FTS system operating principle
The control unit
The FTS control unit allows the fabric and strap tension to be adjusted:
•
The dynamic tension makes it possible to brake the unrolling of the fabric or the straps while the system is in motion.
•
The final tension makes it possible to tighten the fabric perfectly when it stops moving.
•
The FTS control unit uses a double push button (stop by pressing both push buttons) for automated operation or Somfy
•
automated systems connected to dry contact pulsed outputs (potential-free).
The safety function of the system when starting stops the system if one of the motors does not start after 1 second,
•
either due to jamming or too much play in the installation.
Compatible with control units, for example Soliris IB sun/wind automated functions or radio remote controls.
•
Possibility of connecting a safety switch (normally closed switch).
•
Thermal safety. Power supply of both actuators cut off in case of heat detection on one of the actuators.
•
Output delay: 6 minutes.
•
Brake: pressing this button releases the brakes of both actuators. The fabric is no longer taught and can be unrolled for
•
assembly operations. The brake button can only be actuated for a maximum of 2 minutes.
Fitting the FTS control unit
The FTS control unit can be fitted outdoors, as long as the
location is protected from the rain and direct sunlight.
The unit is attached with 4 screws.
The cable outlets must be pointed downwards. Unused
outlets must be blocked.
Mounting the control box
Drill holes in the wall according to the drilling plan, and fit the
•
screws with the rubber pad between the washers.
Screw in until the clearance between the washers and the
•
rubber pad has been eliminated.
Position the box on the 4 screws.
•
Tighten the screws until the rubber pads lock into the holes in
•
the box.
Install the cover after wiring.
•
Tighten the screws.
