INTRODUCTION
This remote control system was developed to provide a safe, reliable, and user-friendly remote control system for gas heating
appliances. The system can be operated thermostatically or manually from the transmitter. The system operates on radio frequencies
(RF) within a 20-foot range using non-directional signals. The system operates 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 the TRANSMITTER section.This safety feature provides an extra margin of safety when
the transmitter is out of normal 20-foot operating range.

The transmitter operates on (2) AAA size 1.5DCV batteries. 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 1.5DCV batteries 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 in gure 2 (with similar numbers) will display.
Note: If a LOW battery icon appears on the screen,
check the position of the batteries.
CAUTION: 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 fteen minutes
for accurate temperature readings to appear.

The remote receiver operates on (4) AA-size 1.5V batteries.
It is recommended that ALKALINE batteries be used for
longer battery life and maximum microprocessor
performance. IMPORTANT: New or fully charged batteries
are essential for proper operation of the remote receiver.
The remote receiver houses the microprocessor that
responds to commands from the transmitter to control
system operation. It emits one beep when it receives an
ON or OFF command manually, but no beep when cycling
on and off automatically in THERMO mode. The remote
receiver has a 3-position slide switch for selecting the ON/
REMOTE/OFF mode of operation:
• With the slide switch in the ON position (toward the LEARN button), the system will remain ON until the slide
switch is placed in the OFF or REMOTE position.
• With the slide switch in the REMOTE position (centered), the system will only operate if the remote receiver
receives commands from the transmitter.
• With the slide switch in the OFF position (away from the LEARN button), the system is OFF.
• It is suggested that the slide switch be placed in the OFF position if you will be away from your home for an
extended period of time. If the remote receiver is mounted out of children’s reach, placing the slide switch in the
OFF position also functions as a safety “lock-out” by both turning the system off and rendering the remote receiver
inoperative.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The remote receiver can be Wall Mounted into a standard plastic switch box or (Hearth Mounted)placed on or near the
replace hearth. Determine where you will install the receiver before proceeding. Preferably, the remote receiver should
be wall-mounted in a plastic switch box, as this will protect its electronic components from both the heat produced by the
gas appliance and potential damage or abuse that can occur if it is left exposed on the hearth. PROTECTION FROM
EXTREME HEAT IS VERY IMPORTANT. Like any piece of electronic equipment the receiver should be kept away from
temperatures exceeding 130°F inside the receiver case. Battery life is also signicantly shortened if batteries are exposed
to high temperatures.
When installing the receiver into a switch box away from the appliance ensure the receiver switch is in the OFF position
before installing. The receiver comes standard with 18-inches of wire if additional wire is needed it is recommended that
18-gage stranded or solid wires (not included) be used to make connections between the terminal wiring block on the
millivolt gas valve or electronic module and the wire terminals on the remote receiver. For the best results, use 18-gage
stranded or solid wire, splice into the black wires of the receiver or remove the black wires and install wires directly to the
receiver. Be sure no splices measure longer than 20-feet and allow ample wire to remove the receiver for annual battery
replacement.
WALL MOUNTING
First, install (4) AA-size 1.5 ALKALINE batteries in the remote receiver (Fig 11). For best performance, remote receiver
batteries should be factory fresh when installed. The system operates best when battery output is greater than 5.3 volts.
Four (4) new AA batteries should provide an output voltage of 6.0 to 6.2 volts. Be sure batteries are installed with the
(+) and (-) ends facing the correct direction.
Next, attach wall mount cover plate to receiver box (Fig. 12):
Position the receiver as shown in the diagram to the left with lower tab on wall mount cover plate inserted into groove of
receiver. Move the receiver up and snap into top tab of cover plate.
Position the cover plate so the word ON is facing up (Fig. 13); then, install the remote receiver into the plastic switch box
using the two long screws provided. Push the slide button over the receiver slide switch only after making sure the remote
receiver has LEARNED the transmitter’s security code (see LEARNING TRANSMITTER TO RECEIVER).

NOTE: The remote receiver will only respond to the transmitter when the 3-position slide button on the remote receiver is
in the (middle) REMOTE position. If the system does not respond to the battery transmitter on initial use, see LEARNING
TRANSMITTER TO RECEIVER section, and re-check battery positions in the remote receiver.
HEARTH MOUNT
The remote receiver can be placed on the replace hearth or under the replace, behind the control access panel or
louvers. Position where the ambient temperature inside the receiver case does not exceed 130°F. NOTE: Slide Button
(included) is used for Hearth Mount applications.
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
A qualied electrician or a gas technician who is trained with gas appliances and gas valves that will be operated by this
remote should install the remote control system. Incorrect wiring connections WILL cause damage to the gas valve or
electronic module operating the gas appliance and may also damage the remote receiver.
WIRING MILLIVOLT VALVES
The remote receiver must be connected to the millivolt valve at the
TH & TH/TP (thermostat) terminals on the terminal block on the
millivolt gas valve. Connect 18-gage stranded or solid wires from
the remote receiver to the gas valve.
Operation of the remote receiver is similar to that of a thermostat in
that both turn the gas valve ON and OFF based on input signals. A
thermostat’s input signals are different temperatures. The remote
receiver’s input signals come from the transmitter.
Connect one black wire to the TH terminal and the other black wire to the TH/TP terminals on the millivolt gas valve.
Normally it does not matter which wires go to which terminal (Fig. 14).
WIRING ELECTRONIC SPARK IGNITIONS
The remote control receiver can be connected, in series, to
a 24VAC transformer to the TR (transformer) terminal on the
ELECTRONIC MODULE. Connect the hot wire from the 24VAC
transformer to either of the wire terminals on the remote receiver.
Connect another wire (not included) between the other receiver
wire terminal and the TH (thermostat) terminal on the
ELECTRONIC MODULE (Fig. 15).

LEARNING TRANSMITTER TO RECEIVER
Each transmitter uses a unique security code. It will be necessary to press the LEARN button on the receiver to accept
the transmitter security code upon initial use, if batteries are replaced, or if a replacement transmitter is purchased from
your dealer or the factory. In order for the receiver to accept the transmitter security code, be sure the slide button on
the receiver is in the REMOTE position; the receiver will not LEARN if the slide switch is in the ON or OFF position. The
LEARN button in located on the front face of the receiver; inside the small hole labeled LEARN. Using a small screw-
driver or end of a paperclip gently press and release the black LEARN button inside
the hole. When you release the LEARN button the receiver will emit an audible
“beep”. After the receiver emits the beep press the transmitter MODE button and
release. The receiver will emit several beeps indicating that the transmitter’s code has
been accepted into the receiver.
The microprocessor that controls the security code matching procedure is controlled
by a timing function. If you are unsuccessful in matching the security code on the rst
attempt, wait 1-2 minutes before trying again – this delay allows the microprocessor to
reset its timer circuitry – and try up to two or three more times.

manual setting the normal thermostatic cycle is overridden and the system ame will ignite. Place the SET temperature 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 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
REMOTE RECEIVER
The remote receiver houses the microprocessor that responds to commands from the transmitter to control the system
operation. It emits one beep when it receives an ON or OFF command manually, but no beep when cycling ON and OFF
automatically in THERMO mode. The remote receiver has a 3-position slide switch for selecting the MODE of operation:
ON/REMOTE/OFF
• With the slide switch in the ON position, the system will remain ON “manually” until the slide switch is placed in the OFF
or REMOTE position.
• With the slide switch in the REMOTE position (centered), the system will only operate if the remote receiver receives
commands from the transmitter.
• With the slide switch in the OFF position, the system is OFF.
• It is suggested that the slide switch be placed in the off position if you will be away from your home for an extended
period of time. If the remote receiver is mounted out of children’s reach, placing the slide switch in the OFF position
also functions as a safety “lock-out” by both turning the system off and rendering the remote receiver inoperative.

TRANSMITTER
TRANSMITTER OPERATING DISTANCE
The remote control operates on RF (radio frequency) signals that are sent by the TRANSMITTER (remote) to the
RECEIVER that operates the appliance. It is recommended that the TRANSMITTER always be located within the 20-foot
operating range, preferably in the same room in which the appliance is located.
THERMO UPDATING FEATURE –TRANSMITTER
This remote control has a THERMO UPDATING Feature built into its software. The THERMO UPDATING Feature
operates in the following manner, but only in the THERMO and PROGRAM modes.
The transmitter normally reads the ROOM temperature every 2 minutes; checking the ROOM temperature against the
SET temperature by sending a signal to the receiver.
IPH: RCL-S-STAT REV. 3-19-14 Page 7
GENERAL INFORMATION CONTINUED
COMMUNICATION – SAFETY – TRANSMITTER – (C/S – TX)
This series remote controls have a COMMUNICATION – SAFETY function built into the software. It provides an extra
margin of safety when the TRANSMITTER is out of the normal 20-foot operating range of the receiver.
The COMMUNICATION – SAFETY feature operates in the following manner for all OPERATING MODES: ON/THERMO/
OFF.
At all times and in all OPERATING MODES, the transmitter sends an RF signal every fteen (15) minutes, to the receiver,
indicating that the transmitter is within the normal operating range of 20-feet. Should the receiver NOT receive a
transmitter signal every 15 minutes, the IC software, in the RECEIVER will begin a 2-HOUR (120-minute) countdown
timing function. If during this 2-hour period, the receiver does not receive a signal from the transmitter, the receiver will
shut down the replace being controlled by the receiver. The RECEIVER will then emit a series of rapid “beeps” for a
period of 10 seconds. Then after 10 seconds of rapid beeping, the RECEIVER will continue to emit a single “beep” every
4 seconds until a transmitter signal is again received. The intermittent 4-second beeping will go on for as long as the
receiver’s batteries last which could be in excess of one year.
To “reset” the RECEIVER and operate the replace system, you must press the MODE button on the transmitter. The
word ON must display on the LCD screen. By turning the system to ON, the COMMUNICATION SAFETY operation is
overridden and the system will return to normal operation depending on the MODE selected at the transmitter.
The COMMUNICATION SAFETY feature will reactivate should the transmitter be taken out of the normal operating range
or should the transmitter’s batteries fail or be removed.

SETTING DESIRED ROOM TEMPERATURE
This remote control system can be thermostatically controlled
when the transmitter is in the THERMO mode (THERMO must
be displayed on the screen). To set the DESIRED room
temperature, press the MODE button (Fig. 17) to place the
transmitter into THERMO mode, then press the UP or DOWN
buttons to select the desired room temperature. The highest
SET temperature is 99º Fahrenheit (32º Celsius).
OPERATIONAL NOTE: TO CONSERVE BATTERY POWER,
CHANGES IN ROOM TEMPERATURE ARE AUTOMATICALLY
UPDATED EVERY TWO MINUTES TO THE TRANSMITTER.
ROOM
SET
Fig. 17 Mode Button Fig. 18 SET Temperature
The Thermo Mode 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. A smaller “swing number” increases the number of cycles so the room
temperature is more constant. A larger “swing number” decreases the number of cycles, which saves energy, in most
cases. The factory setting for the “swing number” is 2. This represents a temperature variation of +/- 2º F (1º C) between
SET temperature and ROOM temperature, which determines when the replace will be activated. The “SWING” number
values are: 1=+ 1º F (.5º C), 2= + 2º F (1º C) and 3 = + 3º F (1.6º C).
SETTING THE TEMPERATURE SWING (TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIAL)
ROOM

1. To change the temperature “SWING” setting (1-3), press
the TIMER/TIME and DOWN buttons simultaneously to
display the current “SWING” setting in the SET TEMP
frame. The letter “S” will display in the ROOM TEMP frame
on the LCD screen.
2. Press the UP or DOWN button to change the temperature
differential or “SWING” (1-3). See above for 1-3 “SWING”
temperature valves.
3. To store the “swing number press the SET button or allow
15-seconds to lapse, and the new “swing number’ will be
automatically programmed.
Fig. 19 Timer/Time & Down
Buttons Fig. 20 Swing Temperature
The operation of the factory set “THERMO SWING” can be checked by adjusting the SET TEMP 2º F above or below the
room temperature. This will cause the system to turn ON or OFF. Normally the system will only respond to temperature
changes every two minutes. Manually changing the SET temperature will activate the system in less than 10-seconds.
If the “SWING” is changed, then a new room temperature differential will respond. Remember the Factory setting of the
“SWING” temperature is 2º F.

FCC REQUIREMENTS
NOTE: THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE CAUSED BY
UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATIONS TO THIS EQUIPMENT. SUCH MODIFICATIONS COULD VOID THE USER’S
AUTHORITY TO OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT.
BATTERY LIFE
Life expectancy of alkaline batteries should be at least 12-months. Check and replace all batteries annually. When the
Transmitter no longer operates the receiver from a distance it did previously (i.e., the transmitter’s range has decreased)
or the remote receiver does not function at all, the batteries should be checked. It is important that the remote receiver
batteries are fully charged, providing a combined output voltage of at least 5.3 volts. The length of the wire between the
remote receiver and the gas valve directly affects the operating performance of the remote system. The longer the wire,
the more battery power is required to deliver signals between the remote receiver and the gas valve. The Transmitter
should operate with as little as 2.5 volts of battery power, measuring at the (2) 1.5-volt batteries.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Should you encounter problems with your replace system, the problem may be with the replace itself or it could be
with the remote control. Review the replace manufacturer’s operation manual to make sure all connections are properly
made. Then check the operation of the remote in the following manner:
1. Make sure receiver batteries are installed properly. If one battery is installed backward, receiver will not operate in
remote mode. Be sure battery output is 2.5 volts or more. (Slide switch is independent of battery condition.)
2. Be sure the transmitter’s batteries are properly installed and that the battery output is 2.5V or more.
3. Check to make sure the transmitter is communicating with the receiver.
• If the receiver beeps when the MODE button is depressed on the transmitter they are communicating.
Note: The receiver only beeps in ON & OFF modes. No beeping occurs from ON to Thermo mode.
• If the receiver does not beep when the MODE button is depressed on the transmitter, you will need to “learn”
(teach) the receiver the code of the transmitter. See page 5 Learning Transmitter to Receiver section.
4. Make sure the transmitter is within the 15 to 20-foot range of the receiver.
5. Positioning of the receiver is important. If the receiver is “enclosed” in a metal surround, the operation of the
receiver may be affected as noted below. Reposition the receiver to improve operating range. It is suggested that a
heat shield be installed to protect the receiver from extreme heat. If the receiver is “enclosed” in a metal surround, this
can:
• Cause the RF signal to get lost and not communicate with the receiver.
• Cause the working distance to be shorter than normal.
NOTE: A receiver located in an area, where the ambient temperature inside the case exceeds 130°F, will cause
THERMO-SAFETY feature to activate, requiring you to reposition the receiver to stop the warning beeps, and to “reset”
the receiver’s operation.
