IPI ELECTRONIC SYSTEM OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
5.25 vDC ELECTRONIC CONTROL vALvE
The electronic control valve system includes the ability to switch
the pilot from a standing pilot mode to an intermittent pilot mode.
•
IPI Mode
- In the Intermittent Pilot mode, when the unit is
turned ON, it will cause spark to the pilot, light the pilot,
then allow the burner to light. When the unit is turned to
OFF, both the burner and pilot will be OFF.
•
CPI Mode
- In the Continuous Pilot mode, the pilot re-
mains ON continuously even when the burner is turned
OFF.
NOTE:
A small pilot selector switch is located on the module tray
that is used to switch from IPI (left position) to the CPI (right posi
-
tion).
See Figure 50.
When the unit is turned to ON, the electrical current will energize
a spark to the pilot igniter. Once the pilot sensor heats up (after a
few seconds), the valve will be energized, allowing gas to flow to
the burner.
1. Follow the SAFETY and LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS for In-
termittent Pilot controls found in this manual, and on labels
found in the control compartment located in the lower cavity
of the appliance.
2. During the operating season (or in power outage periods), it is
recommended that the pilot remain in the CPI (standing pilot
mode) to reduce cold start issues, and/or conserve battery
backup power during a power outage.
3. The gas valve has inlet and outlet pressure taps as shown in
Figure 50.
Refer to page 9 for gas pressure requirements.
NOTE:
The gas control has a manual HI/LO flame adjustment
knob (regulator) that allows you to increase or decrease the height
of the burner flame.
See Figure 50.
Rotate the HI/LO knob coun-
terclockwise to “HI” to increase the flame height, and clockwise to
“LO” to decrease the flame height.
OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROLS
Optional remote controls are available for use with this appliance.
It is recommended that the remote receiver be placed either in a
wall outlet box with extended wiring, on the fireplace hearth, be
-
hind the left side surround panel, or in the control compartment
area as far forward in the fireplace as possible.
The placement options for the remote receiver are given to allow
flexibility, however battery life will be extended when the receiver
is placed in cooler areas.
To connect the remote receiver to the appliance, first disconnect
the ON/OFF switch wires from the white and green wire connec-
tors and connect the wires from the remote receiver to the green
and white wire connectors. See page 37.
Follow the instructions included with the remote control for pro-
gramming and other operational information.
