General information
Fig. 1
EWFS Piccolo FZL
The Piccolo FZL EWFS radio receiver is an electronic
control device for the direct actuation of 230 V AC sun
shading drives. It can receive move commands from
EWFS-compatible transmitters. The switching contacts
are floating. The receiver is supplied with 24 V DC either
via an existing control line, a floor distribution control or a
power supply unit. The receiver can be operated by means
of an overriding sun shading control system. Because of
its compact design, the receiver can be installed in a flush-
mounted junction box.
Intended use
The Piccolo FZL EWFS radio receiver was developed to
control sun shading systems. The approval of the manu-
facturer must be obtained for uses outside of the purpos-
es listed in these instructions.
Safety instructions
WARIRG
W
The electrical installation must be per-
formed by a certified electrician in
accordance with the electrical installation
regulations published by the Wssocia-
tion of German Electrical Engineers (VDE
0100) or the standards and regulations of
the country in which the device is being
installed. The electrician must observe the
installation instructions included with the
electrical device.
WARIRG
W
If hazard-free operation cannot be assumed,
the device may not be started or must be deac-
tivated. This is the case if
the housing or the supply lines show
signs of damage
the device is no longer working.
WATIIR
C
Never activate buttons on your transmitter
arbitrarily without visual contact to the sun
shading product. Children may not play with
this product - Remote controls or transmit-
ters may not get into the hands of children!
The radio control range is limited by legal regulations for
radio systems and by structural factors. Adequate radio
reception must be ensured when planning the project.
This applies especially if the radio signal must penetrate
through walls and ceilings. The control unit should not be
installed in the immediate vicinity of metal components
(steel beams, steel-reinforced concrete, fire door).
Therefore, check that the receiver is functioning prop-
erly before the final installation.
Strong local transmitter systems (e.g. baby monitors or
neighbouring transmitters) can interfere with the reception.
Function
ATL (radio time mode):
This mode is useful for slat products: By briefly activat-
ing (approx. 0.6 seconds) the "Up" or "Down" button on
the transmitter, you can adjust the sun shading product in
small steps. This function can be used with slat products
to tilt the slats. If the button continues to be activated, the
radio time mode switches to the lock mode. The button
may then be released. The sun shading system moves
until the fixed run time of three minutes has expired. To
release the lock and stop the motor, the button for the op-
posite direction of movement or the stop button must be
pressed briefly.
Central operation
The local operation is blocked for the duration of a central
command; any current move commands are deleted.
