ELECTRICAL WARNING AND INFORMATION:
Electrical wiring must be installed by a licensed electrician.
Do NOT wire 110V to wall switch.
Uninterrupted or continuous power is required at all times in IPI systems EXCEPT when using battery back-up.
Incorrect wiring will override IPI safety lockout and may cause an explosion.
Disconnect 110V before servicing
A double receptacle box cover and (3) wire nuts are supplied in fireplace components packet to be used when hardwiring to electrical box
located under firebox on right side of fireplace. Ensure receptacle box cover is installed with flange to top.
ATTENTION: THIS SYSTEM GOES THROUGH A CALIBRATION MODE WHEN SWITCHING FROM „ON‟ TO „THERMO‟ TO „OFF‟ MODES, CREATING A HUMMING SOUND WHICH IS A NORMAL PART OF OPERATION.
CONTINUOUS PILOT (FOR VERY COLD CONDITIONS)
The IPI gas control system has the option of a continuous (standing) pilot feature. This allows you to change from a spark-to-pilot
system to a standing pilot system during cold weather conditions. By having the pilot on continuously, the firebox will remain warm
and a draft is established in the vent, allowing the main burner to turn on with less air-flow disruption.
When continuous pilot mode is activated and fireplace is turned ON, the pilot will spark and light. When fireplace is turned OFF, the pilot
will remain lit when main burner has been turned OFF.
This pilot feature can be activated or de-activated by the hand held remote control transmitter. Instructions on following page.
OPERATION USING BATTERY POWER
This fireplace has an optional battery operation if electrical power is lost. Position battery pack with four “AA” size batteries installed
between valve and front of fireplace. This is the coolest location under firebox, ensuring longer battery life.
NOTE: When operating fireplace in this capacity, the only function available is flame modulation.
MATCHING SECURITY CODES
Before matching security codes make sure 120V AC is connected and powered
to fireplace, and hand held remote control is installed with (2) AA batteries.
It may be necessary to program main control module to LEARN the security
code of the hand held remote control upon initial use, if batteries are replaced, or
if a replacement remote control is purchased from your dealer.
1. When matching security codes, be sure slide button on main control module
is in REMOTE; the code will not “LEARN” if slide is in OFF.
2. Program main control module to LEARN a new security code by pushing in
LEARN button on main control module using a pencil point for 2 seconds
(you should hear a single „beep‟ letting you know module is ready to learn a
new code).
3. Press MODE button on hand held remote control (you should hear four
„beeps‟ in rapid succession in main control module, indicating remote
control‟s code has been programmed into the main control module). When
an existing main control module is introduced to a new hand held remote
control, the new security code will overwrite the old one.
If it ever becomes necessary to clear the memory from the hand held remote
control, simply push and hold the LEARN button for 10 seconds (you should
hear three long beeps in succession). You may now follow steps outlined above
to „RE-LEARN‟ security codes.

MAIN CONTROL MODULE WILL NOT LEARN TRANSMITTER
Ensure REMOTE/OFF switch on side of main control module is set to REMOTE.
Make sure batteries in both the hand held remote and backup battery pack are installed in the proper direction and are not drained.
Verify hand held remote indicates a signal is being sent. The LCD display should indicate ON or OFF depending on which button is
being pressed. The LED indicator should illuminate on wall transmitters and on/off transmitters. Buttons should be pressed and held for
1 to 2 seconds to ensure a complete signal is sent.
Ensure 4-pin lead-set is securely connected from battery pack to main control module‟s AUX connection. If the A/C adapter is used,
check that leads from adapter are securely connected to POWER terminals on main control module.
Press and hold LEARN button on main control module for approximately 10 seconds to clear memory (you should hear a series of
beeps from the receiver), immediately press either the ON or OFF button on hand held remote (you should hear a series of beeps
indicating the transmitter code has been learned).
PILOT WILL NOT LIGHT / STAY LIT
Verify gas supply is turned on.
Verify main control module is receiving signal from hand held remote by listening for a beep from receiver when ON is pressed on
hand held remote. If you do not hear a beep, ensure main control module has learned the hand held remote. (See above).
Ensure black lead from pilot assembly igniter is securely connected to terminal labeled “I” and red lead from flame rectification sensor
is securely connected terminal labeled “S” on main control module.
Ensure black cap leads marked “PILOT” from main control module are securely connected to terminals labeled “PILOT” on valve
body.
Ensure black GROUND wire is securely connected to tab located next to ON/OFF toggle switch. A proper ground is essential to
spark igniter operation.
Make sure pilot flame is in contact with flame rectification sensor on pilot assembly. This valve is equipped with a pilot flame
adjustment screw. If pilot flame is too small it will not contact flame rectification sensor and will not complete the safety circuit.
PILOT FLAME ALWAYS ON / WILL NOT EXTINGUISH
Ensure continuous pilot icon is not present in LCD screen. If icon is present, press PILOT button. This will de-activate the continuous
pilot feature and the icon will disappear from LCD screen.
PILOT BURNING BUT IGNITER CONTINUES TO SPARK

MAIN FLAME WILL NOT LIGHT
Verify gas supply is turned on.
Ensure pilot flame will ignite. If not, see pilot flame troubleshooting on previous page.
Make sure white cap leads marked “MAIN” from module are securely connected to terminals marked “MAIN” on valve body.
Make certain pilot flame is in contact with flame rectification sensor on pilot assembly. This valve is equipped with a pilot flame
adjustment screw. If pilot flame is too small it will not contact flame rectification sensor and will not complete the safety circuit.
Ensure pilot flame is properly located to ignite main flame.
Does hand held remote show CP in the display? If yes, childproof is on. De-activate by pushing PROG/TIME & UP keys at same time
for more than 5 seconds.
Check continuity of main burner coil on gas valve. Remove wire connector. If there is no continuity on pin terminals, replace valve.
FLAME HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT NOT WORKING / WORKS BACKWARDS
Ensure “+” (white dotted wire) and “—” (black wire) leads from battery pack or module are securely connected to “+” (white dotted
wire) and “—” (black wire) leads from main control module (“+” to “+”, “—” to “—”).
Check functionality with all transmitters to determine if there is an issue with the main control system or an individual transmitter. If
the issue is with an individual transmitter, make sure batteries in hand held remote and backup battery pack are installed properly and
are not drained.
ROOM TEMP. DISPLAYED ON HANDHELD REMOTE NOT CORRECT
Ensure transmitter was not recently stored in a different location (air-conditioned, heated) from that in which the hand held remote was
tested. It may take up to 3 hours for the temperature inside a packaged transmitter, and several minutes for an unpackaged transmitter
to equalize with room temperature.
FIREPLACE WILL NOT RESPOND IN “THERMO” MODE
Ensure hand held remote is within 20 ft. (6.096 m) operational range.
Make sure an ON or OFF command was not last sent from another transmitter. These commands will override thermal commands
from the handheld remote control. To return system to THERMO mode, press either ON or OFF on hand held remote, then press
MODE button to put system in THERMO mode. Press and hold SET button to change set temperature.
Verify set temperature on hand held remote is at least 2˚F (1˚C) above or below room temperature. The system will not react to
