Wireless Fireplace Switch Installation GuideSupported Models    C4-FS1-Z Wireless Fireplace SwitchSpecifi cations and Supported FixturesThis Control4® Wireless Fireplace Switch operates independently or as part of a Control4 Home-Automation System to enable intelligent control of a gas fi replace. It installs in a standard wall box using typical wiring standards and communicates with other devices through a wireless RF (radio frequency) connection.Power: 120 VAC +/-10%  50/60 Hz300 mW when off400 mW when onSupported Load Types and Ratings:This device requires a neutral AC connection.- Millivolt Low Voltage Control- 24VAC at 240W- 30 V DC at 10AOperating Temperature: All load ratings are based on an ambient temperature of 25 degrees Celsius.Volume: 5.0 Cubic inchesCommunications: ZigBee, IEEE 802.15.4, 2.4 GHz, 15-channel, spread spectrum radioWarnings and ConsiderationsWARNING! Install in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.WARNING! Improper use or installation can cause SERIOUS INJURY, DEATH or LOSS/DAMAGE OF PROPERTY.WARNING! If you are unsure about any part of these instructions, consult a qualifi ed electrician.WARNING! Use this device only with copper or copper clad wire. This prod-uct has NOT been approved for use with Aluminum wiring.WARNING! Do not connect any gas valve or electronic device directly to the 110 to 120VAC power. Refer to your gas appliance’s instructions and wiring diagrams for proper placement of wires. All electronic devices must be wired according to their manufacturer’s instructions.IMPORTANT! Use or modifi cation of this product in a manner not expressly approved by Control4 voids your warranty. Further, Control4 is NOT liable for any damage incurred with the misuse of this product. See “Limited 2 Year Warranty.”IMPORTANT! The range and performance of the wireless control system is highly dependent on the following: (1) distance between devices; (2) layout of the home; (3) walls separating devices; and (4) electrical equipment located near devices.b.  If you are installing in a multi-gang scenario, partially tighten the mounting screws, leaving 1/8-inch gap between the wall and the yoke plates prior to attaching the black plastic sub-plate. This allows each device in a multi-gang scenario to conform to the sub-plate, creating a single assembly. Secure the multi-gang sub-plate to all devices using the provided sub-plate screws. Then secure the assembly by tightening the wall box screws the remaining 1/8-inch. Do not over-tighten the screws, or you will misalign the fl at plane of the multi-gang wall plate.With the wall plate’s removal slot facing down, push the wall plate onto the Fireplace Switch’s black plastic sub-plate.c. 7.  If you are using a Decora-style screw-on wall plate:a. b.c.Do not attach the Fireplace Switch’s black plastic sub-plateAlign the fi replace switch to the wall box and fasten with screws.Fasten the wall plate to the Fireplace Switch with screws.8. 9.Turn ON power at the circuit breaker or replace fuse from fuse box.Test the Fireplace Switch to see if it is working properly. See “Operation and Confi guration” for specifi c instructions.TroubleshootingIf the fi replace does not turn on:•  Ensure at least one LED on the face of the switch is lit.•  Ensure that the fi replace pilot light is on or the fi replace is in a mode ready to be turned on (refer to the manufacturer’s fi replace documentation).•  Ensure circuit breaker is not turned OFF or tripped.•  Check for proper wiring.•  For help on the installation or operation of this product, email or call the Control4 Technical Support Center. Please provide your exact model number. Contact sup-port@control4.com or see the web site www.control4.com.Fireplace Safety InstructionsWARNING!  This Fireplace Switch is intended for installation in standard wall-mounted switching locations. Do no install this Switch inside the fi replace housing or in areas of excessive heat.IMPORTANT!  This Fireplace Switch should be installed by a qualifi ed electri-cian or a gas technician who is familiar with gas appliances and gas valves. Incorrect wiring connections will cause damage to the gas valve,  electonic module, and/or Fireplace Switch that operates the gas appliance.Installation InstructionsWARNING! In accordance with the National Electric Code (NEC) requirements.  •  The wires entering the wall box from the 24V or mili-volt system fi replace (low-voltage wiring) must either have a UL rating for 600V or have a protective, non-conductive sleeve/tubing which provides 600V insulation.•  Control4 recommends that the low-voltage wiring enter the wall box through a different opening than the high-voltage wiring.•  Control4 recommends that good wiring practices be observed when install-ing the device to keep good separation between low and high-voltage wires within the wall box.TURN OFF POWER by switching off the circuit breaker or removing the fuse and test that power is off before wiring!Identify your wiring application (refer to the appropriate diagram  on the back page). “Single-Pole (with power source at wall box)Prepare the wires by removing the pre-cut insulation from the appropriate Fireplace Switch leads. Wire insulation should be stripped back 5/8 of an inch from the wire end (as shown).WARNING! Orange wires are only to be used in low-voltage switching. Do not connect them to 120V sources or any loads outside the supported types and ratings.1.2.3.4. Connect the Fireplace Switch wires to the wall box wires using wire nuts according to the relevant wiring diagram. See “Sample Wiring Confi guration.”5.  Mount fi replace switch into wall box by partially securing the wall box screws attached to the fi replace switch. Ensure that the word “Top” on the fi replace switch frame is facing up. Bend wires in a zigzag pattern so that they easily fold into the wall box.WARNING! Ground the Wireless Fireplace Switch in accordance with the National Electric Code (NEC) requirements. Although the fi replace switch’s aluminum yoke plate and green ground wire are directly bonded together inside the fi replace switch, DO NOT rely solely upon the yoke plate’s contact with a metal wall box for adequate grounding. Use the fi replace switch’s ground wire to make a secure connection to the safety ground of the electrical system.IMPORTANT! Not grounding this product according to the preceding may result in an installation less immune to damage caused by electrical disturbances, such as lightning, and void the warranty.6.  If you are using the Control4 push-on (screw-less) wall plate that shipped with your Fireplace Switch:a.  For a single-gang scenario, attach the black plastic sub-plate using the provided sub-plate screws.IMPORTANT! Tighten the screws until the back side of the metal yoke plate is even with the wall surface, but no farther. Over-tightening can damage the fi re-place switch and cause mechanical malfunction. Do NOT use a power screw driver to install this device as this may lead to over-tightening.Sample Wiring Confi gurationSingle-Location Scenario—Power Source at Wall Box   NOTE: This device will not function without a neutral AC connection.To wire the Fireplace Switch  for a Control4 single-location scenario in which the power is fi rst routed to the wallbox, connect together and cap with a wire nut the wires indicated in the following table:   Fireplace Switch Wires Wires in the Wall BoxFrom Power Source To FireplaceWhite (neutral) White (neutral) NoneOrange (load) None White (load)Orange (load) None Black (load)Black (hot) Black (hot) NoneGreen (ground) Green (ground) Green (ground-optional)WARNING!
