Operational Notes:
The Thermostatic feature on the transmitter operates the appliance whenever the ROOM TEMPERATURE varies a
certain number of degrees from the SET TEMPERATURE. This variation is called the “SWING” or TEMPERATURE
DIFFERENTIAL. The normal operating cycle of an appliance may be 2-4 times per hour depending on how well the
room or home is insulated from the cold or drafts. The factory setting for the “swing number” is 2. This represents a
temperature variation of +/- 2° F (1° C) between SET temperature and ROOM temperature, which determines when
the fireplace will be activated. This function is pre-set at the factory.
The transmitter has ON and OFF manual functions that are activated by pressing either button on the face of the
transmitter. When a button on the transmitter is pressed the word “ON” or “OF” will appear on the LCD screen to show
while the signal is being sent. Upon initial use, there may be a delay of three seconds before the remote receiver will
respond to the transmitter. This is part of the system’s design.
NOTE: The fireplace receiver will only respond to the transmitter when the 2-position slide button on the module is
in the REMOTE position. If the system does not respond to the battery transmitter on initial use, refer to MATCHING
SECURITY CODES, and recheck battery positions in the remote receiver.
Thermostatic Updating Feature
This remote control has a THERMOSTATIC UPDATING feature built into its software. The THERMOSTATIC UPDAT-
ING feature operates in the following manner, while in the THERMOSTATIC mode.
The transmitter reads the ROOM temperature every 2 minutes checking the ROOM temperature against the SET
temperature and then sends a signal to the receiver.
