TRANSMITTER – RT8220A/RT8220A-2


The transmitter controls the flame level, fan speed, and room temperature. 


The three basic operating modes are the OFF mode, ON (manual) mode, and AUTO mode.


In OFF mode, the fireplace flame and fan are off. 


In ON mode, the flame level and fan speed can be adjusted by the user. 


In the AUTO mode, the RT8220A is used as a thermostat to allow the fireplace to control the temperature of the room automatically.


There are six buttons on the remote. 

The buttons are the mode, delay timer, flame, fan, up, and down buttons. 


The mode button changes the operating mode of the RT8220A.


The delay timer enables or disables a shutoff timer function. 


The flame and fan buttons are used to change the flame or fan levels. 

The up and down keys are used to change the temperature setting or flame, fan, and delay timer values. 


Below is a detailed description of how to use the transmitter.

OFF MODE In the OFF mode, the display will show OFF and the room temperature. If the receiver is in REMOTE mode, the fireplace will shut off.


ON MODE (manual)In the ON mode, the room temperature, flame, and fan levels will be shown.
