II. OVERVIEW
The Power over Ethernet (PoE) Motor is a low-voltage powered distribution and network-connected motor that utilizes PoE technology power and control from industry-common network switches. This motor supports both Somfy Synergy API and CoAP Digital Building API protocols and is
compatible with Power over Ethernet Network Switches IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) Type2 (30W) or higher. PoE motor system quantity is based on managing the number of devices on the subnet(s) available, unless
specific network configurations are in place and managed by an IT Administrator.
REQUIREMENTS
SOFTWARE · Requires access to a web browser from any device that can support a web browser operation · Root certificate during software installation
HARDWARE Recommended minimum cabling and connectors: · CAT-5e SF/UTP (Shielded & Foiled with Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable or higher Required for installations with high electromagnetic emissions and applications that can produce high electrostatic charging due to excessive friction(Ex: Dual-roll, zebra shades, and similar shading) · TIA-568B RJ-45 Connectors – Shielded RJ45 female coupler (#9028957) included with the PoE motors · Network Router DHCP Server · Power over Ethernet Network Switch IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) Type2 (30W) or higher · Sonesse® 30 PoE Motor #1241147 & Sonesse® 40 PoE Motors

III. INSTALLATION

POWER

The PoE Motor receives power through the Power over Ethernet Switch. Cables routed through a metal wall must be protected and insulated by sleeving or sheathing.

To minimize electrostatic charging, end products should avoid: · Fabric friction with other fabric like in some dual shade applications · Hardware friction with fabric and other parts of the product such as fascia, cassette, and guide rails · Excessive ESD caused by fabric friction in dual-roll and Zebra shade installations · Multiple cycles of product travel without ample rest to dissipate ESD charging

BASIC WIRING FOR OPERATION

5 of 15

USING MOTOR LABELS
Each Somfy PoE motor is supplied with four labels that include motor information to connect to motors. The label includes a four-digit PIN code for the motor and will be used to log in to the motor. These codes will be used for the life of the product.
DO NOT DISCARD THE MOTOR INFORMATION LABELS!
One of the motor information labels should remain on the body of the motor. The other three labels should be shipped in the packaging of the motorized product or see below for recommended locations to use the labels.
Suggested locations for the Motor Information Labels:
· Finished motorized products: Examples: – Attached motor cable – Removeable shade hem bar – Motor cover
· Inside the valance of the motorized product · Work order sheet used in project planning · Product packaging used for shipping

Example above: On motor tube

Example above: Shade hem bar

Example above: On motor cable

IMPORTANT NOTE:
Gathering and organizing motor PIN codes and motor information from the included motor labels is very important in navigating through the PoE motor graphical user interface.
If the PoE WebGUI and the motor become disconnected, the login screen will display to enter the PIN code to reconnect to the motor.

IV. COMMISSIONING
WEB INTERFACE LOGIN
Each PoE motor hosts a web interface for motor setting and configuration. Prior to configuring the motor, obtain the motor information label for the motor PIN code required for login. Refer to the MAC address to obtain the motor IP address from the network DHCP server. To configure or adjust PoE motors via the onboard web interface, follow the steps below:
1. OPEN a web browser to NAVIGATE to the SOMFY PoE WebGUI
2. ENTER the PoE motor IP address or the Host name in the address bar NOTE: Motor info entered must start with https:// Example: https://192.168.0.101
3. At the “Your connection isn’t private” prompt, SELECT “Advanced,” then SELECT “Proceed to 192.168.0.101”
4. At the Login, ENTER the PoE motor PIN code, then SELECT “Login” to connect to the motor
MOTOR SETTINGS & CONFIGURATION Starting with “Settings,” continue down the process tree to configure the motor SELECT “Home” to return to the Home screen or SELECT “Back” to return to a previous screen.
A Manufacturer Usage Description (MUD) file is available for each motor to be used for advanced network security installations. NOTE: Check with the IT Administrator to find out if a MUD file can be used in their configuration. To download the MUD file, SELECT “MUD file” and navigate to the downloaded file’s location. Refer to the Appendix to Factory Reset a motor, to Reset end limits and preset positions, or to view the
Diagnostics information of a motor.
