For this function, the wind 

speed limit may not be set to 

TEST and the brightness limit 

value may not be set to OFF 

at the weather station.

Switch on precipitation 

monitoring:

 Press the 

 

button on the weather sta-

tion. The status LED lights 

up green permanently when 

precipitation monitoring is 

switched on.

Place receiver 1 into learn 

mode:

 Take the hand-held 

transmitter into which the mas-

ter channel was just learned (I), 

press and hold the learn but-

ton, external venetian blind 1 

waves once, release the button.

Learn in the weather station 

as an auxiliary channel:

 Press 

the 

 button on the weather 

station and hold until the sun 

shading system stops moving 

(the external venetian blind 

waves three times). The weath-

er station is now an auxiliary 

channel for external venetian 

blind 1. The wind, precipitation 

and brightness evaluation was 

learned in at the same time.

End the learn mode:

 Take the 

hand-held transmitter with the 

master channel (I) and press 

the "Up" or "Down" button.

 

External venetian blind 1 now can also be controlled 

with the weather station. 

The weather station evaluates the brightness, precipitation 

and wind speed data and controls the sun shading system 

accordingly.

Testing the weather station

Perform the following steps to test the functions of the 

weather station. 
In the previously described learning procedure, the wind, 

precipitation and photo sensors were learned in together. 

If you discover during the test that one of the sensors was 

not learned in (e.g. due to electromagnetic interference), it 

must be learned in again 

separately

ITNCE

R

If a sensor that has already been learned in is 

learned in again, it is learned out.  

Example:

 During the learning procedure, 

only the precipitation and wind sensors were 

learned in. If the learning procedure is re-

peated, the photo sensor is learned in but the 

precipitation and wind sensors are learned out.

1.  Test the wind monitoring function

 

 

Move the "Wind" switch on the weather station to the 

TEST position. Move the sun shading system down 

slightly and simulate a gust of wind on the wind sen-

sor. The sun shading system should now move up as 

a wind alarm is triggered. The sun shading system 

now cannot be operated for the duration of approx. 

1 minute (wind alarm).

ITNCE

R

In the TEST position, the duration of the wind 

alarm is only approx. one minute, after which 

the system can be operated again. For all other 

settings (see the adjacent limit value table) a 

wind alarm takes approximately 10 minutes. 

The TEST setting should not remain set during 

normal operation since the weather station oth-

erwise continuously sends a wind alarm (high 

power consumption).

If the sun shading system does not move up, the wind 

sensor may not have been learned in. To test whether the 

wind sensor was correctly learned into the receiver:

 

 

Move the "Wind" switch on the weather station to any 

position other than TEST. Move the "Brightness" switch 

to OFF. Lower the sun shading system slightly and 

press the 

 button on the weather station.

 

 

If wind monitoring has been learned in correctly, the 

sun shading system moves down for approx. one 

second. 

If the sun shading system does not move during this test, 

wind monitoring was not learned in. Learn in wind monitoring 

again separately (see „Learning in functions individually“).

In this test, EWFS tubular motors do not re-

spond when the 

 button is pressed.
