5. Setup è Installazione
5.1 Installazione di batterie
Batteries are not included in the kit and must be purchased separately.
Figure 5.1: Battery requirements for the remote and receiver.
- Control remoto: Requires 2 AAA batteries. Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote and insert the batteries, observing correct polarity.
- Ricevitore: Requires 4 AA batteries. Open the battery compartment on the receiver box and insert the batteries, observing correct polarity.
5.2 Receiver Wiring to Millivolt Valve
This system is designed for millivolt gas valve systems. It functions as an on/off switch and connects to the TH and TH/TP terminals of your millivolt valve.
Figure 5.2: Connecting the receiver to the millivolt gas valve.
- Ensure the gas supply to the fireplace is turned off before beginning installation.
- Locate the millivolt valve on your gas fireplace. Identify the TH and TH/TP terminals.
- Connect the two wires from the receiver to the TH and TH/TP terminals of the millivolt valve. The connection is non-polarized, so the order of the wires does not matter.
- Mount the receiver box in a suitable location, either inside the fireplace control area or on a wall using the provided wall plate and screws. Ensure it is away from direct heat.
- Restore the gas supply to the fireplace.
