This is a single functioning wireless remote control system for

operating gas valves with ON/OFF latching solenoids

This remote control system was developed to provide a safe, reliable, and user-friendly remote control system for gas

heating appliances. The system is operated manually from the transmitter. The system operates on radio frequencies

(RF) within a 20-foot range using non-directional signals. The system operates on one of 255 security codes that are

programmed into the transmitter at the factory; the remote receiver must learn the transmitter code prior to initial use.

This remote control SYSTEM offers the user a battery-operated remote

control to power a ON/OFF latching solenoid such as those used with gas

valves used in some decorative gas logs, gas replaces and other gas

heating appliances.

The circuit uses the battery power from the receiver to operate a latching

solenoid. The circuit has reversing polarity software which reverses the

positive (+) and negative (-) output of the receiver’s battery power to drive

solenoid (ON/OFF FLAME) or open/close. The SYSTEM is controlled by

the remote transmitter.

The transmitter operates on a 12V battery made specically for remote

controls and electronic lighters. Before using the transmitter install the

12-volt (A-23) battery in the battery compartment.

It is recommended that ALKALINE batteries always be used for longer

battery life and maximum operational performance.

The transmitter has ON and OFF functions that are activated by

pressing either button on the face of the transmitter. When a button on

the transmitter is pressed, a signal light on the transmitter illuminates to

verify that a 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. If the signal light does not illuminate,

check the position of the transmitter’s battery.

POWER SETTING - CON 1001

The electronics in the remote control system have the capability of “powering” two different types of DC-powered

components. If any operational problems accure contact Skytech Systems, Inc.

The RECEIVER comes from the factory programmed to provide pulse DC voltage (5.5) VDC to 6.3 VDC) to a latching

solenoid.

REMOTE RECEIVER Slide OFF REMOTE Switch The remote receiver (right) operates on four 1.5V AA-size ON batteries. It is recommended that ALKALINE batteries be used REMOTE for longer battery life and maximum microprocessor OFF performance. IMPORTANT: New or fully charged batteries are essential to proper operation of the remote receiver as a latching solenoid power consumption is substantially higher than standard remote control systems.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS CONNECTING THE RECEIVER TO A VALVE WITH THE LATCHING SOLENOID 1. Connect the BLACK 18 gage stranded wire with the 1/4’ female terminal from the receiver to the BLACK wire with the 1/4” male terminals from the valve solenoid. 2. Connect the RED 18 gage stranded wire with the 1/4’ female terminal from the receiver to the RED wire with the 1/4” male terminals from the valve solenoid. 3.

OPERATION 1. This remote control will operate the gas valves latching solenoid to open the gas flow to full ON. 2. When the ON button is depressed the transmitter sends a RF signal to the receiver. The receiver then sends a pulse of 6-volts of power to the solenoid. The solenoid then opens the gas flow to the burner then to full ON. 3. When the OFF button is depressed the transmitter sends a RF signal to the receiver. The receiver then sends a pulse of 6- volts of power to the solenoid.
