TROUBLE SHOOTING
If you encounter problems with your fireplace system, the problem may be with the fireplace itself or it could be with the 1001 TH
remote system. Review the fireplace manufacturer's operation manual to make sure all connections are properly made. Then check
the operation of the remote in the following manner:
•
Make sure the batteries are correctly installed in the RECEIVER. One reversed battery will keep receiver from operating properly.
• Check battery in TRANSMITTER to make sure contacts are touching (+) and (-) ends of battery. Bend metal contacts in for tighter
fit.
• Be sure RECEIVER and TRANSMITTER are within 20'-25' operating range.
• Keep RECEIVER from temperatures exceeding 130° F. Battery life shortened when ambient temperatures are above 115° F.
• If RECEIVER is installed in tightly enclosed metal surround, the operating distance will be shortened.
NOTE: A receiver located in an area, where the ambient temperature inside the case exceeds 130° F, will cause the THERMO-
SAFETY feature to cut in, requiring you to reposition the receiver to stop the warning beeps, and to "reset" the receiver's operation.
• Due to handling and shipping of the unit, handling or dropping of the transmitter by the customer, and/or heat conditions at the
receiver, some receivers may need an occasional frequency adjustment. This adjustment is made to improve the communication
and operating distance between the transmitter and the receiver. Follow the steps below for making the adjustment.
FREQUENCY (DISTANCE) ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE
RECEIVER ADJUSTMENT
1. To adjust at the receiver, use a small slotted screwdriver. Turn the adjustment (ADJ) screw counter-
clockwise about 5° or maximum of 1/8 turn. This should correct the distance problem.
2. If that does not correct the problem, return adjustment screw to original position and then turn
adjustment screw clockwise.
This adjustment is like tuning your radio. If you keep turning the adjustment screw, in either direction, you
will go past the proper setting (tuning).
