STR-3D
Roller blind controller
for 230 V AC
STR-3D controller is designed to control roller blinds ()
or other objects (e.g. gates) that are driven with single-phase
alternating current electric motor with momentary switch (eg.
bell).
The controller can operate as a stand-alone device (for opening/
closing of a single roller blind), but it is also possible to combine
controllers into groups to central control multiple roller blinds.
Roller blind motor starts after momentary passing of the N si-
gnal to one of the control inputs. The motor activates for the
user-programmed time that allows to fully lift or lower the roller
blind. The controller power supply is indicated by a green LED.
Motor operation and direction of roller blinds movement is indi-
cated by the corresponding red ↓ or ↑ LED.

Do not dispose of this device in the trash along with other waste! According
to the Law on Waste, electro coming from households free of charge and
can give any amount to up to that end point of collec� on, as well as to sto-
re the occasion of the purchase of new equipment (in accordance with the
principle of old-for-new, regardless of brand). Electro thrown in the trash or
abandoned in nature, pose a threat to the environment and human health.

Roller blind can be stopped on the user-selected level (incomple-
te opening or closing of the roller blind).
Controller control inputs are divided into two groups: local con-
trol and central control.
Depending on how you connect the controller, it can operate in
one or two local keys mode.
One local key
Local control input is connected permanently to the N
line. Local control input is connected to a key that alternate-
ly switches the roller blind to move up or down. Short press
(<0.5 s) switches on the blind for a programmed time. Pressing
the key when the roller blind is already in motion causes the roll-
er blind to stop. Long press (>0.5 s) switches on the roller blind
for as long as the key is pressed.
Each time you press the key the roller blind will move in the di-
rection opposite to the previous one.
Two local keys
Each direction of movement has its own local key. Short press
(<0.5 s) switches on the roller blind to move in a given direction
for the programmed period of time. Pressing the key when the
roller blind is already in motion causes the roller blind to stop.
Long press (>0.5 s) switches on the roller blind to move in a given
direction for as long as the key is pressed (this allows for example
to adjust the tilt of slats).
Control

- 3 -
Memory of direction applies both to local and central
control. For example, if the controller carries out a
command, then the next press of a local key
will move the roller blind down.
Memory of direction is not retained after a power fail-
ure.
The controller always works with two central control inputs.
Central control allows the roller blinds to move only in the de-
sired direction. Roller blind will stop only after a preset time or
by pressing any of the local control keys.
If during the execution of one center control command another
one is issued with the instruction to move in the opposite di-
rection, the roller blind will stop at first and after 1.5 s will then
start to move in the opposite direction. Time of roller blind acti-
vation can be randomly delayed in the control center (up to 1 s)
to minimize the current surge in the grid in case of simultaneous
activation of multiple controllers.

key can also close and lock the roller
blind in the closed position. If the key
is pressed and left in the position, the controller will
close the roller blind and will not allow for its opening
until the key is released (other inputs
will then be locked). This function allows you to lock the
roller blinds e.g. when the alarm is armed or when the
rainfall (if the additional STR-R rain sensor is used) or
too strong wind (if the additional STR-W wind sensor is
used) is detected.
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2.Mount the controller on the rail in the distribution box.
3.Connect the controller accordingly to the selected scheme of
operation.
The controllers can be powered from any phase of the
mains (also in the case of a multiple controllers oper-
ating under common central control). It is important to
retain a common N line and to control inputs by the level
of the neutral N line.
Both power cables and control cables must be properly
shielded adequately to the voltage.
4.Switch on the power supply.
5.Program the time of lifting/lowering the roller blind.
Mounting

Time of activation can be programmed upon the assumed time
of roller blind operation or by activating the roller blind for the
test run:
Scheduling for the specified time
1.Press and hold (for approx. 4 s) the key until the green
U LED will begin to flash slowly. The controller is now ready
for programming.
2.Short press key – the controller starts to measure out
the activation time, which is indicated by rapid flashing of U
LEDs.
3.After the time has been measured out, press the key
again. The controller will save the elapsed time in non-volatile
memory and then exit the programming mode, which is indi-
cated by the constant U LED light.
Test run
1.Place the blind in the outmost top or bottom position.
2. Press and hold (for approx. 4 s) the key until the green
U LED will begin to flash slowly. The controller is now ready
for programming.
3.Short press the local control or key (in the opposite
direction to the current position of the roller blind). The con-
troller starts the motor and begins to measure out the time.
4. After the time has been measured out, press any of the local
control keys. The roller blind motor will stop and the controller
will save the elapsed time in "non-volatile" memory and then
exit the programming mode.

Wiring diagram
If during the first 30 seconds of the learning mode (slow
flashing of U LED) the time measuring will not start (the
key is pressed or the roller blind is activated from
the local control input), the controller will exit the learn-
ing mode.
The controller is designed to measure time span shorter
than 15 min. Attempting to set the controller for longer
span will result in exit from the learning mode.
The controller learning mode can be started only when
the roller blind motor is turned off.
Operation with factory settings (activation time set to 30
seconds) is indicated in standby mode by short (0.1 s)
blinking of U LED repeated every 4 s.
