V or more.
3. Check to make sure the transmitter is communicating with the receiver.
1. If the receiver beeps when the MODE button is depressed on the transmitter they are communicating.
2. If the receiver does not beep when the MODE button is depressed on the transmitter, you will need to teach the receiver the
code of the transmitter. This is done by holding the LEARN button down on the receiver, and at the same time depress the
MODE button on the transmitter. A change in the beeping pattern at the receiver indicates when the code is accepted.
4. Make sure the transmitter is within the 15’ – 20’ range of the receiver.
5. Positioning of the receiver is important. If the receiver is “enclosed”
in a metal surround, the operation of the receiver may be
affected as noted below. Reposition the receiver to improve operating range. It is suggested that a heat shield be installed to
protect the receiver from extreme heat. If the receiver is “enclosed
” in a metal surround, this can:
1. Cause the RF signal to get lost and not communicate with the receiver.
2. Cause the working distance to be shorter than normal.
NOTE
Areas that exceed 130
0
F will cause the THERMO-SAFETY feature to cut in, requiring you to reposition the receiver to stop the
warning beeps, and to “reset” the receiver’s operation.
