The modes may be cycled in the order above by pressing the MODE Zone or the MODE/SET
Button. There will be a 2-second delay before the associated transmission is sent (the display will
be updated immediately).
MANUAL OFF Mode:
Transmits flame OFF command.
LCD Displays:
o MODE Zone: OFF is displayed
o ROOM TEMP Zone: Measured temperature is displayed
o SET TEMP Zone: Blank
o LIGHT Zone: LIGHT and light setting level is displayed
o FAN Zone: Blank
o TIME/PROG Zone: Current day indicator and current time is displayed
o AUX Zone: AUX and AUX setting is displayed
o FLAME Zone: Blank
MANUAL ON Mode:
Transmits flame ON command
LCD Displays:
o MODE Zone:
ON will flash (~0.5 seconds on & ~0.5 seconds off) for 15-seconds, then
ON will be displayed continuously.
o ROOM TEMP Zone: Measured temperature is displayed

THERMOSTAT Mode:
Will cycle flame on and off based on room and set temperatures. Will transmit ON
command if SET TEMP (+SWING) is higher than ROOM TEMP and will transmit OFF
command if SET TEMP (-SWING) is lower than ROOM TEMP.
Built-in thermostat will measure room temperature.
All programming should be written for deg. F and converted to deg. C when selected.
Temperatures may be displayed in degrees F (factory default) or degrees C. Press the UP
and DOWN Buttons simultaneously to change between degrees F and C.
SET TEMP: While in THERMOSTAT mode, press the UP or DOWN Button to change
the SET TEMP (45-90 deg. F, 7-32 deg. C); the new set temperature will automatically
be accepted after 2 seconds. The factory default SET TEMP is 68 deg. F.
SWING Temperature: This model does not allow for SWING temperature adjustment.
This model utilizes thermostatic flame modulation that will modulation the main flame
based on the difference between room temperature and set temperature (see example
below).
o Important - factory SWING TEMPERATURE setting is 2 degrees. The
thermostatic flame modulation feature will not allow this SWING to be changed.
EXAMPLE:
Set Temperature Room Temp. Flame Level
74F OFF
73F Level 1
Set Temperature (72) 72F Level 2
71F (or less) Level 3
Manual Flame Adjustment while in THERMOSTAT mode: If Flame-A is manually
adjusted while in thermostat mode, it will override the automatic flame setting until the
flame cycles off, then back ON thermostatically; when the flame cycles ON again,
automatic flame adjustment will resume. Automatic flame adjustment will also resume if
the operational mode is cycled out of, then back into THERMOSTAT mode or if the SET
temperature is changed.
