the manual UP/DOWN/STOP commands.
Sun control
OFF :
the SOLIRIS IB reacts in accordance with the wind information and with the
manual UP/DOWN/STOP commands.
The potentiometers allow the threshold values for brightness and wind speed to be set.
The wind and sun controls can be checked as follows
- Set the sun control sliding switch to Sun control ON :

All manual or
automatic
commands are
inhibited as long as the
wind speed is higher
than the adjusted
threshold.
When the wind
speed exceeds the
threshold set on
the SOLIRIS IB, the
red LED lights on
and the awning is
retracted after 2
seconds.
When the wind
speed falls be-
low the threshold
setting, the red
LED begins to blink.
A manual control can be
given after 30 seconds and
an automatic sun control
can be given after 12 minutes.

Wind control operation
WIND
Wind speed setting range: 5-80 km/h
Factory setting: approx. 20 km/h
SUN
Brightness setting range: 20-60 kLux
Factory setting: approx. 35 kLux
after 2 secs.
When the daylight level falls below the threshold setting, the yellow
LED blinks and the awning is automatically retracted after a variable
timing between 30 to15 mins.
This timing depends on the sun presence duration and it avoids fre-
quent movements of the awning on cloudy days.
short period of sun (< 30’)
➜
30 mins. before retraction.
long period of sun (> 90’)
➜
15 mins. before retraction.
Moreover, If the daylight falls below 12 kLux, the timing is decreased
to approx. 5 minutes to retract the awning more quickly at twilight.
When the intensity
of the daylight ex-
ceeds the threshold
set by the SOLIRIS
IB, the yellow LED
lights on and a DOWN order is sent
to the awning after 2 minutes.
The awning goes to the intermediate position IP (see
4.2) or to its down end limit position if no intermediate
position has been memorised.
