Assembly and operating instructions

Prepare assembly

Note before mounting

1. Read the operating instructions carefully and completely.
2. Make sure that the carrier product (roller shutter, awning) is not damaged and that it can be opened and closed without interference. If necessary, replace damaged parts.

Structure of the shutter
The drawing below is exemplary and shows the basic structure of a roller shutter system. Deviations from the on-site installation are possible.

Mounting in roller shutter

1. Lower the roller shutter completely and determine whether the motor is to be installed on the left or right side in the roller shutter box. Always choose the shortest route to the nearest junction box, as cables must not be laid in the roller shutter box.
2. The limit switch is controlled via the fully opened plastic ring. Always ensure that the motor can be pushed into the shaft as far as it will go.

1. Bearing shell
2. Ball bearing
3. Roller capsule
4. Steel shaft
5. Suspension openings
6. Roller shutter motor
7. Engine mount
8. Safety split pin

Mounting the motor

1. Lay the connecting cable in an empty pipe up to the junction box, observing the local building and electrical regulations.

2. Lower the shutter completely and loosen the shaft connection.

3. Disassemble the roller shutter shaft.
   NOTE! The roller capsule (counter-bearing side) is usually secured with 2 opposite screws.

4. Mount the motor bearing included in the scope of delivery on the side on which you want to mount the motor. The motor can be installed on the left or right.

5. Push the barrel ring adapter over the barrel ring on the motor head as far as it will go ( 1 ).
   Make sure that the groove in the adapter is in the correct position.

6. Push the motor into the roller shutter shaft until it is completely inserted with the race in the shaft ( 2 ).

7. Check whether the shaft with the installed motor can be mounted appropriately in the roller shutter box or whether you may have to shorten the shaft.
   On the counter-bearing side (opposite the motor side) is the roller capsule or telescopic shaft. These can be pushed a few centimeters into the roller shutter shaft or pulled out of the shaft.

8. Insert the motor inserted into the shaft into the motor bearing and the shaft with the journal of the roller capsule into the counter bearing ( 3 ).
   Secure the square spigot of the motor head with the locking pin included with the bearing.

9. Fasten the roller capsule with two opposite screws ( 4 ).

ATTENTION! The roller capsule or telescopic shaft must be secured against displacement!
ATTENTION! Do not drill into the motor’s jacket tube and do not turn any screws into the motor!

When installed, the rolled-up roller shutter must run vertically into the guide rail. Make sure that the bearings or the shaft are installed horizontally. An oddly wound roller shutter can block and destroy the motor. Make sure that the motor is mounted so that the adjustment screws on the motor head ( 5 ) remain easily accessible! Use steel band hangers, also called safety springs, to fasten the roller shutter to the shaft.

ATTENTION! If you screw screws into the roller shutter shaft to suspend the roller shutter, please ensure that they are short enough and do not touch the motor under any circumstances!

Electrical connection

WARNING!
There is a danger to life from electric shock when working on electrical equipment!

• The mains connection of the motor and all work on electrical installations may only be carried out by an authorized electrician in accordance with the respective connection diagrams of the device.
• Carry out all assembly and connection work in a de-energized state.

Wiring diagram – motor with mechanical limit switches

NOTE!

• After connecting the control/switch, check the UP, STOP and DOWN functions.
• The direction of rotation of the motor depends on the installation position (left/right) of the motor as well as on the winding direction of the roller shutter (left roller/right roller).
• If the motor (shutter) should move in downward direction when the UP key is pressed, the brown and black wires (UP/DOWN) must be swapped.

ATTENTION! Switches and circuits (controls) must not allow simultaneous UP and DOWN commands! An UP and DOWN command given at the same time will cause a short circuit of the operating capacitor. Only electrically or mechanically interlocked switches (not light switches) may be used.

ATTENTION! An impermissible parallel connection ( 1 ) leads to the destruction of the limit switches! It must be ensured that each drive has its own switching contact for each running direction! To control multiple drives with only one switch (or timer), be sure to use a motor isolating relay or suitable motor control units!

Set

Set end positions (end points)

1. Connect the motor according to the wiring diagram (page 11) and switch on the power supply.
2. Move the shaft with the motor down via the DOWN button on the control unit until the motor switches off and the factory final setting is reached (roller shutter not yet fastened!). The factory setting is approx. 3-5 full shaft revolutions between OPEN and CLOSE.
3. Attach the roller shutter to the roller shutter shaft ( 1 ) ( 2 ). If the suspension openings on the roller shutter shaft cannot be reached, press the DOWN button on the control unit again and turn the adjustment pin on the upper adjustment screw ( 3 ) in the “+” direction. The shaft then moves jerkily in the DOWN direction. Turn the adjustment screw until you reach the suspension openings for the steel band hangers and can hang the roller shutter.
4. Move the roller shutter in the OPEN direction.
   The motor must switch off before reaching the roller shutter box. Then turn the adjusting pin on the lower adjusting screw ( 3 ) in the “+” direction. The motor (roller shutter) now moves “jerkily” upwards. Continue turning the adjustment screw until the roller shutter has reached the roller shutter box or the desired end point.
   NOTE! The roller shutter end strip must still be visible from the outside ( 4 ).

• If the shutter does not stop before reaching the shutter box, stop it with the STOP button on the control unit.
• Then move the roller shutter back a little (approx. “half opening”) and turn the adjustment pin on the lower adjustment screw (3) a few turns in the “-” direction.
• Then move the shutter back in the OPEN direction and check that the motor now stops before reaching the shutter box.
• If necessary, move the roller shutter back a little again and reduce the travel distance further by turning the adjustment screw in the “-” direction.
• Then move the shutter back in the OPEN direction and make the fine adjustment.
• To do this, turn in the “+” direction until the desired switch-off point is reached.
• Once the shutter has reached the desired opening height, remove the adjustment tool.
• Now allow the roller shutter to roll up and down completely several times as a test. If the roller shutter stops at the set end points, the limit switch setting is complete and the roller shutter box can be closed.

ATTENTION!

• Note that the limit switches of the motor only function properly when the motor is correctly and completely inserted into the shaft!
• Please note that the motor is equipped with a thermal protection switch and it may happen that the motor switches off because it has reached a high temperature after a few runs.
• In this case, the motor will switch off automatically for safety reasons. After approx. 15-20 minutes cooling time the motor is ready for operation again.

Change end positions (end points)

• Move the shutter back to the middle position and start again from the beginning.
• To do this, first move the roller shutter to a “middle position” (roller shutter approx. half open).
• Then turn the corresponding adjustment screw a few (5-6) turns in the “-” direction and check again, whether the motor now stops earlier.
• If necessary, start from the beginning.
• In the factory, approx. 3-5 full shaft revolutions are set as limit switch range between OPEN and CLOSED.
• If the motor does not stop in time, one of the adjustment screws may have been turned in the wrong direction too often.
• Then unhook the shutter again and let the motor in the shaft run in the DOWN direction until it switches off automatically.
• Once this is done, you can determine if you are using the correct adjustment screw for the appropriate direction of rotation by turning one of the adjustment screws in the “+” direction.
• Make sure that the motor is still controlled by the control unit (press the DOWN key again).

NOTE! If the motor travels too far up or down (does not stop when reaching the roller shutter box or the lower end point), the adjusting screw responsible for this direction of travel must be turned in the “-” direction to shorten the travel distance.

ATTENTION!

• Do not perform a “test run on the table”, as this will not rotate the race adapter on the motor head.
• The motor then does not switch off and runs “endlessly”!
• This very quickly leads to overheating and shutdown of the motor by the built-in thermocouple.
• It is also not advisable to turn the adjusting screws before installing the motor in the shaft, as this usually leads to an uncontrolled adjustment of the end positions set at the factory.

Troubleshooting / FAQ

The motor does not stop automatically during adjustment work and test run.

• Possible cause 1:

  • • The adapter has slipped off the race on the motor head.

• Solution 1:
