LATCHING SOLENOID VALVE, MANUALLY OR WITH A THERMOSTAT FUNCTION

IF YOU CANNOT READ OR UNDERSTAND THESE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL OR OPERATE

INTRODUCTION

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-feet range using non-directional signals. The system operates on one of 1,048,576 security codes that

are programmed into the transmitter at the factory; the remote receiver’s code must be matched to that of the transmitter

prior to initial use.

Review COMMUNICATION SAFETY under GENERAL INFORMATION section. This safety feature shuts

down the appliance when a potentially unsafe condition exists.

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

control to power a latching solenoid such as those used with gas valves

used in some heater rated gas logs, gas replaces and other gas heating

appliances.

The solenoid circuit uses the battery power from the receiver to operate

a solenoid. The circuit has reversing polarity software which reverses

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

to drive a latching solenoid ON/OFF. The SYSTEM is controlled by the

remote transmitter.

The transmitter operates on a (2) 1.5V AAA batteries.

It is recommended that ALKALINE batteries always be used for longer

battery life and maximum operational performance.

Before using the transmitter, install the (2) AAA transmitter batteries into

the battery compartment. (Use caution that batteries are installed in the

proper direction)

BUTTON SETTINGS

1. ON - Operates unit to on position, Manually operated solenoid ON.

2. OFF- Operates unit to off position, Manually operated solenoid OFF.

3. MODE - Changes unit from manual mode to thermo mode.

4. SET- Sets temperature in thermo mode.

NOTE: This product is designed for use with an attended hearth appliance or re feature. Adults must be present when

the Control System is operating. DO NOT program or thermostatically set this Control to operate a hearth appliance

or re feature when Adults are not physically present. Furthermore, DO NOT leave the hearth appliance or re feature

burning unattended; it may cause damage or serious injury. If an Adult is going to be away from the hearth appliance or

re feature for any length of time, then the handheld/wall mount, receiver/control module and application should be in the

“OFF” position.

OPERATIONAL NOTES The Thermo 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.

RECEIVER FUNCTIONS: • • • • • • With the slide switch in the REMOTE position, the system will only operate if the remote receiver receives commands from the transmitter. Upon initial use or after an extended period of no use, the ON button may have to be pressed for up to three seconds before activating servo motor. If the system does not respond to the transmitter on initial use, see LEARNING TRANSMITTER TO RECEIVER. With the slide switch in the ON position you can manually turn ON the system.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS Make sure the remote receiver switch is in the OFF position. For best results it is recommended that 18 gauge stranded wires should be used to make connections and no longer than 20-feet. This CON1001 TH remote receiver is to be connected to a manual valve with a latching ON/OFF solenoid. Connect two 18 gauge stranded or solid wires from the remote receiver terminals to the latching solenoid.
