• ACCESSORIES: A) Double pushbutton; B) Pushbutton for jog operation; C) Pair of photocells; D) Resistive sensitive edge; E) Climate sensors
(hardwired); F) Climate sensors (via radio); G) Portable transmitters (via radio).
• Manual "Sun Off" Command = enables the reception, by the motor, of auto-
matic commands transmitted by the "Sun" sensor, if present in the installation.
When the reception is disabled, the automated device operates exclusively with
the manual commands sent by the user. The "Wind" and "Rain" sensors cannot
be disabled because they protect the automated device from these atmospheric
phenomena.
• "Above-threshold" intensity of sun/wind = condition where the intensity of the
atmospheric phenomenon corresponds to high values above the set threshold.
• "Below-threshold" intensity of sun/wind = condition where the intensity of the
atmospheric phenomenon corresponds to low values below the set threshold.
• "Wind protection" = a condition in which the system inhibits all the awning/shut-
ter opening commands due to the intensity of the wind above the threshold.
• "Presence of rain" = a condition in which the system detects the presence of rain,
with respect to the previous condition of "absence of rain".
• "Manual command" = UP, DOWN or Stop command sent by the user by means
of a transmitter.
6.2.2 - Memorisation of a climate sensor connected via radio
To store a climate sensor to perform the procedure 5.12.
6.2.3 - Behaviour of the motor in each kind of weather condition
The NEMO and VOLO accessories allow the awning/shutter to be moved automati-
cally, depending on the weather conditions at the time. For adjustments to the levels
of intervention, please refer to the Nemo and Volo product manuals.
• Beh,aviour of the automated device when there is a Sun sen-
sor: fig. 7
When the intensity of the sunlight exceeds the set threshold for at least 2 minutes,
the motor automatically lowers the awning/shutter. When the intensity of the sunlight
goes below the specified delay threshold and remains there for at least 15 minutes,
the motor automatically raises the awning/shutter. N.B. – the delay threshold is about
50% of the value for the specified sunlight threshold.
Momentary reductions in sunlight intensity, that last a short time or less than 15 min-
utes, do not affect the overall cycle. Manual commands sent by the user are in addi-
tion to the automatic commands.
The factory setting for the solar sensor setpoint is level 3 (= 15 Klux). If you wish to
change this value use procedure 5.16.
• Behaviour of the automated device when there is a Rain
sensor: fig. 8
The rain sensor recognises two states: "absence of rain" and "presence of rain".
When the motor receives the message "presence of rain", it automatically activates
the manoeuvre (Up or Down) that the installer has programmed for this condition (*).
The rain sensor is disabled automatically when it detects the absence of rain for at
least 15 minutes.
(*) - Use procedure 5.14 to program the manoeuvre that the motor should perform
automatically when the rain sensor signals the "presence of rain".
The automatic rain function is deactivated after the absence of rain has been veri-
fied for at least 15 minutes. In this case, the manual commands are always active
and are in addition to the automatically-generated command. If a manual command
is sent that is contrary to the previous automatic command, the system carries out
the manual command and at the same time starts a 15 minute timer that regener-
ates the programmed automatic command once this time elapses (e.g. the closure
of the awning/shutter).

Example: 1) The awning/shutter is open. 2) It starts raining. 3) The awning (or shut-
ter) closes. 4) The user forces it to open after a few moments. 5) The awning (or
shutter) opens again. 6) 15 minutes after being opened, the awning (or shutter) clos-
es again automatically. 7) It stops raining for at least 15 minutes. 8) The user again
opens the awning (or shutter). 9) The awning (or shutter) remains open.
• Behaviour of the automated device when there is a Wind
sensor: fig. 9
When the intensity of the wind exceeds the set threshold, the system activates the
wind protection and automatically raises the awning/shutter. With the wind protec-
tion activated, the manual commands are deactivated and it is not possible to lower
the awning/shutter. At the end of the barring period, the manual commands are re-
activated and after 10 minutes, automatic operation is restored.
The factory setting for the wind sensor setpoint is level 3 (= wind at 15 Km/h). If you
wish to change this value use procedure 5.17.
• Behaviour of the system with various weather conditions at
the same time
Each condition has a priority level. The scale of priorities is the following: wind, rain,
sun. Wind has the highest priority. A condition with a higher priority neutralises the
one with a lower priority.
Example: 1) On a beautiful sunny day the awning (or shutter) is lowered due to the
effect of the sunlight. 2) If some clouds arrive and a drop of rain falls on the sensor,
the motor neutralises the "sun present" condition and commands the specified ma-
noeuvre for the "rain present" condition. 3) If the speed of the wind increases and
exceeds the set threshold, the motor deactivates the specified automatic sequence
for rain and will send a command to raise the awning (or shutter) and locks it in the
closed position for as long as it is windy. 4) When the thunderstorm stops, the wind
alarm condition elapses after 10 minutes and, at this point, if the "rain presence"
condition persists, the setting for this is reactivated and the established manoeuvre
is commanded again. When the rain condition ceases, the routine for sun conditions
are re-established. If the sunlight intensity exceeds the threshold, the awning (or
shutter) will re-open. When the sunlight intensity falls below the threshold level for at
least 15 minutes, a command will be sent to raise the awning/shutter.
• "Sun-On" and "Sun-Off" commands
The "Sun-ON" command enables the function of the automated mechanism where-
as the "Sun-OFF" command deactivates it. If the user sends the "Sun-On" command
(automatic function enabled) and at that moment it is sunny, the system commands
the awning/shutter to open. If the automatic device was already enabled, when an-
other "Sun-On" command is sent, the system is reset and the algorithms start again
from scratch, with immediate effect. If a "Sun-On" command is sent but the level of
sunlight does not allow the awning/shutter to open (the sunlight threshold is not ex-
ceeded), the motor will generate a command to close it according to the conditions
at that time. If the conditions are not such as to initiate a movement (e.g. the awning
or shutter is closed and there is no sun), when the "Sun-On" command is sent, the
motor will remain still. If a "Sun Off" order is sent, the automatic function is disabled.
Example: the awning (or shutter) is closed; a "Sun-On" command is sent; if it is sun-
ny, the awning (or shutter) opens immediately without waiting 2 minutes.
By disabling the automatic function, the automatic movements associated with the
variations in sunlight intensity are blocked. The automatic functions associated with
wind and rain cannot be deactivated.
