5. Instructions for start-up
THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE INTENDED FOR TECHNICAL AND SPECIALIZED PERSONNEL.
THUS BASIC SAFETY AND WORKING TECHNIQUES ARE NOT DISCUSSED.
Standby state
When the batteries are inserted, the radio remote control goes into a standby state; the display is
off and the microprocessor is in the power down state, so the entire device is in a state of very low
consumption.
The radio remote control returns to this state whenever 30 seconds have passed since the last
button was pressed.
Wait state
If any of the 7 buttons is pressed when the radio remote control is in standby, it awakens and enters the
wait state. The display shows the channel (one of the 30) selected before the radio remote control went
into standby state.
Selection of the channel
To select a (new) channel, press the CH button; the displayed channel starts flashing. Use the
▲(UP) arrow or ▼(DOWN) arrow buttons to select the desired channel, which flashes. By pressing
the CH button again, the channel display becomes steady-on.
If the newly selected channel is not activated by pressing the CH button, after a standby or the next
time the radio remote control passes to the wait state, the last channel that was previously
activated will appear on the display.
Storage of the M1 and M2 memory groups
The “sequence storage” state (Mbutton) provides the possibility to assign two distinct “memory
groups”, i.e., two memories. The storage is carried out as follows.
Memory M1
♦
Press the Mbutton for 5 seconds to store the memory 1; the icon M1 appears flashing on
the display.
♦
Scroll through the channels using the ▲▼ arrows, and the various channels will flash. To
enter the channel in the memory, press the STOP button, the channel stops flashing and
becomes steady-on; carry out this operation for all the channels you would like to store, up
to a maximum of 10 channels.
♦
To exit the channel storing mode, press the Mbutton again for at least 1 second.
♦
To erase the memory, go to the channel 00 and press the STOP button. After the memory has
been erased, all the channels start flashing. To exit, press the Mbutton again for 1 second.

Page 6
Memory M2
♦
Press the M button for 5 seconds, and the flashing icon M1 appears. Now press the CH
button and the icon M2 will appear flashing on the display.
♦
Scroll through the channels using the ▲▼ arrows, and the various channels will flash. To
enter the channel in the memory, press the STOP button, the channel stops flashing and
becomes steady-on; carry out this operation for all the channels you would like to store, up
to a maximum of 10 channels.
♦
To exit the channel storing mode, press the M button again for at least 1 second.
♦
To erase the memory, go to the channel 00 and press the STOP button. After the memory
has been erased, all the channels start flashing. To exit, press the M button again for 1
second.
Checking the composition of a memory sequence
♦
From the wait state, press the M button; the M1 icon will be activated.
♦
The stored sequence of channels appears on the display (e.g.: 1-2-3-4-pause, 1-2-3-4-
pause, etc.).
Control of a stored sequence - M1 and M2 Memories.
Starting from the wait state, press the Mbutton and the steady-on M1 icon will appear on the
display; using the ▲▼ buttons activates the function, transmitting the command to the channels of
the M1 sequence. The stored channels scroll cyclically and continuously on the display.
Starting from the wait state, press the M+CH button and the steady-on M2 icon will appear on the
display; using the ▲▼ buttons activates the function, transmitting the command to the channels of
the M2 sequence. The stored channels scroll cyclically and continuously on the display.
The STOP button stops the command.
Press the Mbutton once to exit from the memory sequence control state, and the M1 or M2 icon
disappears; now it is possible to activate the commands of all the individual channels.
F1 and F2 Function buttons
The F1 and F2 function buttons are dedicated exclusively to the applications controlling the
dedicated motors constructed to carry out certain tasks in complete autonomy, that is:
A. Motors dedicated to ventilation on sash / hopper windows;
B. Motors for applications controlling the SYSTEM TRIS.
A. Sash / hopper - ventilation application
Before each operation with the F1 and F2 functions, the desired channel should be selected
and then the function can be executed:
♦
Sash function. Press the F1 button; the steady-on F1 icon appears on the display.
Pressing the ▲button activates the “Sash Function”. The window can be opened
manually.
To cancel the F1 function, first close the window and then press the F1 button; the icon
disappears from the display.
♦
Ventilation function. Press the F2 button; the steady-on F2 icon appears on the display.
Pressing the ▲button activates the automatic “Ventilation Function”.
To cancel the F2 function, press the F2 button; the F2 icon disappears from the display.
Once inside the menu of one of the two “memory groups” (M1 or M2), whenever
the F1 or F2 button is pressed, the respective steady-on icons appear on the
display (M1, M2, F1, F2). This means that the respective group of channels can
now be controlled.

Page 7
B. Application for SYSTEM TRIS motors – 3 Motors for: window, blinds and rolling
shutter
♦
The actuator for the window is controlled directly by the channel selected with the ▲▼
buttons.
♦
To operate the motor of the internal blinds, the F1 function is used.
Press the F1 button; the steady-on F1 icon appears on the display. Pressing the
▲(open) ▼(close) buttons activates the command to the internal blinds.
To cancel the F1 function, press the F1 button again; the icon disappears from the
display.
♦
To operate the motor of the external rolling shutter, the F2 function is used.
Press the F2 button; the steady-on F2 icon appears on the display. Pressing the
▲(open) ▼(close) buttons activates the command to the external rolling shutter.
To cancel the F2 function, press the F2 button again; the icon disappears from the
display.
Once inside the menu of one of the two “memory groups” (M1 or M2), whenever
the F1 or F2 button is pressed, the respective steady-on icons appear on the
display (M1, M2, F1, F2). This means that the respective group of channels can
now be controlled.
WARNING:
For all the other “normal” applications – i.e., those not supported by the devices
described above - where the radio remote control is used, regardless of the channel
number on which it is set, if the steady-on F1 or F2 icon appears on the display,
NOTHING MOVES when the ▲▼ buttons are pressed because these functions are not
associated with any type of command.
IN THIS CASE,THE F1 AND F2 ICONS SHOULD NEVER APPEAR ON THE DISPLAY DURING USE.
The simultaneous combination F1+F2, active on the display, is a special function regarding certain
machines which is described in the manual of the specific machine.
6. Battery status indication
The level of the battery charge is measured at each passage from the standby state to the wait
state. The level is shown on the display using the battery indicator:
Level above 2.6V: 3 bars lit
Level between 2.4V and 2.6V: 2 bars lit
Level between 2.2V and 2.4V: 1 bar lit
Level below 2.2V: 0 bars lit – all off
