Remote Motion Sensor
Model GC 135M (Transmitter)
The model
GC 135M
Motion Sensor is used to sense the movement of the Lead Rail of an awning caused by wind
that could result in damage to the system. It consists of a main enclosure that incorporates the electronic
components and a small magnet with a mounting bracket (see above).
The enclosure is mounted on the Lead Rail making sure that the top is oriented as shown on the back of the unit. The
magnet is mounted on the back housing of the cassette facing directly the main enclosure of the
GC 135M
so that
when retracted it is in close proximity to its upper edge.
The sensing element consists of an inertia switch activated by a weighted lever. The position of the brass cylinder
weight can be adjusted to inDCease or deDCease the sensitivity: moving the weight closer to the pivot point by
rotating the retaining nut will deDCease the sensitivity and vice versa (Fig 1).
Fig.1
When the inertia switch closes the RF transmitter will emit a “retract all” signal and the awnings paired with the RF
transmitter will retract.
