9. Obstacle detection
When, after the teaching of the rst complete, uninterrupted travel from one end position to the
other end position is carried out, the torque needed is learnt.
In any following complete, uninterrupted travel from end position to end position, the torque
needed is automatically readjusted. Slow changes in the installation due to ageing, soiling, cold
or heat are thus automatically taken into consideration.
This process takes place for both running directions independently of one another. If a travel
movement in up direction is blocked by an obstacle, the motor switches off.
The running direction in which the obstacle was recognized is blocked. The block is removed if
the motor has been operated in the opposite direction for a certain time. An obstacle must thus
rst be released before the motor can be operated again in the direction of the obstacle.
10. End position correction
Should an awning elongation have resulted due to temperature changes, this is corrected at the
next end position correction.
If, due temperature changes, modied winding behaviour should arise and the awning should run
against the stop, an immediate end position correction takes place.
11. What to do if…
Problem Solution
Motor does not run. • Motor not plugged in.
Please check the plug connection.
• Check connecting cable for possible
damage.
• Check the mains voltage and allow the
cause of the voltage breakdown to be
tested by a specialist
electrician.
Instead of in the upwards direction, motor
runs downwards.
• The control leads are interchanged.
Exchange black/brown control leads.
Motor only runs in one
direction.
• Motor in the end position.
Run motor in the opposite direction.
Re-adjust the end positions, if necessary.
After running several times,
the motor breaks down and
no longer responds.
• The motor became too hot and has
switched off.
Try it again after a cooling time of about
15 min.
The motor jerks when starting (runs,
stops, runs).
• The programming mode is activated. The
minimum travel distance has not been fully
respected during programming.
12. Maintenance
The drive is maintenance-free.
