7. Important information prior to electrical installation and mounting
Installation and electrical connection of the Troll Basic DuoFern may only be
undertaken with the supplied installation housing [ 3 ].
The connecting terminals [ 4 ] are located at the bottom of the installation housing [ 3 ].
NOTE
Installation housings for other variants of theTroll controller are not compatible.
Parallel connection of electronic tubular motors
A maximum of 3 tubular motors can be connected in parallel to theTroll Basic DuoFern (e.g.
RADEMACHER electronic tubular motors).
To do so, please refer to the operating manual for the corresponding tubular motor.
Parallel connection of mechanical tubular motors
A cut-off relay is required in order to connect mechanical tubular motors in parallel.

iEN
7.1 Safety instructions for electrical connection
Prior to connecting, check that the voltage / frequency on the type plate corresponds to the
local mains conditions.
There is a risk of fatal electric shock when touching
electrical components.
◆Carry out all installation and connection work only in an isolated, zero-volts state.
◆Disconnect all phases of the mains power supply cable and secure it to prevent any
reconnection.
◆Check the system for a zero-voltage status.
Incorrect wiring may lead to short-circuits and
destroy the device.
◆Follow the pin assignment detailed in the wiring diagram.
◆Follow all the electrical connection specifications in the operating instructions of your
tubular motor and that of the external controller (when using E1/E2).
Connection of a second phase to E1 or E2 will cause the
Troll Basic DuoFern to be damaged.
◆When inputs E1 / E2 are used, they must always be connected to the same phase.
◆If another phase is connected, the incorrect mains voltage (380 V / 50 Hz) will be
applied to the inputs and damage theTroll Basic DuoFern.

iEN
7.2 Connecting a tubular motor
Inputs E1 / E2 (230 V / 50 Hz) , only if required.
Connecting the white set cord (SET) from RADEMACHER tubular motors
* The white set cord (SET) from RADEMACHER tubular motors must be con-
nected to the neutral terminal [ N ] to ensure trouble-free operation of the
tubular motor.

8. Assembly
The Troll Basic DuoFern is designed for flush-mounted installation. For this, you require a
58mm flush-mounted box.We recommend using a deep box.
Installation procedure:
1. Switch off the mains.
2. Make the electrical connection according to the wiring diagram (see page 17).
3. Route the power cables to the flush-mounted box.
4. Slide the installation housing [ 3 ] into the flush-mounted box and clamp the claws [ 5 ] in
place with the screws provided.
5. Fit the frame [ 2 ].
6. Carefully insert the operating unit [ 1 ] into the installation housing [ 3 ].
7. Switch the mains power back on again.

9. Important information prior to initial commissioning
◆Prior to initial commissioning of theTroll Basic DuoFern, it must be ensured that the end
points are configured for the connected tubular motor.
◆Iftheendpointshavenotyetbeen configured, it isvitalthatbothendpointsareconfigured
for the tubular motor, as failure to do so can lead to malfunctions.
◆In order to do so, follow the information provided in the operating manual for the
respective tubular motor.
◆For electronic RADEMACHER tubular motors from year of manufacture 2000 onwards,
the end points can be configured with the help of theTroll Basic DuoFern, see page 35.
Example for manual control of a roller shutter
1. Open the roller shutters.
Brieflypressingthe button causestheroller shutters to move
to the upper end point.
2. / or causes the roller shutters to stop in the interim.
3. Close the roller shutters.
The roller shutters move to the configured ventilation
position or to the lower end point.
10. Manual operation
Manualoperationisalwayspossible and haspriorityovertheprogrammedautomaticfunctions.
Ventilation position, see page 33
If the ventilation position is configured, the roller shutters will first roll down to this position.
Pressing the [ Down ]key once more causes the roller shutters to continue downwards.

iEN
10.1 Manual operation (jog mode)
As soon as Venetian blinds mode is activated with the help of a DuoFern controller (e.g.
HomePilot®), it is possible to manually operate the Troll Basic DuoFern in jog mode.
Jog mode provides a convenient way to configure Venetian blinds. In doing so, the Venetian
blinds motor is powered only as long as the control key is actuated.
NOTE
Pressing the respective operating key [ Up / Down ] for an extended period causes the Troll
Basic DuoFern to automatically move theVenetian blinds to the corresponding end position.
Example for manual control of Venetian blinds in jog mode.
1.
Press briefly The Venetian blinds move upwards briefly.
or
1.1. Press
The Venetian blinds open.
TheVenetian blinds move up to the upper end point.
2. / or Causes theVenetian blinds to stop in the interim.
3.
Press briefly The Venetian blinds move downwards briefly.
or
3.1. Press
The Venetian blinds close.
The Venetian blinds move to the configured ventilation
position or to the lower end point.
Ventilation position, see page 33
If the ventilation position is configured, the roller shutters will first roll down to this position.
Pressing the [ Down ]key once more causes the roller shutters to continue downwards.
