Touch-Screen LCD and Button Layout

The diagram illustrates the layout of the remote control's touch-screen LCD and buttons. The LCD is divided into several zones: MODE Zone, ROOM TEMP Zone, SET TEMP Zone, TIME/PROG Zone, LIGHT Zone, FLAME Zone, AUX Zone, and FAN Zone. Key buttons are identified as MODE/SET, UP Button, and DOWN Button. The screen displays operational status such as "ON THERMO OFF", "Cont. Pilot", current room temperature, set temperature, program settings (P1, P2), time (AM/PM), and indicators for AUX and FAN. Labels on the right side of the diagram point to each specific zone on the LCD screen.

Learn Process (Pairing the Remote to the Control Module)

Note: The transmitter must be in the "OFF" or "THERMO OFF" mode to pair with the control module.

• To pair, press and release the learn switch on the control module. An audible beep indicates readiness.
• Within 60 seconds, press the MODE/SET button twice on the transmitter to send a signal. The "MODE/SET" button must be pressed once to activate the screen (lights up) and then a second time for pairing.
• If the signal is received, the module will beep. The module remains "Open" for 60 seconds after the learn switch is pressed.
• The control module can learn up to 3 different transmitter security codes (only one can be thermostat style).
• Security codes are retained indefinitely if power is removed.
• To clear all transmitter security codes, press and hold the learn switch for 6 seconds. Three series of beeps will be heard, confirming memory clearance. Repeat the learn process as needed.

THERMOSTAT Mode

• Cycles flame ON/OFF based on room and set temperatures. Transmits ON command if SET TEMP (+SWING) > ROOM TEMP, and OFF command if SET TEMP (-SWING) < ROOM TEMP.
• The built-in thermostat measures room temperature.
• Programming is written for deg. F and converted to deg. C when selected.
• Temperatures can be displayed in degrees F (factory default) or degrees C. Press UP and DOWN Buttons simultaneously to switch between F and C.
• SET TEMP: In THERMOSTAT mode, press UP or DOWN to change SET TEMP (45-90°F / 7-32°C). The new setting is accepted after 2 seconds. Factory default is 68°F.
• SWING Temperature: This model does not allow SWING temperature adjustment. It uses thermostatic flame modulation based on the difference between room and set temperature. The factory SWING TEMPERATURE setting is 2 degrees, and this feature cannot be changed.

EXAMPLE:

• Manual Flame Adjustment in THERMOSTAT mode: If Flame-A is manually adjusted, it overrides the automatic setting until the flame cycles off, then back on thermostatically. Automatic adjustment resumes when the flame cycles ON again, or if the operational mode is cycled, or if the SET temperature is changed.

Error Codes

• Ignition Safety (Protection for Ignition system):
  • Error Code: One short beep (~0.2 seconds) every one-second.
  • Description of Fault: Pilot is not successfully ignited within the trial period.
  • Action: The control will operate the step motor in the gas valve to the OFF position.
  • How to Clear: Press OFF button.
• Recycle Safety (Protection for Unstable Pilot):
  • Error Code: Two short beeps every one-second.
  • Description of Fault: Automatic Recycle - Pilot is proven and lost 3-times within 2-minutes without multiple ON/OFF commands. Manual Recycle – Ignition sequence is initiated 6-times within 2-minutes.
  • Action: The control will operate the step motor in the gas valve to the OFF position.
  • How to Clear: After 5-minutes has elapsed (5-minute internal timer expires), the module must see the mode/switch in the OFF position. Once the module sees the mode/switch in the OFF position after the 5-minutes has elapsed, it will stop beeping and accept normal operation. Alternatively, remove power to the module for approximately 30-seconds (until internal circuits discharge) and then re-apply power.
• Sensor Safety (Protection for Flame sensor):
  • Error Code: 4 Short beeps every one-second (Constant beeping).
  • Description of Fault: Pilot flame sensor voltage is too high (>FLAME=FALSE threshold) when ignition sequence is initiated. Also occurs if ground circuit is not properly connected (including ground from pilot assembly or ground integral to valve's motor connection).
  • Action: The control will operate the step motor in the gas valve to the OFF position.
  • How to Clear: Press OFF button.
• Thermal Safety (Overheat Protection):
  • Error Code: 4 Short beeps every 2-seconds.
  • Description of Fault: Internal temperature has exceeded 170 degrees F.
  • Action: The module will operate the step motor in the gas valve to the OFF position.
  • How to Clear: Module's internal temperature must cool to below 160 deg. F and then press OFF button.
• Communication Safety: (Note: This feature is only available when transmitter includes an LCD screen).
  • Error Code: One short beep every 4-seconds.
  • Description of Fault: Transmitter and receiver are not communicating properly. Control monitors RF transmissions for a communication safety signal (expected every 15-minutes). If the signal is not received within 15-minutes, a 2-hour countdown begins. If no other RF transmissions are received before the countdown expires, the control will enter Communication Safety fault.
  • Action: The module will operate the step motor in the gas valve to the OFF position.
  • How to Clear: Control must receive a subsequent transmission from the remote control or a command from the on-board ON/OFF switch.
