Basic Heater Operation
Sunpak S34 TSR
is an outdoor gas-fired
infrared heater which is operated with a wireless
remote control. The heater can be operated at a
High setting with an input of 34,000 BTU/Hr or at a
LOW setting of 25,000 BTU/Hr. Each heater comes
with wireless operating remote controls that are
pre-programmed for that heater. The number
located on the louvered end of the heater
corresponds to the number on the remote control.
Should the original remote control become lost,
additional remote controls can be purchased.
However, the heater will need to be re-
programmed for the new remote control.
The Sunpak S34-TSR should always be started up and operated on the HIGH mode for the
first 5 minutes to allow the heater to warm up. Starting up the heater on the LOW mode before
the heater is warmed up may cause the heater to shut down prematurely. To correct this
situation press the OFF button followed by the ON button and the HI button. Always PRESS the
button for at least 1 second to allow proper transmission of the remote signal.

Sunpak heaters have a spark ignition and
electronic flame safety control. The pilot is
only ON while the heater is operating. If the
flame safety sensor fails to sense flame at the
pilot, the heater will shut down and lockout.
This may happen due to low gas pressure or a
gusty wind. Should the heater lockout you
may be able to hear a faint beeping from the
heater control. To restart the heater, first
press the OFF button before restarting the
heater.
Although these heaters are designed for
outdoor installation and use, it is important
that the wireless remote control(s) be
protected from the weather. Should the
remote control become wet, it may be
necessary to replace the control. Keep controls
out of reach of children
Each control has four buttons (ON OFF HI
LOW). The remote controls are powered by
batteries. The remote control has an
approximate 25 foot line of sight range. Weak
batteries can limit the effective range of
operation.

Trouble Shooting Remote Controls
Error Code: Reason Solution
Module has four “beeps” every one
second
Warns user that the pilot
flame sensor detects a pilot
flame already present when
ignition sequence is
initiated. This fault will also
occur if pilot flame sensor on
main control module is
shorted to ground
Adjust the sensor electrode to 3/16”
for the pilot hood and 3/8” from the
spark electrode. Make sure the
electrode is within the flame zone.
Four beeps every two seconds Warns users the module’s
internal temperature has
exceeded 170⁰ F. (77⁰ C.)

Each Sunpak TSR comes with wireless controls pre-programmed for individual heaters. If you have a
problem with the remotes, please review the following:
1. Make sure there is power to the unit through the 7.5 VDC plug-in power adapter.
2. Make sure you have the correct control for the heater. Each control is marked with a number
corresponding to the label located on the louver end of the heater.
3. Make sure you gently press the <ON> button for 1 full second to allow the control to respond.
4. Make sure the red indicator lights up while pressing the <ON> button. Replace batteries if
necessary.
5. Each heater comes with two wireless control devices. Try the other control device.
6. Press <OFF> to RESET system and then press <ON>. After a few seconds you should hear an
audible click from the control inside the heater and see a spark at the pilot behind the face grille.
If the above procedure fails to get results it may be necessary to re-program the heater control. The
diagram on page 3 of these instructions shows the location of the programming button inside the heater.
This button may be accessed through the port on the front panel of the heater. A small rod such as a bent
heavy duty paper clip or 1/8 inch pin will be necessary to reach the button.
The heater control communicates using a series of beeps. In a noisy environment these beeps may be
hard to hear. Though these beeps are helpful they are not necessary for programming the heater.
Programming Remote Control Devices
1. Select the wireless device you want the use with the heater.
2. Locate the learn button of the heater control as shown in the diagram on page 3. With the bent
paper clip, press and hold the learn button for 6 seconds before releasing.

3. Press and release the learn button on the heater control. Press the <ON> button on the wireless
device within 10 seconds. Make sure the remote’s red indicator light went on while pressing the
remote.
4. The heater should now recognize the wireless device.
a. Press the <OFF> button on the wireless device
b. Press the <ON> button
c. Press the <HI> button
d. Leave heater on HI for first 5 minutes
If the heater does not light, repeat procedure 4. It is likely that there is still air in the gas line. If the
heater fails to light or fails to stay lit after several tries, it may be necessary to purge the air from the gas
line using safe practices.
NOTE: Only 3 remote controls can be programed into the heater at one time. It may necessary to clear
the memory if a new device does not program properly. To clear the memory, hold the learn button in
for over 10 seconds. A series of beeps will indicate memory is cleared.
Sunpak Pilot
The two electrodes near the pilot provide for
flame ignition and sensing. It is important that
these electrodes be positioned properly.
•Electrodes should be located 3/16”from
the pilot hood and within the flame zone.
•Make sure that dirt, cobweb, or other
debris does not accumulate around pilot
burner.
