Introduction; Installing The System - Masport Climate Pilot Owner's Manual

INTRODUCTION

The Masport Climate Pilot has a thermostat in the handpiece which turns the fire on and off to
maintain a desired room temperature. The temperature setting can be programmed to give different
room temperatures during two selected periods of each day of the week. Unlike the Masport ECS II
Control System, the Climate Pilot does not vary the flame height or control the heater fan. However,
if the fan is fitted with a Thermodisc control, this will start and stop the fan in response to the heater
output.
The Climate Pilot uses a radio frequency (RF) system which can operate in three modes –
MANUAL, AUTO and PROGRAM. The RF system has the advantage that the remote control does
not need to be aimed directly at the receiver.

INSTALLING THE SYSTEM.

1. The RF system does not require line-of-sight between the handpiece and the receiver. For free-
standing heaters, mount the receiver at the rear or either side of the pedestal. before attaching the
receiver with the adhesive patch, verify that the leads will reach the valve or themostat terminals and
that there will be room to extract and replace the battery tray. There must also be room for the aerial
which must not be shortened but may be formed into a zig-zag shape if desired. Thoroughly clean the
attachment area to ensure good adhesion. For in-built models, the receiver may be mounted on the
wall alongside (not above) or, in the case of the Roma, Calais, Grenada, Newport, Sofia EIS and
Madrid EIS models, it may be placed (not fixed) on the floor of the heater directly behind the lower
grille. (See the illustration below for a typical installation). For wall mounting, carefully prise the
switch knob from the receiver, extract the battery tray (see paragraph 2) and slide the angle mounting
bracket away from the receiver box. Fix the receiver box to the wall after plugging in the power
supply (if any), screw on the wall cover plate, refit the knob and slide in the battery tray.
