Safety instructions
for automatic and alarm functions
In case of power fail at the weather station, the control system cannot actuate the
connected drive mechanisms anymore! If the complete scope of functions must
be guaranteed in case of power fail, an emergency power generator with an
according switch-over from mains operation to emergency operation must be
installed.
Saved settings in the programme of the control also retain in case of power fail.
After the return of voltage, the control is in automatic mode.
If the radio connection between operating unit and weather station is interrupted
(e.g. by radio interference or empty batteries in the operation unit), it is not
possible anymore to take manual action. The control remains in the current mode
(manual or automatic). The automatic mode continues as preset until there is
radio connection again, however without considering the indoor temperature. In
case of a preset manual mode, the wind and rain protection functions are
retained as well.
If cleaning and maintenance works in the environment of the awing(s) or blind(s)
must be accomplished, the control system (weather station) must be switched to
neutral by switching off the installed fuse and be prevented from unintentional
restart. Thus you ensure that the connected drive mechanisms do not start
operation.
In case of beginning rain, a certain period of time, which depends on the amount
of rain, may pass by until the weather station recognises that there is rain.
Please also take into account that e.g. in case of power fail and beginning rain,
exterior awnings are not automatically retracted if there is no emergency power
generator.
Please note that the rails of sun protection systems which are installed outdoor
may ice over. If the awning or blind is then moved, shading and drive mechanism
may be damaged.
Please make absolutely sure that there aren't any persons
within the operating range of unit components which are
operated by an electric motor (danger of crushing!).
The according building regulations must be observed.
