INTRODUCTION
This SKYTECH remote control system was developed to provide a safe, reliable, and user-friendly remote control system for gas heating
appliance. The system can be operated thermostatically or manually from the transmitter. The system operates on radio frequencies (RF)
within a 20''range using non-directional signals. The system operates one of 1,048,576 security codes that are programmed into the
transmitter at the factory; the remote receiver's code must be matched to that of the transmitter prior to initial use.
Review COMMUNICATION SAFETY SECTION under TRANSMITTER section and THERMO SAFETY SECTION under REMOTE
RECEIVER section. These signal/temperature safety features shut down the fireplace system when a potentially unsafe condition exists.

INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
ATTEMPT TO INSTALL OR OPERATE
The transmitter operates on 2AAA-size 1.5V batteries. It is recommended that ALKALINE
batteries always be used for longer battery life and maximum operational performance.
IMPORTANT: New or fully charged batteries are essential for proper operation of the multi-
function transmitter.
Insert 2 AAA-size 1.5 V batteries into the battery transmitter, positioning the (+) and (-) ends of

Note: Due to the sensitive temperature-monitoring components in
the transmitter, it may be necessary to allow the transmitter to
stabilize to room temperature before accurate room temperatures
are displayed on the screen. If the transmitter is activated from a
severe cold condition, it can take up to fifteen minutes for accurate
temperature readings to appear.

  • Page 3: Programming The Transmitter

    SETTING THE CURRENT HOUR AND MINUTES Following Step 3 on the previous page, the HOUR digits will begin flashing in the TIME frame on the LCD screen. To set the current HOUR, press the UP or DOWN button setting the HOUR for the MODE corresponding AM/PM time period.
  • Page 4: Programming Note

    PROGRAM To program the START TIME, press the UP or DOWN button. MORN Programmed start time settings are in 15 minute segments. The new set MODE DOWN time will display on the LCD screen. START TIMER TIME When the desired START TIME displays, press the PROG button and the TIME AHEAD SET TEMPERATURE will flash on the LCD screen.
  • Page 5 ADDITIONAL PROGRAMMING OPTIONS SWING TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIAL The thermo-transmitter operates the fireplace system whenever the ROOM TEMPERATURE varies a certain number of degrees from the SET TEMPERATURE. This variation is called the “SWING” or TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIAL. The normal operating cycle of a fireplace system may be 2-4 times per hour depending on how well the room or home is insulated from the cold or drafts.
  • Page 6: Program Period

    TEMPERATURE OVERRIDE – (Operates only in PROGRAM mode) The user may change the current SET temperature without changing the programs stored in the transmitter’s memory. The OVERRIDE feature will be automatically cancelled at the start of the next PROGRAM MODE PROGRAM PERIOD.
  • Page 7: Remote Receiver

    OPERATING SAFETY MONITORS: SYSTEMS SHUTDOWN The SKYTECH remote control operates on RF (radio frequency) signals that are sent by the TRANSMITTER (remote) to the RECEIVER that operates the appliance. It is recommended that the TRANSMITTER always be located within the 20 foot operating range, preferably in the same room in which the appliance is located.
  • Page 8: Installation Instructions

    THERMO- SAFETY FEATURE – RECEIVER (T/S –RX) This SKYTECH remote control has a THERMO-SAFETY feature that is built into the system’s RECEIVER. This feature is temperature- activated and provides an extra margin of safety when the RECEIVER is operating where ambient temperatures exceed 130 F degrees inside the receiver case.
  • Page 9: Wiring Instructions

    WALL MOUNTING Install 4 AA-size 1.5 ALKALINE batteries in the remote receiver. For best performance, remote receiver batteries should be factory fresh when installed. Very little battery power is required to operate the remote receiver, but the electronics are tuned to operate best when battery output is greater than 5.3 volts.
  • Page 10: System Check

    SYSTEM CHECK MILLIVOLT VALVES Light your gas appliance following the lighting instructions that came with the appliance. Confirm that the pilot flame is on; it must be in operation for the main gas valve to operate. • Slide the 3-position button on the remote receiver to the ON position. The main gas flame (i.e., the fire) should ignite. •...
  • Page 11 BATTERY LIFE Life expectancy of alkaline batteries in the SKYTECH 3301P should be at least 12 months. Check and replace all batteries annually. When the Transmitter or Wall Transmitter no longer operates the receiver from a distance it did previously (i.e., the transmitter’s range has decreased) or the remote receiver does not function at all, the batteries should be checked.
