Basics of Shutters
> Control methods
3 approaches to shutter control
● Individual control
● Up-Down control of each blind/shutter:
● Local control by a switch or directional push-button
● Group control
● Control of a group of blinds:
● 1 group control + individual control
● Centralised control
● Associate groups of blinds:
● 1 centralised control + group controls + individual controls.

Mechanical Push-Button and Switch
What’s the difference?
Push-button
● The shutters move up or down as long as the
button is pressed until the shutter's internal limit
switch is reached.
● Button released The shutter stops immediately.
Double rocker switch
1● One press (pulse) on the first rocker The rocker
stays in position and the shutter moves up or down.
2● Then you can:
2
● press again on the same rocker, in the opposite position
the shutter stops.

3 ● press once on the opposite rocker the first rocker
returns to zero (mechanical lock) and the shutter moves
in the other direction.

Basics of Shutters
> Control methods
Our technologies
● How to install a brightness sensor
● For sun protection, place brightness
sensors on the South and West sides of
the building, which are exposed to the sun
● How to install wind control
We recommend the installation of a wind
sensor:
● For general control, on the roof or on the
windiest side
● For awning protection, close to the shutter
● The conversion unit can be mounted
outdoors (IP55) or indoors.

Temperature: the brightness sensor controls closing/opening when
it's too hot.
In the morning, I'm often in a rush to get to work: the time switch
opens the shutters automatically!
At night, I secure/optimise the temperature of my house. The timeswitch closes my shutters automatically even if I am still out.
The astro function optimises open/close operations wherever I live! 20
