scenes
The end position of a louvre blind can be stored in a lighting scene together with the lighting
arrangement. This lighting scene can be changed at any time by simply storing it again.
Before storing or selecting a lighting scene, a lighting scene button on the transmitter must be
programmed; see "Programming a radio transmitter".
Storing a lighting scene
1. Move the louvre blind to the required end position (up/down) by pressing an appropriate channel
button.
2. Hold down the required lighting scene button on the transmitter for at least 3 seconds.
Note: If the louvre blind is not in an end position or on the way towards it during the process for storing
a lighting scene, the louvre blind will not be stored in the lighting scene.
Important for systems with radio actuators and DALI central unit:
If you use a lighting scene button that has already been programmed in the DALI central unit by
means of the manual programming unit, the DALI central unit will react to the radio telegram during
the storage process. In this case, the current lighting situation of the loads connected to the DALI
central unit would be stored in the central unit as a lighting scene. This would overwrite a lighting
scene that has already been stored. To avoid this, you should select the lighting scene stored in the
DALI central unit by pressing briefly on the appropriate scene button before you start storing the
lighting scene in the louvre blind actuator.

Test mode
Once it has been installed, the louvre blind actuator can be tested by briefly pressing the programming
button a number of times (for less then 1 second in each case). The actuator will run through the
following statuses:
No

Notes on radio operation
A non-exclusive transmission path is used for radio transmission, which means that
interference cannot be ruled out. Radio transmission is not suitable for safety applications,
such as emergency shutdown or calls to the emergency services.
The range of a transmitter (up to 100 m in the open) depends on the nature of the building:
Dry material
Penetration
Wood, plaster, plasterboard
approx. 90 %
Brick, MDF
approx. 70 %
Reinforced concrete
approx. 30 %
Metal, metal grating, aluminium
cladding
approx. 10 %
