Pairing the Sensor to a Motolux RF Motor 

Setting Up the Sun/Wind Sensor for Operation

PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS 1/2

1. 

On the Remote, Push and Hold the STOP button until the motor gives a jiggle.

2. 

Within 10 seconds, Push and Hold the “Learn” Button on the underside of the 
Sensor; the motor will give a jiggle indicating that paring was successful.

•  This model does not have a Rain Sensor function but retains this button for programming purposes.
•  Zero in any function will indicate that function will be switched off, e.g. Wind Sensor setting 0 will switch off the Wind 

Sensor function.

•  Each button will increase the increment values from 0 - 9 and will return to 0 once past 9.
•  Looking at the screen from left to right

Please note that Blinds and Awnings should be Paired, and Limits set with a 

Remote Control first before pairing the Sun/Wind Sensor.

The Left-hand digit indicates the Wind setting with a range of 0 – 9, a setting of 0 turns off the function.
The Left-Hand Button looking at the screen controls the Wind Sensor setting function, push this button repeatedly until 
the desired level is reached.

The middle digit indicates the Light setting with a range of 0 – 9, a setting of 0 turns off the function.
The Middle Button looking at the screen controls the Light Sensor setting function, push this button repeatedly until the 
desired level is reached.

Reaction time is 3 seconds once the set threshold is reached, the sensor will then retract the Blind or Awning.
For safety, the Blind or Awning cannot be operated by Remote Control for 5 minutes after the wind speed falls below the 
set threshold.

When pre-set Light levels have been reached for 1.5 minutes of constant light, the sensor will then extend the Blind or Awning.
Once the Light Level has dropped below the pre-set value for 1 minute consistently, the sensor will then withdraw the Blind 
or Awning.

*For the Light Sensor to be effective the top of the unit must have a clear view of the sky, please do not install the unit under eves or 
where it will be affected by trees or branches casting shadows onto the sensor.
