1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. AREA OF APPLICATION

The Eolis io is a wind sensor equipped with io-homecontrol® radio technology.
Connected directly to io-homecontrol® motors for terrace awnings, vertical blinds, pergolas,
adjustable sun shades or hinged shutters, the Eolis io allows these applications to be controlled
automatically if the wind blows stronger than a pre-set threshold.
The Eolis io is not compatible with a solar-powered motor or battery.
The wind sensitivity threshold is pre-set by default, but it can be adjusted on the sensor, according to
requirements and actual climatic conditions.

1.2. LIABILITY

The Eolis io sensor must be installed by a home motorisation and automation professional,
in accordance with Somfy's instructions and the applicable regulations in the country of
installation.
Any operation of the Eolis io sensor outside the scope of application described above is prohibited.
Such use, and any failure to comply with the instructions given in this guide, absolves Somfy of any
liability and invalidates the warranty.
The installer must inform his customers of the usage and maintenance conditions of the Eolis io
sensor and must provide them with the user and maintenance instructions after installing the Eolis io
sensor. Any after-sales service operation on the Eolis io sensor requires intervention by a home
motorisation and automation professional.
Never begin installing without first checking the compatibility of this product with the associated
equipment and accessories.
Somfy accepts no liability in the event of damage to equipment caused by weather conditions not
detected by the sensor.
