1. Reading the installation and operating instructions
The operating instructions must be read prior to
installation. Any failure to do so absolves the manufacturer
of any duty of liability
1.1. Safety notes and warnings relating to installation
instructions
Safety notes can be found throughout the text. They are
marked with a symbol and a note:
Important safety information:
Notes that are important for the functioning of the product
and can result in serious injury or death in the event of
improper use are marked with this warning triangle.
Important safety information:
This warning triangle indicates notes that are important
for the functioning of the product and that if not followed
represent a risk of electrocution that can result in serious
injury or death.
1.2. Qualification
These installation instructions are aimed exclusively at quali-
fied fitters with sound knowledge in the following areas:
 Health and safety at work and accident
prevention regulations
 Handling of ladders and scaffolding
 Handling and transport of long, heavy
components
 Working with tools and machines
 Attaching fasteners Assessing the fabric of

Electrical work:
The permanent electrical installation must be carried
out by a qualified electrician in accordance with the national
regulations. Installation instructions are enclosed with the
electrical appliances supplied with the awning. These must
be followed.
1.3. Goods acceptance
The delivery must be inspected immediately upon receipt for
any damage sustained in transit. In addition, the contents of
the shipment must be checked against the delivery note.
1.4. Transport
The permitted axle load and permitted total weight of
the transport vehicle may not be exceeded. Loading can
effect the vehicle's handling.
The goods being transported are to be tied down and
properly secured. The shade system packaging is to be
protected against moisture. Any soaked packaging may
disintegrate and result in accidents. Packaging opened for
the purpose of goods receipt inspection must be properly
taped up for further transportation.
After the awning is unloaded, it is to be transported to the

NB:
Supplied without installation materials (available as accesso
ries). Installation materials need to be matched by the fitter to
the given installation substructure.
Where fastening materials ordered with the system are used
we do not simultaneously assume liability for proficient
installation. The installer is exclusively liable for determining if
the fastening materials for the respective masonry are suitable
and for the installation being performed properly. The wall
plug manufacturers' respective fitting guides must be followe
1.7. Fasteners
The awning fulfils the requirements of the wind resistance
category specified in the CE conformity mark (see operating
instructions). In installed condition, this requirement is only
met if:
 the awning is installed using the type and number
of brackets recommended by the manufacturer
(see point 1.17 on page 6+7)
 the awning is installed taking account of the wall
plug extraction forces specified by the manufacturer
(see point 1.17 on page 6+7)
 that during installation attention has been paid to the
guidance of the manufacturer of the wall plugs used.
1.8. Climbing aids
Climbing aids may not be attached to or leant against
the awning. They must be steady and provide adequate grip.
Only use ladders that are certified for the proper load
bearing weight.
1.9. Fall protection equipment
There is a risk of falling when working at any significant
height. The appropriate fall protection equipment is to be
used to guard against falls
1.10. Electrical connection
The awning may only be connected if the electric motor's
specifications match the electricity source (see operating
instructions). The electrical component installation notes
supplied with the unit must be followed.
The unit is to be protected with an upstream FI circuit
breaker in accordance with VDE regulations.
Only cables and connectors with a protection class of a
minimum of IP 54 may be used to supply power.
1.11. Partially assembled awnings
Where awnings are partially assembled at the factory,
e.g. linked systems with no fabric, the spring-loaded parts
(see marking on the product) are secured against inadvertent
opening. The securing device must not be removed until the
blind has been completely installed.
These marked, spring-loaded blind components present
a high risk of injury!
1.12. Intended use
Awnings may be used only for the purpose defined for
them in the operating instructions. Changes, such as attach
ments and modifications not intended by the manufacturer
may only be carried out with the manufacturer's written
consent.
Additional loading of the awnings by attaching objects or by
cable tensioning or the like can result in damage to the
awning or to it falling down; this is not permitted.

Subject to technical changes - Edition 10.2020
1.13. Unsupervised operation
When working in the extension area of the awning, the
automatic controller must be turned off. There is a risk of
crushing or falling.
In addition, ensure that the system cannot be unintentionally
manually operated. For this purpose, the power is to be cut,
e.g. take out the fuse or disconnect the plug. Furthermore, in
the case of manual operating systems the operating crank
must be removed and securely stored.
If the awning is used by several users, a priority locking
system (controlled external electricity turn-off switch) must
be used, which makes the retraction and extension of the
awning impossible during cleaning and maintenance work.
1.14. Trial run
The first time the system is extended, no one is permit-
ted in the extension area of or under the awning.
A visual check must be made of the fasteners and brackets
after the first trial run.
During trial runs the automatic control or switch may not be
used if the awning is out of the operator's sight (there is a risk
of unintended extension/retraction). The use of a test cable
to turn on the motor is recommended.
The installation and adjustment instructions included with
the awning from the manufacturers of the motor, switch and
controller must be followed.
1.15. Crush and shear zones
There are crush and shear zones between drop bar
and tube/cassette and/or covers near the joint arm and
moving sections. Clothing i.e. body parts can be pulled
into the system!
If the awning is being installed at a height of less than
2.5 metres above accessible thoroughfares, it may be turned
on only by a push button switch from which there is a view of
the moving parts. Electrical controllers, radio drives with
latching function, latching switches, etc. are not permissible
in this case.
The push-button switch must be fitted within sight of the
drop bar but away from the moving parts. Ideally it should
be fitted at a height of 1.3 metres (national regulations
relating to the disabled must be observed).
1.16. Handover
All operating instructions as well as the installation
and adjustment instructions issued by the motor, switch and
controller manufacturers are to be handed over to the user
with an induction session. The user is to be instructed
comprehensively on safety and on use of the awning.
Failure to follow the instructions or any incorrect operation
can cause accidents and damage to the awning.
All instructions are to be kept by the customer for future
reference and must be passed on to the new owner if the
awning is sold.
Based on knowledge of the particular circumstances at the
site and the finished installation, the installation firm will
tell the user whether the wind resistance class specified by
the manufacturer has been achieved in the installed conditi
on. If not, the installation company must document the wind
resistance class actually attained.
Recommendation:
If you are the fitter, have the awning’s correct installation
and set-up, the time of installation and details of the accep
tance meeting, including that you explained the safety
information, confirmed in writing.

Important safety instructions for the installation
nova_02 tube awning installation instructions
So that the wind resistance class specified by us is valid, the fasteners must be matched to the existing substructure by the fitter.
Where orders are received without specification of the installation substructure, you will receive mounting brackets for mounting on concrete C 20/25. Please note that these
brackets may not be suitable for installation on other substructures. In order to satisfy DIN EN 13561, it is necessary to fit the type and number of brackets recommended for each
product. It is essential to observe the defined wall plug extraction forces as well as the mounting and installation instructions given by the manufacturer of the fasteners (including
the edge and hole distances). Precise extraction forces in relation to the thickness of the insulating plaster and the desired bracket set as well as to installation on other substructures
on request.
Coupled systems are counted as two individual systems (system width = 1/2 total width). The bracket set (K set) is required twice.

plastic eyelet (35) again.
When adjusting the end stop outwards (projection
becomes greater):
Using the crank handle, slightly wind the awning in
(c. 1 cm) in order to take pressure off the end stop.
Then wind out to the desired end position.
This short movement prevents any damage to
the adjustment cogging.
When adjusting the end stop inwards (projection
becomes smaller):
Using the crank handle, wind the awning in to the
desired end position.
Take off eyelet and extension and tighten securing
screw (37) again.
Then fit extension (20), plastic eyelet (35) and
side cap (2) again.
Check setting by retracting by c. 50 cm and then
extending until the free-wheel clutch activates (clear
'click' sound).
Note:
Wind in UP direction (wall direction)
= projection gets smaller
Wind in DOWN direction (projection direction)
= projection gets bigger

Protective sleeve for Hirschmann coupling
(accessories)
The protective sleeve (38) for a Hirschmann coupling
can be screwed to the wall or ceiling. It should be
installed with the open side facing down. This ensures
that any incoming water or rain can drain away.
1. The protective sleeve can be secured to even and
smooth surfaces, such as a powder-coated carrier
bar, coated metal, and to stable and smooth plastic
substructures using adhesive.
Substructures such as plaster, concrete or wood,
and structured substructures, are not suitable for
adhesive.
Insert the plug-in caps (39) at the top of the
protective sleeve (38). Insert the two decorative
plugs (40) into the unused holes. Insert the
Hirschmann plug (41) into the protective sleeve
from below and secure with the splint (42).
Remove the protective film from the adhesive tape
(43) on the back of the protective sleeve. Stick the
protective sleeve in the required position on the
designated substructure and press down firmly
2. Screw fitting
Insert the plug-in caps (39) at the top of the
protective sleeve (38). Attach the protective sleeve
to the wall or ceiling using the S6 dowel and a

11. Coupling
Caution:
Only remove the arms' securing tapes after the
fabric tube's coupling.
Here is a lot of tension on the joint arms -
Risk of injury!
Install the awning section with the drive in the
same way as a single unit. Hook the joint arm
brackets (6) of the field, that is being connected, in
to the brackets (3) and push on to the coupling
bracket (45).
1. Connecting the fabric tube
Push the two spacers (46) on to the coupling
square (47). The fields, that are being connected,
must have the same number of fabric layers and
the piping channels on the fabric tubes must be
aligned.
When sliding on the field, that is being connected,
the coupling square (47) must be pushed into the
fabric tube insert (48) on the field being
connected. Do not forget the spacers (46). Press
the tube together gently and push into the
coupling bracket (45).
Secure the square with the threaded pin (49)
(SW3). Fix in place with a 3.9x14.5 countersunk
self-tapping screw (50) and a size2 Phillips
screwdriver.
2. Secure the connected awning section to the
brackets using the threaded pins on the arm
bracket (see installation instructions p.12, point3)
(SW4 Allen key).
3. Remove the retaining straps from the joint arms.
4. Extend the awning fully.
Check that the drop bars for both fields are at the
same height horizontally. If they are not level,
proceed as described in the installation instruc-
tions, p.13 “Tilt setting”.
Important for tension-free installation!
5. Retract the awning.
Check the fabric spacing. The spacing to the left
and right of the coupling bracket must be the
same.
Adjust if not.
6. Extend the awning fully.
7. Connecting the drop bar
Push in the top connector profile with the sliding
block (51) facing downwards until it is halfway into
the drop bar (8) groove. Then repeat this process
for the drop bar that is being connected. Align the
connector profile in the centre and screw tight
(SW6 Allen key).
8. Push the valance into the drop bar groove. Push
the end cap onto the drop bar and secure with
countersunk screws.

Adjustment instructions for Elero SunTop drives
Subject to technical changes - Edition 10.2020
nova_02 tube awning installation instructions
A. Note for the electrical installer
This awning must not be connected with the power live. Take fuse out beforehand!
There is a risk of the electronic end position setting being deleted. Resetting this is possible
only with the special Elero setting cable (prod. no. 99-1085).
The system is to be protected with an upstream FI circuit breaker in accordance with
VDE regulations. Only cables and connectors with a protection class of a minimum of
IP 54 may be used to supply power
B. Important Notice
This unit is fitted with an electronic SunTop motor. The special Elero setting cable has to
be used to set the end positions. A conventional test cable can be used to operate the
unit, but not to set it!
The electronics within the drive unit function only when built into the fabric tube!
Work on the mains power may be carried out only by authorised specialists!
After setting the drive's end positions, secure these installation instructions to the cable
for the electrician!
When using your own control systems not included with the product (e.g. wind/sun sensors
or similar), you must ensure that a switch-over pause from retract to extend command of at
least 0.5 seconds is set in the controller.
Where operation is via switches, only push-button switches with a 'dead-man' circuit are
permissible and they must mutually disable each other.
In accordance with VDE regulations, the motor may not be supplied with continuous current.
Otherwise the SunTop drive cannot be guaranteed to function reliably!
Note: It is possible to connect multiple SunTop drives in parallel (max. 430 W per drive).
If doing so, pay attention to the switching point's maximum switching capacity.
D. End position setting
The end position setting of the SunTop drive is set at the factory and does not normally need any correction. If you do,
nevertheless, want to set the drive's end positions differently, please note the following points:
C. Connection example
Press the DOWN button until the
drive automatically stops.
The top end position has now
been set.
Press the DOWN button again.
Run out the awning to just
before the desired bottom end
position. The drive starts with a
short STOP.
Move to the desired bottom
end position.
Corrections can be made via
the buttons.
The end positions are now set as
wished and the drive moves into
the respective end position.
Connect the Hirschmann
coupling to the control line again.
With this new drive there is no
need to simultaneously press the
UP and DOWN buttons after
resetting the end positions.
Pressing both buttons simulta-
neously would put the drive back
into programming mode (see
point 1).
Connect the Elero setting cable to the drive's Hirschmann coup
ling and run the unit out 30 cm. At the same time, press both
buttons on the setting cable. After c. 5 seconds, the drive goes
briefly up and down. The end positions have now been deleted
and can be reset.
Press the UP button again. Move
up to the top end stop. When the
stop is reached, the drive auto-
matically switches off.
Press the UP button until the drive
automatically stops.
The bottom end position has now
been set and the programming
finished.

Special features of radio control systems
Features of the radio transmitters
Radio control systems' range is limited by the statutory regulations for wireless equipment and the
structural circumstances.
The control system should not be installed in the immediate vicinity of any metallic surfaces. Strong local
transmitter units (e.g. wireless headphones) that have a transmission frequency identical to the control
system can have an influence on its function. The transmission range is up to 300 metres in the open and
c. 20 metres inside buildings. The operating instructions of the Somfy radio transmitters being used must
be followed.
All suitable Somfy radio transmitters can be paired with and operate the OREA RTS drive,
e.g.: Telis 1 RTS, Telis 4 RTS, Telis Soliris RTS, Centralis RTS.
A maximum of 12 transmitters (including a maximum of 3 Sensor RTS transmitters) can be paired
with each OREA RTS drive.
Changing the lower end position
(Only necessary if the factory setting is to be altered)
The top and bottom end positions are set at the factory and do not
normally need any further programming.
If necessary, the bottom end position can be changed (the top end
position always stays the same).T.
