Specic safety instructions
Cables which pass through a metal wall must be protected and isolated using a sheath
or sleeve.
Attach cables to prevent any contact with moving parts.
If the drive is used outdoors, and if the power supply cable is a type H05-VVF cable,
the cable should be installed in a UV-resistant duct, e.g. under a gland.
Leave the drive power supply cable accessible: it must be possible to replace it easily.
Always make a loop in the power supply cable to prevent water entering the drive.
For tubular motors 50/60 mm in diameter:
The drive wheel must be locked in place to prevent it moving along the roller tube:
- Either by securing the roller tube onto the drive wheel using 4 screws or 4 pop rivets
positioned between 5 mm and 15 mm from the outer edge of the drive wheel, suitable
for all types of roller tube. The screws or pop rivets must only be attached to the drive
wheel and not to the drive.
- Or by using a drive wheel stop, suitable for tubes which are not smooth.
Somfy SAS, F-74300 CLUSES as manufacturer hereby declares that the drive covered by these
instructions when marked for input voltage 230V~50Hz and used as intended according to these

• The FTS is a complete system comprising 2 actuators and a control box.
• This system is used for unwinding or winding fabric between 2 tubes, while
controlling the tension.
• The fabric is unwound via a strap-drawn load bar to which the fabric is attached.
• One of the actuators is housed in the tube on which the fabric winds and unwinds. The other is
housed in the opposite tube on which the straps wind and unwind, by means of the guidance
pulleys.
• The operation of the 2 actuators is coordinated via a special control box, which also ensures:
• Dynamic fabric tension as it winds /unwinds.
• An end final tension.

- It is important to use the right actuator wire colours for connecting
to the FTS box.
- Remember to connect the earth wires.
- The cross-section of the wires depends on the number of actuators,
their power and the distance between the actuators and the control box.
If using the safety for skylights, take out the electric bridge from between terminals 13 and 16, replacing it with the wires of the corresponding sensor (normally closed contact).
The wiring has
to be made in
compliance
with the
current norms

- It is important to use the right actuator wire colours for connecting
to the FTS box.
- Remember to connect the earth wires.
- The cross-section of the wires depends on the number of actuators,
their power and the distance between the actuators and the control box.
The dynamic tension prevents the fabric and straps from unwinding
too quickly due to the weight of the load bar. In a conventional set-up
(horizontal or very slightly sloping system), it is identical in both operating
directions (symmetrical tension), which corresponds to the factory
conguration of the dip switches (12):
In certain cases, such as a steep inclination, it is possible to alter the position
of the dip switches (12), to obtain a low or dissymmetrical dynamic tension.
These set-ups should be validated with Somfy's technical service.
The end tension is set automatically by the control box, after every end limit stop
or after a STOP request.
The end tension needs to be adjusted on the potentiometer (14), graduated from
0 to 9.
Push button (11) simultaneously activates the supply to the brakes on
both actuators.
This operation eases the system tension, for example in order to
adjust its parallel alignment.
N.B.: holding push button (11) down too long (>1 minute) could
damage the actuator brakes.
The dynamic tension needs to be adjusted using the potentiometer (13), graduated
from 0 to 9.
• Request fabric feed-out: during unwinding, the fabric actuator brakes the fabric
very gently. If the fabric unwinds too quickly, it will sag:
Using a flat-blade screwdriver, gradually increase the potentiometer value (13) to
limit the sag of the fabric.
• Request fabric feed-out, followed by a "stop" order: the system will stop, and
then tension the fabric slightly. Perform various tests, gradually increasing the
potentiometer value (14), until you obtain a correct tension.
N.B.: too high an end tension may weaken the structure!
• Request fabric retraction: if the straps unwind too quickly (sag) or too slowly (high tension),
readjust the potentiometer value (13).

20. Repairs
• The FTS is not working:
• Check the power supply (circuit breaker + control box fuse)
• Check for the electric bridge between terminals 13
and 16 of the control box, or make sure that the safety
contact is properly closed.
• Press the end limit setting push buttons on both
actuators, to put them into setting position (push
buttons engaged), if they are at the end limit in both
directions.
• The FTS stops during a manoeuvre and will not work:
• If the thermal safety on one of the actuators has been
triggered, you need to wait around 1/2 hour before
operating the FTS again.
• If the problem persists, disconnect the actuators from
the control box to test them with the setting tool.
• Check the power supply (circuit breaker + control box
fuse).
• if the LED turned on or blink, you need to wait the
FTS Box temperature decrease
• The system only starts after 2 or 3 presses on the control
system:
• This problem is due to mechanical clearance on a
load-bearing component; indeed the time between
the request being made on the control system and
the actuator being released from its end limit must not
exceed 1.1 second.
• The fabric winds onto the tube in a spiral:
• Make sure that the edges of the fabric are
perpendicular to the roller tube and the load bar.
• Make sure that the straps are perpendicular to the
roller tube and the load bar.
• The fabric unwinds jerkily and the actuators seem to be
abnormally forced (noisy):
• Reduce the dynamic tension on the potentiometer
(13).
• Make sure that the guidance system is not generating
excessive stress.
• Whenever it is stopped, the system seems to strain the
structure abnormally:
• Reduce the end tension on the potentiometer (14).
• Make sure that the actuators used are those
recommended on our charts.
• For any questions/problems, please contact Somfy.

• Le système FTS est un système complet composé de 2 actionneurs et d’un coffret de
commande.
• Ce système permet d'enrouler et de dérouler une toile entre 2 tubes et d’en assurer la
tension.
• Le déroulement de la toile est réalisé grâce à un tirage par sangles de la barre de charge sur laquelle la
toile est fixée.
• L’un des actionneurs est logé dans le tube sur lequel la toile s’enroule et se déroule. L’autre est logé dans
le tube opposé sur lequel viennent s’enrouler et se dérouler les sangles, à l’aide de poulies de guidage.
• Le fonctionnement des 2 actionneurs est coordonné par un coffret de commande spécifique qui assure
également :
• Une tension dynamique de la toile durant le déroulement/enroulement de celle-ci.
• Une tension finale.
