Abstract
Methods and systems for a fire device, comprising actuating a respective valve included in each of a plurality of torches based on the audio mode selection and the audio input via a control signal sent through a common line, wherein each of the plurality of torches comprises a wire connection clamp coupling a respective torch of the plurality of torches to the common line to receive the control signal. The valve is part of an ignition configuration, wherein the ignition configuration includes a fan lighter positioned vertically above the gaseous fuel injector, in at least one example.
Claims20
A method for control of a fire device system, comprising:
- receiving a user input selecting an audio mode;
- receiving an audio input;
- and
- actuating a respective valve included in each of a plurality of torches based on the audio mode selection and the audio input via a control signal sent through a common line, wherein each of the plurality of torches comprises a wire connection clamp coupling a respective torch of the plurality of torches to the common line to receive the control signal.
A fire device system, comprising:
- a plurality of torches, wherein each of the plurality of torches includes an ignition configuration comprising a valve and a fan lighter, the valve configured to adjust an amount of fuel flowed to a gaseous fuel injector and the fan lighter positioned vertically above the gaseous fuel injector;
- a common line, wherein each of the plurality of torches is coupled to the common line via a wire connection clamp;
- and
- a hub communicatively coupled to the plurality of torches via the common line, wherein the hub comprises a controller with instructions stored in non-transitory memory, wherein the instructions, when executed by the controller, cause the controller to:
- provide a control signal via the common line to actuate the valve included in each of the respective plurality of torches based on an audio mode request and an audio input.
A fire device, comprising:
- a fan lighter;
- a pilot light gas tube and a pilot light positioned adjacent to the fan lighter;
- a gaseous fuel injector, wherein the fan lighter is positioned vertically above the gaseous fuel injector, the gaseous fuel injector vertically spaced away from the fan lighter;
- a valve positioned upstream of the gaseous fuel injector, the valve configured to provide gaseous fuel to the gaseous fuel injector;
- and
- a hub communicatively coupled to a fire device controller, the hub comprising instructions stored in non-transitory memory, wherein the instructions, when executed by the fire device controller, cause the fire device controller to:
- adjust a position of the valve responsive to receiving a request for an audio mode and receiving an audio input, where the position of the valve is based on the audio input.
