Home Automation Operation:
Relay closed
The fireplace will start in a medium setting until the remote control talks to the fireplace and
picks up the ‘ON’ signal (which can take up to 4 minutes). Once the remote has communicated
with the fireplace it will turn on and begin operating thermostatically. The remote will
use whatever temperature the user has previously set and cannot be altered by the home
automation system. The fireplace will continue to operate while the relay is closed.
Note: If the fireplace cannot communicate with the remote controller within 10 minutes of the relay
contact closure then the fireplace will shut down and return to standby. The remote controller is
required to be operating within range of the fireplace for its safe operation.
Relay open
If the fireplace is operating with a closed relay then, upon opening the relay contacts, the
fireplace will shut down and return the remote controller to its standby mode when it next
updates (which can take up to 4 minutes). While the relay is open the fireplace will be in standby
mode and available for manual operation by the user.
