3.2W Solar Panel

3. Installation

3.1 Location of solar panel

The solar panel must always be installed outside, on the
roller shutter casing, so as to receive as much natural light
as possible.
Caution! Never install the solar panel behind glass, or in the
shade. Always leave the photovoltaic cells unobstructed, do
not put anything in front of them.
The three components that make up the Oximo 40 RTS kit must be installed on the same side as the
roller shutter.

3.2 Mounting the solar panel

Caution! Do not damage the cables during installation. Deburr all drill holes.
Rivet mounting
1) Drill 1 hole with diameter 15 mm (A) and 2 holes with
diameter 5 mm (B) on the front of the casing, as per the
diagram opposite.
2) Feed through the solar panel wire inside the casing via the
drilled hole (A).
3) Protect the wire from the hole edges by positioning the
protective foam at that point.
4) Mount the solar panel in the two drilled holes (B), using
aluminium pop rivets with diameter 4,8 mm and length
18,7 mm

4. Wiring

Caution! The cables and connectors must be protected from the roller shutter movement.
Somfy recommends placing the connectors behind the end
piece and fixing the cables inside the roller shutter casing.
1) Wire the solar panel 2-pin connector to the battery
connector (G).
2) Wire the Oximo 40 RTS motor 4-pin connector to the
battery connector (H).
