SYSTEM CHECK
MILLIVOLT VALVES
Light your gas appliance following the lighting instructions that came with the appliance. Conrm that the pilot ame is lit;
and the control knob on the gas valve is in the ON position.
• Slide the 3-position button on the remote receiver to the ON position. The main gas ame (i.e., the re) should ignite.
• Slide the button to OFF. The ame should extinguish (the pilot ame will remain on).
• Slide the button to REMOTE (the center position), then press the ON button on the transmitter to change the system
to ON. The main gas ame should ignite.
ELECTRONIC SPARK IGNITION VALVES
• Slide the 3-position button on the remote receiver to the ON position. The spark electrode should begin sparking to
ignite the pilot (the pilot may ignite after only one spark). After the pilot ame is lit, the main gas valve should open
and the main gas ame should ignite.
• Slide the button to OFF. The main gas ame and pilot ame should BOTH extinguish.
• Slide the button to REMOTE (the center position), then press the ON button on the transmitter to turn the system
to ON. The spark electrode should begin sparking to ignite the pilot. After the pilot is lit, the main gas valve should
open and the main gas ame should ignite.
GENERAL INFORMATION
LEARNING TRANSMITTER TO RECEIVER
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 ON
button and release. The receiver will emit several beeps indicating that the transmitter’s code has been accepted into the
receiver.
The microprocessor that controls the security code matching procedure is controlled by a timing function. If you are
unsuccessful in matching the security code on the rst attempt, wait 1-2 minutes before trying again – this delay allows
the microprocessor to reset its timer circuitry – and try up to two or three more times.
BATTERY LIFE
Life expectancy of the alkaline batteries in the transmitter should be at least 12 months. Check and replace all batteries
annually. When the transmitter no longer operates the remote 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. It is
important that the remote receiver batteries are fully charged and provides continuous output voltage of a least 5.3 volts.
The length of the wire between the remote receiver and gas valve directly affects the operating performance of the
remote system. The longer the wire, the more battery power is required to deliver signals between the remote receiver
and the gas valve. Recommended length is no longer than 20 feet. The transmitter should operate with as little as 5.3
volts battery power.
