2. Setup & Installation
Before beginning installation, ensure your gas fireplace or log set is compatible with a millivolt valve system. Look for terminals labeled 'TH', 'TP', and 'TH/TP' on your fireplace's control valve. It is recommended to replace both the remote control and the signal receiver simultaneously for optimal performance, as different brands may use different communication protocols.
2.1. Battery Installation
The receiver unit requires four (4) AA batteries, and the remote control requires two (2) AAA batteries. Ensure batteries are inserted with correct polarity.

2.2. Wiring to Fireplace
Connect the two terminals of the receiver to the 'TH' and 'TH/TP' terminals of your fireplace's millivolt valve. Ensure all connections are secure and follow your fireplace manufacturer's guidelines for safe wiring.
