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 may not get into the hands of
children!

The receiver (e.g. the radio plug receiver,
radio tubular motor) cannot function in the
event of a power failure. Therefore, raise the
sun shading system early enough in case of
an approaching storm.
The radio control range is limited by legal regulations for
radio systems and by structural factors. Adequate radio
reception must be taken into consideration when planning
the system. This is particularly important when the radio
signal must pass 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).
Therefore, check that the receiver is functioning
properly before the final installation.
Strong local transmitter systems (e.g. baby monitors or
neighbouring transmitters) can interfere with the reception.
Tnstallation
This device is designed for surface mounting on a building
facade. It can also be mounted on a pole using the
included cable ties.
Included fixing materials:
2 screws 4.5 x 40 mm
2 dowels 6 mm
2 spacers for wall and ceiling installation (Fig. 2)
2 steel cable ties 360 mm
Use suitable fixing materials only. Depending on the
substructure (e.g. plastered outer insulation), other screws
and dowels may need to be used.
Tmportant information on the installation location
Attach the device outdoors at a readily accessible but
raised location.
Metal-clad buildings, domestic interference sources
(unshielded household appliances, television sets,
computers), supply lines and metallic objects such
as sheet metal enclosures must have a distance of at
least 0.5 m from the weather station.
Install the device in a position in which the wind
wheel is horizontal (housing inclination of 15°). When
installing the device on sloped surfaces, the sensor
can be positioned horizontally using the joint (Fig. 1).

Mounting plate with cover
A USB connecting cable to the alternative power
supply during commissioning is found under the cover.
The EWFS Weather station eco enables the wireless
control of sun shading drives and is equipped with
sensors for brightness and wind speed. The station is
solar powered. The device sends move commands to
EWFS-compatible receivers.
Tntended use
The EWFS Weather station is an electronic device
to control sun shading systems. The approval of the
manufacturer must be obtained for uses outside of the
purposes listed in these instructions.
