3. USE AND MAINTENANCE
3.1. CHARGING THE BATTERY
After installing and commissioning the Oximo 40 DC RTS kit (Oximo 40 WF RTS motor, Somfy battery, Somfy solar panel), the battery
charges with electrical energy via the solar panel.
The electrical energy transmitted by the solar panel is stored by the battery to supply the Oximo 40 WF RTS motor.
3.2. PROTECTING THE BATTERY AGAINST EXCESSIVE DISCHARGE
Each time the motor receives an up or down command, it checks the battery voltage
to ensure it is not discharged below 10 V.
If the battery voltage is above 11.5 V, the motor is operating normally:
If the voltage is below 11.5 V and above 10 V:
-
When the Up button is pressed, the roller shutter stops briefly when rising.
-
When the
Down
or
my
, button is pressed, the roller shutter does not perform the
requested operation but performs two brief movements in the same direction.
-
These actions indicate a low battery level.
If the voltage is below 10 V, the roller shutter does not move.
Thanks to the solar panel, the battery voltage will increase again to 12 V and the
motor will resume normal operation.
There is nevertheless an alternative solution for recharging the battery thanks to the
Somfy-compatible external battery charger (Oximo WireFree
™
charger, not supplied).
3.3. MAINTENANCE
Attention
• Any use of another battery charger is prohibited.
• Never leave the battery discharged.
The service life of the Oximo WireFree
™
Battery Stick is approximately 8 years (estimation for an average operating temperature of 20°C).
If the roller shutter behaves abnormally as described in the previous section and the motor does not return to normal operation after a sunny
period, there has probably been a major discharge from the Oximo WireFree™ Battery Stick. In this instance, the Oximo WireFree™ Battery
Stick needs to be charged by a motorisation and home automation professional using the Somfy-compatible external battery charger.
If this occurs on a regular basis, the battery must be replaced or the orientation of the solar panel must be changed by a motorisation and
home automation professional.
3.4. TIPS AND ADVICE FOR USE
3.4.1. Recharging and replacing the battery
To recharge or replace the Oximo WireFree™ Battery Stick, contact a motorisation and home automation professional.
Please separate storage cells and batteries from other types of waste and recycle them via your local collection facility.
