SYSTEM CHECK
MILLIVOLT VALVES - ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEMS – OTHER APPLIANCES
Light your gas appliance following the lighting instructions that came with the appliance. Conrm that the pilot ame is
ON; it must be in operation for the main gas valve to operate, if you have an electronic ignition system check the power
source as well.
• Press the ON button on the TS-3 to turn the system to ON manually. The main ame should come ON.
• Press the OFF button on the TS-3 to turn the system to OFF manually. The main ame should extinguish (the pilot
ame will remain on if you are using a millivolt gas valve system).
• Press the SET button on the TS-3 to change the system to THERMO. Hold the SET button to set the temperature on
the TS-3 to a temperature of a least 2°F (1°C) above the ROOM temperature displayed on the LCD screen. With this
manual setting, the normal thermostatic cycle is overridden and the system ame will ignite. Set the SET temperature
to at least 2°F (1°C) below the room temperature and the system ame will extinguish in a few seconds. Thereafter, it
should continue to cycle to ON and OFF thermostatically approximately every two minutes as the ROOM temperature
changes, but only when the temperature differential between ROOM and SET temperatures differ at least 2°F (1°C).
The 2°F differential is the factory setting.
GENERAL INFORMATION
BATTERY LIFE
Life expectancy of lithium button cell batteries in the TS-3 should be at least (1) season (8) months. Check and replace
both batteries annually.. The TS-3 should operate with as little as 2.4 volts of battery power, measuring at each of the
3-volt button cell batteries.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Should you encounter problems with your appliance system, the problem may be with the appliance itself or it could be
with the TS-3 wired wall thermostat. Review the appliance manufacturer’s operation manual to make sure all connections
are properly made. Then check the operation of the TS-3 in the following manner:
1. Be sure the TS-3’s batteries are properly installed and that the battery output is 2.4 volts on each battery or more. If
one battery is installed backward the wired wall thermostat will not operate.
2. The TS-3 has (2) 3 volt button cell batteries (1) button cell operates the LCD screen and the other button cell powers
the PCB board. If the button cell battery that controls sending the PCB board is low or defective the LCD screen may
work but the PCB relay may not close the contact (Check each button cell battery)
3. Check that the (2) male terminal connectors on the face are engaged in the female terminal connectors on the backing
plate.
4. Check the wire connections to the TS-3 from the appliance that they are properly connected
