PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The BiDi-Shutter control unit enables the control of a single-phase asynchronous motor, mains pow-
ered, with connection types: Down, Common, Up, used for the automation of awnings, rolling shutters,
Venetian blinds and similar.
The BiDi-Shutter control unit incorporates a radio transceiver that operates at the frequency of 433.92
MHz with rolling code technology to guarantee optimal safety levels.
Each control unit can memorise up to 30 mono or bidirectional transmitters in the series ERA, ERGO,
FLOR, NICEWAY and VERY, which enable the remote control of the unit.
In the 30 transmitters, climatic radio sensors can be memorised, for the automatic control of the control
unit according to weather conditions.
The control unit is equipped with two inputs for controlling the unit by means of external pushbuttons.
Memorisation and programming is possible via the programming pushbutton (figure 1) on the BiDi-Shutter.
The user is guided through the various phases by means of LED signals.
The control unit is equipped with overload, and overheating protection, which will disable the relays to
prevent damage to the circuit.

INSTALLATION
•
The product is subject to hazardous electric voltages
•
The installation of the BiDi-Shutter and automations must be performed exclusively by technically qualified personnel, in
observance of current legislation and standards, and according to these instructions. All connections must be made with
the system disconnected from the power supply.
•
The BiDi-Shutter control unit has been especially designed for insertion in a junction box or wall box; its housing does not
feature any protection against water and only basic protection against contact with solid parts. Never place the BiDi-Shutter
in inadequately protected environments.
•
Never open or perforate the BiDi-Shutter housing, this is subject to hazardous electric voltages!
3.1 - Preliminary checks
•
The power supply line must be protected by suitable magneto-thermal (compliant with IEC/EN 60898-1 standard, rated up to 16A) and
residual-current circuit breakers.
•
A disconnection device must be inserted in the power supply line from the electrical mains (the distance between the contacts must be at
least 3mm with an overvoltage category of III) or equivalent system, for example an outlet and relative plug. If the disconnection device for
the power supply is not mounted near the automation, it must have a locking system to prevent unintentional, unauthorized connection.
