WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
A qualied 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 and TH/TP (outside terminals) on the terminal block
on the millivolt gas valve. Connect 18 gauge solid or strand
wire from the remote receiver to the gas valve.

RECEIVER
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 from the receiver to the TH &
TH/TP 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, they are not polarity sensitive.
WIRING ELECTRONIC SPARK IGNITION VALVES
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 (included) between the other receiver
wire terminal and the TH (thermostat) terminal on the
ELECTRONIC MODULE.
