Ignition] Jumper Cable Installation
"Why use CPI mode?"
There are several reasons why you may want to use the CPI mode.
When a flue is cold it can be difficult to light the appliance. It can take
a bit of time (particularly on tall vents) to initialize vent action. This
can result in "lifting" or "ghosting" of the flames during the first two
to three minutes of operation. It is also possible to encounter times
when the fireplace fails to light successfully. The fireplace will then
attempt to re-light a second or third time depending on prevailing
temperatures or altitude. In CPI mode the pilot also keeps the system
warm. During a "cold" start, condensation will normally form on the
inner glass surface of the door. This condensation will quickly dry,
however, the condensation tends to run down the glass and cause
some streaking. CPI mode helps to resolve this issue. If CPI mode
is used during the winter months the energy it takes to run the pilot
is partially recovered as heat into the building, so it does not waste
as much energy as running a pilot in the off season.
A connector is supplied with this unit that can be plugged into the
controller. This Jumper Cable gives the Remote Control the ability
to operate the CPI / IPI switch and set the unit to operate in either
condition. CPI means "Continuous Pilot Ignition" or "Standing Pilot"
as most people would be familiar with. IPI means "Intermittent
Pilot Ignition", which only initializes the pilot when you are going
to be using the appliance.
The difference between IPI and CPI:
IPI (Intermittent Pilot Ignition) Mode: is a fuel saving mode in
which the pilot is only used when the main burner is on.
CPI (Continuous Pilot Ignition) Mode: The Pilot runs continuously
even when the main burner is off.
