Press together the onboard buttons P2 and P3 for about 5 seconds until only LED1 lights up, then release the buttons.
By rotating the vanes LED1 should turn off and LED 2 lights up. Illuminate the sun sensor using a portable torch. Verify that the LED2 turns off when the sensor is
reached by warm light of portable torch. Obscure the sun sensor and verify that the LED2 turns on. After about 8 seconds, the sensor will automatically exit the
test of the sun sensor.
You can exit test at any time by briefly pressing P1.

07. CHARGE STATUS OF THE BATTERY
It's possible, if necessary, know the level of charge of the battery. It's useful, in fact, replace the battery before it runs out definitively, so as to ensure the
continuous operation of the sensor. The procedure is as follows:
Press simultaneously P1 and P3 until the LEDs flash according to the state of charge of the battery (see table)
P1 P3
Charge status

2 flashes

LOW BATTERY!!!
The battery life is estimated to be at least 3 years in standard conditions of temperature and humidity. However, you must consider the fact that the battery
life can be reduce in particular conditions of use.
Where available, it is strongly recommended to keep active, in the radio receivers tuned to the sensor, the "Test radio" function. If, due to the gradual
depletion of the battery, the transmission range of sensor is no longer enough to reach a tuned receiver, the "Test Radio" of the receiver periodically
(about every 30 minutes) rewinds the awning, bringing it in safe position and providing a visible indication of the need to check the radio sensor and
eventually replace the battery.
While waiting for the necessary checks by an authorized technician, you can temporarily disable the "Test Radio" as described on the installation manuals
of the receivers.
08. REPLACEMENT OF THE BATTERY
The battery must be replaced by an equivalent type. Contact an authorized installer for the replacement battery. Because of the conditions of use of the sensor,
the temperature inside the sensor can reach high values. Inadequate batteries may cause fire or explosion.
How to replace the battery:
- remove the closing cover.
- slide the switch to OFF (or 1).
- remove the old battery and replace it with the new battery supplied by the manufacturer of the sensor.
- slide the switch to ON.
The old battery must be disposed of in the appropriate containers.
After replacing the battery is required to perform a verify of the system. In the event that the system does not work, set the switch to OFF, wait a few seconds,
return the switch to ON and check that the LED1 lights up briefly, and then redo the verify operation of the sensor. In cases where receivers have disabled the
"Test Radio", you should re-enable it.
Battery replacement must be performed by an authorized technician,
following all applicable safety standards.
09. FAQ
üCheck the battery status. If exhausted replace it.
üOnce powered, LED1 lights up briefly to indicate the turning ON. If this is not done, return the switch to OFF (or 1), wait a few seconds and slide the switch ON.
ü Wind threshold is to high. Adjust the threshold.
ü The device could be installed in a position little exposed to the wind.
ü The wind sensor may be damaged. Use the procedure 05.3 to check the operation of the sensor.
üInterferences on Radio connection. Verify that there are no interferences on same frequency.
THE SENSOR DOES NOT PERFORM ANY OPERATION
IN PRESENCE OF WIND, THE UPWARD MOVEMENT IS NOT COMMANDED
üThe device is in “Wind alarm”.
üSun threshold is too high. Adjust the threshold.
üThe device could be installed in a position little exposed to the sun, or some object obstructs the proper detection of the sun.
üSun function is deactive.
üThe sun sensor may be damaged. Check functionality by procedure 06.3
IN PRESENCE OF WIND, THE UPWARD MOVEMENT IS COMMANDED BUT IN PRESENCE OF SUN THE DOWNWARD MOVEMENT IS NOT
COMMANDED
