DANGER

Risk of Explosion 

DO NOT

 cycle the ON/OFF/REM selector 

switch more than one time within a five minute 

period.  Gas may accumulate in firebox.  Call 

a qualified service technician.

4.  An IFT-ECM reset is required if the module is in a 

lock-out condition.  When this occurs, the appliance 

is shut down and the IFT-ECM status indicator LED 

will be blinking a RED/GREEN error code along with a 

one-time audible double- beep.  If the IFT-ECM is in a 

lock-out condition, refer to the troubleshooting chart to 

interpret the error code and take corrective action as 

required.  To reset the IFT-ECM after a lock-out error

CAUTION! 

Risk of burns! 

Appliance surfaces are hot 

when operating and during cool down. Use care and 
wear gloves when opening the front and accessing com-
ponents inside the appliance.

 

       -  Be aware the appliance may be HOT, use  
          care in accessing the IFT-ECM. 

 
       -  Set the IFT-ECM 3-position selector switch to        
          OFF position. 

 

This model is shipped from the factory equipped with the 
IFT-RC400 remote. 

1.  The Electronic Control Module (IFT-ECM) has a 

three-position ON/OFF/REMOTE selector switch 
that must be set for proper operation. See Figure 
3.6.  When changing switch positions, it is important 
to pause in each position for 1-2 seconds. 

 
OFF Position:   

 
The appliance will not respond to any commands 
from a wired wall switch, IFT-RC150  or IFT-RC400 
remote controls.  The unit should be in the OFF 
position during service, fuel conversion, and to 
reset the IFT-ECM in the event the system goes 
into a LOCK-OUT mode as the result of a system 
error.  When switched to the OFF position while the 
appliance is operating, the system will shut down. 

 
ON  Position:   

 
The  appliance  will  ignite  and  run continuously at 

the HI flame setting.  No adjustment in flame height 

is possible.  
 
Remote Position:   

 
The remote position allows operation of the 
appliance from a wired wall switch, IFT-RC400 or 
IFT-RC150 remote controls.  The IFT-ECM switch 
must be in this position to pair the IFT-ECM with the 
IFT-ACM (if installed), and/or IFT-RC400 and IFT-
RC150 remote controls.  See the IFT-RC400 or IFT-
RC150 installation manual for detailed instructions 
on pairing the IFT-ECM with the remote controls. 
After successfully pairing a IFT-RC400, all installed 
accessories can be controlled by the IFT-RC400 
(see IFT-RC400 user manual).  The  RC150 allows 

the user to turn ON/OFF the flame in the appliance 

and activate the Cold Climate mode if desired.  The 
IFT-ECM has a safety feature that will automatically 

shut down the fireplace after 9 hours of continuous 

operation without receiving a command from the 
IFT-RC400 or IFT-RC150. 

2.  If multiple control options are installed, the IFT-ECM 

will respond to the last command from the wired wall 
switch, IFT-RC400 or IFT-RC150.  The wired wall 
switch is NOT available if a Power Vent is used.

The IFT-ECM has a safety feature that will 

automatically  shut  down  the  fireplace  after 

9 hours of continuous operation in the ON 
position, except when operated in active 
thermostat mode.  

3.  The Pilot button on the IFT-ECM activates the Cold 

Climate function of the fireplace.  This function lights 

the pilot flame ONLY to provide enough heat in the 

firebox to reduce condensation in cool, high humidity 

ambient conditions.  To activate the Cold Climate 
press and hold the Pilot button for one second and  

release.  The IFT-ECM will flash two green LED blinks, 

 

beep twice and light and rectify the pilot flame when 

 

pressed to activate.  To turn off Cold Climate, press 

 

and hold the Pilot button for one second and release.   

The IFT-ECM will flash one green LED blink, beep once 

 

and shut down the pilot flame.  If remote controls are 

 

paired with the IFT-ECM, this feature can also be  
activated with the IFT-RC400 and/or IFT-RC150.
