GENERAL WARNINGS
ATTENZIONE!
IMPORTANT
• Important safety instructions: observe these instructions - improper
installation can result in serious injury.
• For personal safety it is important to observe these instructions.
• Keep these instructions.
• All installation procedures, connections, programming and main-
tenance of the product must be performed exclusively by a quali-
fied technician!
• The sensor is not a safety device capable of eliminating dam-
age to the awning due to strong winds (indeed, a simple pow-
er failure can prevent the awning being automatically retracted).
The sensor is rather part of an automation capable of protecting the
awning and facilitating its use.
• The manufacturer is not responsible for damage due to atmospheric events undetected
by the device’s sensors.
• Do not open the device protection housing as it contains non-serviceable electrical
circuits.
• Never apply modifications to any part of the device. Operations other than as speci-
fied can only cause malfunctions. The manufacturer declines all liability for damage
caused by makeshift modifications to the product.
• Never place the device near sources of heat and never expose to naked flames. This
may damage it and cause malfunctions.
• The product is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physi-
cal, sensory or mental capacities, nor by anyone with insufficient experience or fa-
miliarity.
• Make sure that children do not play with the product.
• The unit is solar powered. The photovoltaic cell must be exposed to sunlight through-
out the day; make sure that its photosensitive surface is always clean and unobstructed
by leaves, snow or other matter: clean it with a soft damp cloth, do not use alcohol,
benzene, solvents or other agents when cleaning it.
• Handle the product with care, making sure not to crush, strike or drop it.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND
INTENDED USE
1
The product is a climatic sensor intended for use in automation systems for awnings,
shutters, skylights, etc. with compatible tubular motors and control units.
Any other
use is to be considered improper and is strictly prohibited! The manu-
facturer declines all liability for damage resulting from improper use
of the product and other than as specified in this manual.
The sensor has an integral radio transmitter and is solar powered; at night it uses the
charge stored up during the day, and thus does not require a mains power connec-
tion. The other components of the device are indicated in the Quick reference guide
(Step 1 -
fig. A
).
Product operation is based on real-time readings of variations in wind speed and sun-
light intensity (TGWS only) . When the climatic sensor readings violate their thresholds
(either above or below), the sensor transmits a radio signal to the motor’s automation
receiver, which in turn activates an Up or Down manoeuvre, depending on the type
of signal received (above or below the threshold). Up to 3 sensors can be installed
on a single automation system, thus enabling data acquisition at different points of the
environment.
PRELIMINARY INSTALLATION CHECKS
AND PRODUCT APPLICATION LIMITS
2
• Read the technical specifications provided in the chapter “Product technical specifica-
tions” to check the application limits of the sensor.
• (
fig. 1
) In favourable conditions (unobstructed field), the transmission range of the sen-
sor is 100 m, however, since the sensor is intended to protect the awning, it is advis-
able to install it at most 10-20 m away from the motor. We also recommend check-
ing that the zone is clear of other wireless devices transmitting on the same frequency,
such as alarms, wireless headsets, etc.: they can further reduce the range or even
block the transmissions of the device to the motor.
• Make sure that the sensor’s installation zone satisfies the following requisites:
– (
fig. 2
) it must allow for full and direct sunlight exposure of the sun sensor surface
(TGWS only) and the photovoltaic power cell; never install the product in zones
subject to shade from awnings, trees, balconies etc. or below a source of intense
artificial light;
– (
fig. 3
) the area must ensure exposure of the wind sensor blades to the same venti-
lation as that applied on the sun awning to be automated.
