"REMOTE READY" GAS HEARTH PRODUCTS

INTRODUCTION

This remote control system was developed to provide a safe, reliable, and user-friendly remote control system for gas heating appliances or other compatible appliances. The system can be operated manually from the transmitter.

Review COMMUNICATION SAFETY under TRANSMITTER section and THERMO SAFETY under REMOTE RECEIVER section. These signal/ temperature safety features shut down the replace system when a potentially unsafe condition exists.

The transmitter operates with (4) AAA 1.5V batteries that are included. Install the batteries supplied with the unit into the battery compartment. It is recommended that ALKALINE batteries always be used for this product. Be

sure the batteries are installed with the (+) and (-) ends facing the correct direction.

When you start up the remote, if a low battery signal appears or if they LCD screen does not illuminate when you touch it, check battery position and if the batteries are fully charged.

COMMUNICATION - SAFETY

This remote control has a COMMUNICATION –SAFETY function built into its software. It provides an extra margin of safety when the Transmitter is out of the normal 20-foot operating range of the receiver.

At all times and in all OPERATING MODES, the transmitter sends an RF signal every 15 minutes, to the receiver, indicating that the transmitter is within the normal operating range of 20 feet. Should the receiver NOT receive a transmitter signal every 15 minutes, the receiver will begin a 2-hour (120 minute) countdown timing function. If during this 2-hour period, the receiver does not receive a signal from the transmitter, the receiver will shut down the appliance being controlled by the receiver. The receiver will then emit a series of rapid “beeps” for a period of 10 seconds. Then after 10 seconds of rapid beeping, the receiver will continue to emit a single “beep” every 4 seconds until a transmitter MODE button is pressed to reset the receiver.

GENERAL INFORMATION LEARNING TRANSMITTER TO RE-

CEIVER

Each transmitter uses a unique security code. It will be necessary to press the LEARN button on the receiver to accept the transmitter security code upon initial use, if batteries are replaced, or if a replacement transmitter is purchased from your dealer or the factory. In order for the receiver to accept the transmitter security code, be sure the slide button on the receiver is in the REMOTE position; the receiver will not LEARN if the slide switch is in the ON or OFF position. The LEARN button in located on the front face of the receiver; inside the small hole labeled LEARN. Using a small screwdriver or end of a paperclip gently press and release the black LEARN button inside the hole. When you release the LEARN button the receiver will emit an audible “beep”. After the receiver emits the beep press the transmitter MODE button and release. The receiver will emit several beeps indicating that the transmitter’s code has been accepted into the receiver.

THERMO SAFETY FEATURE

If the receiver should reach 130ºF, the receiver will automatically shut down and you’ll hear 3 beeps every 2 seconds. Once the temperature has dropped between 120ºF and 130ºF, the user can reactivate the appliance by pressing the MODE key, but the beeping will continue until temperatures drop below 120ºF. This is to tell the user that the receiver needs to be relocated to reduce temperatures. If this situation happens, the receiver should be relocated so it will not reach temperatures in excess of 130ºF.

TRANSMITTER WALL MOUNT

The transmitter can be placed on a wall using the mount provided.

Wood - Drill 1/8’’ pilot holes and install with screws provided.

Plaster/Wallboard - Drill 1/4’’ holes, use a hammer to tap in the two plastic anchors. Then install with the screws provided.

Figure 23 - Transmitter Wall Mount

BATTERY LIFE

Life expectancy of the alkaline batteries in the transmitter and receiver should be at least 12 months.

Check and replace all batteries: Annually. When operating range becomes reduced. When transmissions are not received by the

remote receiver. If the remote receiver batteries measure less

than 5.3 volts (all four batteries in combination).

If the hand held transmitter batteries measure less than 5.3 volts (all 4 batteries in combination).
