5. IntelliFire Touch Electronic Control Module (IFT-ECM)
IFT-ECM Detailed Operating Instruction
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 12.
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 installation, service, backup battery
installation, 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.
The IFT-ECM has a safety feature that will
automatically shut down the fireplace after
9 hours of continuous operation in the ON
position.
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.
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.

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 compo-
nents inside the appliance.
Note: Some appliances may be equipped with a remote
mounted reset switch.
- 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.
- Wait five (5) minutes to allow possible
accumulated gas to clear.
- Set the IFT-ECM 3-position selector switch to ON
or IFT-REM position. Module will beep once and
flash a three GREEN LED code on successful
startup.
- If placed in ON position, the appliance will ignite
normally if the error condition was corrected.
- If placed in IFT-REM position, use the paired IFT-
RC400, IFT-RC150 or wired wall switch to start
the appliance; appliance will ignite normally if the
error condition was corrected.
- If the IFT-ECM re-enters the lock-out condition
after these steps, call your dealer for service.
