INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

INTRODUCTION

This SUPER STAR remote control transmitter was developed to convert a standard SUPER STAR ON/OFF remote control systems

Models 1001, 1001D, 1410, 1315, and 1315G to a ON/OFF/THERMO remote control systems for use on heater rated gas heating

appliances. Its battery operation allows the system to operate independently of household current. The system operates on radio

frequencies with non-directional signals. The SYSTEMS operating range is approximately 20 feet. The system operates on one of 255

security codes which can be set on the transmitter.

The transmitter operates on (2) AAA-size 1.5V batteries and (1) 12V battery. It is

recommended that ALKALINE batteries always be used for longer battery life and maximum

operational performance. IMPORTANT: New or fully charged batteries are essential for

proper operation of the multi-function transmitter. Insert (2) AAA-size 1.5 V batteries and (1)

12V battery into the battery compartment on the back of the transmitter, positioning the (+)

and (-) ends

of the batteries as indicated on the casing. When

the batteries are inserted, the screen at right

(with similar numbers) will display.

Note: If a LOW battery icon appears on the screen,

check the position of the batteries; a reversed

battery will activate the LOW battery icon.

Note: Due to the sensitive temperature-monitoring

components in the transmitter, it may be necessary to

allow the transmitter to stabilize to room temperature

before accurate room temperatures are displayed on

the screen. If the transmitter is activated from a severe

cold condition, it can take up to fifteen minutes for

accurate temperature readings to appear.

1. LOW- Battery power is low. Replace batteries within two weeks.

2. TIMER- Indicates time remaining before system shuts off, when timer-programmed; 9-

hour maximum setting.

3. MODE- Indicates operation MODE of system. ON indicates the system is on, either

manually or thermostatically. THERMO indicates the system will automatically cycle

on/off, depending on programmed SET temperature. OFF indicates the entire system is

turned off.

4. SET- Indicates desire SET room temperature for THERMO operation

5. FLAME – Indicates burner/valve in operation.

6. CLOCK – Indicates the current time in AM/PM

7. ROOM – Indicates CURRENT room temperature.

F indicates degrees Fahrenheit (

C indicates degrees Celsius).

FUNCTIONS

To operate the system, press the MODE button on the transmitter to select the operational

MODE desired.

• ON indicates the system is on, either manually, timed or thermostatically

• THERMO indicates the system will automatically cycle ON/OFF, depending on

• programmed set temperature.

• OFF indicates the entire system is turned off.

BUTTON SETTINGS TIMER Flip open the plastic cover on the front of the transmitter to expose the “SET” buttons. The flip cover protects the SET buttons from being changed accidentally. Close the cover after completing the following settings/ programming. MODE UP DOWN SET Flashing numbers on the display indicate the system is awaiting user input, such as using the UP and DOWN buttons to program a new setting.

OPERATIONAL NOTE: When the timer is used in the THERMO mode, the THERMO operation will discontinue when the “time” has expired. LOW/BATTERY INDICATOR L O W ON OFF THERMO TIMER ROOM The word LOW outlined by a battery on the left side of the LCD screen will appear when battery power has dropped significantly. At this time, approximately two weeks of battery power remains until the transmitter may experience partial or complete loss of functions.

SYSTEM CHECK MILLIVOLT VALVES Light your gas appliance following the lighting instructions that came with the appliance. Confirm that the pilot flame is on; it must be in operation for the main gas valve to operate. • • • • • Slide the 3-position button on the remote receiver to the ON position. The main gas flame (i.e., the fire) should ignite. Slide the button to OFF. The flame should extinguish (the pilot flame will remain on).

TROUBLE SHOOTING If you encounter problems with your fireplace system, the problem may be with the fireplace itself or it could be with the SKYTECH remote. Review the fireplace manufacturer’s operation manual to make sure all connections are properly made. Then check the operation of the SKYTECH remote in the following manner: • Make sure the batteries are correctly installed in the RECEIVER. One reversed battery will keep receiver from operating properly.
