General information
Fig. 1
EWFS Plug receiver
The EWFS Plug receivers enable the simple and cost-
effective retrofitting of a wireless remote control for sun
shade drives. Absolutely no electrical installation work
is required for this. The plug receivers can receive move
commands from EWFS-compatible transmitters, such as
EWFS Hand-held transmitters, EWFS Timers or EWFS
Weather stations, and are available with two different oper-
ating modes: permanent mode (PL) and radio time mode
(FZL).
Intended use
The device was developed to control sun shading sys-
tems. The approval of the manufacturer must be obtained
for uses outside of the purposes listed in these instruc-
tions.
Safety instructions
WARIRG
W
The electrical installation must be per-
formed by a certified electrician in accord-
ance with the electrical installation regula-
tions published by the Wssociation of Ger-
man 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 deactivated. This assumption is
justified if
The housing or the supply lines show
signs of damage
The device is no longer working.
WARIRG
W
Switch off the supply voltage of the EWFS
Plug receiver when you perform activi-
ties on products connected to the plug
receiver. Danger due to sudden movements
of the equipment or electric shock.
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 transmitters
must not get into the hands of children!
The range of radio controls is restricted by legal regula-
tions for radio systems and through structural factors.
Adequate radio reception must be ensured when plan-
ning 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).
n
Therefore, check that the receiver is functioning proper-
ly before the final installation.
Strong local transmitter systems (e.g. baby monitors or
neighbouring transmitters) can interfere with the reception.
Function
EWFS Plug receiver PL (permanent mode):
This operating mode is useful for fabric products and
roller shutters: The sun shading product responds to the
operation of the UP or DOWN button on the transmitter by
moving in the corresponding direction and immediately
goes into lock mode. The button may be released immedi-
ately and the sun shading system will move until the fixed
run time of 3 minutes has expired. To release the lock and
stop the motor, the button for the opposite direction of
movement or the stop button must be pressed briefly.
EWFS Plug receiver FZL (radio time logic):
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.
