downdrafting

Hi guys. Another newbie here. I finally got my Avalon Arbor. Went through the 3 fire breakin and the headache producing curing paint oder. I understand it is a downdraft from searching this forum, the salesman didn't mention anything about how hard it would be getting the downdraft started or if it was easy to set or forget as it is with the cat models.
I've got the bypass closed and the air control closed. I do hear a draft running through the stove not very loud. No flames or very little blue flames not rolling. Started with alot of glowing coals. Looked outside at chimney with flashlight very little smoke I think, dark outside. Is this in the process of downdrafting?

Try to ignite the secondary combustion again today but failed. Didn't think these kind of stoves were that much work. Should have done my homework first.
Re the name : Always liked to mess around with fire when I was a kid, been called a firebug many times. Didn't know there was another on this board, i can always change mine.
