Please read this installation guide carefully and in full in order to use the products functionalities
to their full extent. Somfy accepts no responsibility for any faults or damage resulting from failure
to adhere to the installation guide (use other than for the intended purpose, incorrect installation,
operating error etc.).
The J4 motor is designed for the electrical control of exterior Venetian blinds.
It is important to follow these instructions for the safety of all persons. Incorrect
assembly can lead to serious injury. These safety instructions must be retained.
The motor, torque and operating time must be adjusted according to the whole installation.
Only original Somfy accessories should be used (adaptors, brackets, same type of cable, etc.).
Fitting, testing, commissioning and repair of the installation must only be carried out by
qualified personnel.
Correct operation of the installation is only guaranteed if the installation and assembly
have been carried out according to best practices, if the power supply is adequate and if
maintenance is carried out.
The moving parts of the motors must be protected if operating below 2.50 m from ground level.
The installation must not be used if it shows any signs of damage (for example wear, damaged
cables/springs or misadjusted end limits).
The installation must be protected from all unauthorised use. Take preventive measures to
avoid any unwanted operation.
Children are not permitted to play with the wired controls. Keep the remote control out of the
reach of children.
Disconnect all connected cables from the power supply before working on the installation.
The permanently installed control points must be visible.
Do not use the installation if work (cleaning windows for example) is being carried out nearby.
Comply with the assembly and operating guides, in particular the safety instructions of the
manufacturer of the device to be used.
Subject to technical modifications.
SOMFY hereby declares that the device complies with the applicable directives.
A declaration of conformity is available at www.somfy.com/ce.
2. General
2.3.1. General information
The main function of the mushroom is to ensure the safety of the installer and the end user, by
protecting the motor and the product on which it is installed.
For J4 1TN and J4 2TN motors, the mushroom must be used as an upper end limit.
For J4 HTM and J4 WT motors, the mushroom can be used as an upper end limit if the installer
does not want to adjust this position.
Be sure that during the operation, no slat of the end product exerts radial effort on the mus-
hroom, or the guide tube (if used).

Disconnect all connected cables from the power supply before
working on the installation!
Take preventive measures to avoid any unwanted operation!
7KLV6RPI\SURGXFWPXVWEHLQVWDOOHGE\DWHFKQLFDOO\TXDOLILHGSHUVRQfor whom this guide is intended. The professionally qualified person must
comply with all the standards and legal provisions in force in the country of use.
The J4 power supply cable must never be powered while disconnected from the motor.
A J4 motor must never be supplied without its dedicated cable.
This motor must not be connected to an isolating transformer.
When you use a switch, a maximum of 3 motors, with a total cable length of 50 m, can be
connected in parallel.
The phases and neutrals must be connected together respectively.
Do not use more than one switch connected to each motor.
In case of drive by a controller or any automatisms, please refer to the dedicated instructions
manual.
The movement is correctly executed by the motor, only if it received a continuous order for at
least 200 ms.
For commands sent to the motor to be executed correctly, they must be at least 500 ms apart.

To change the lower end limit position on
the exterior Venetian blind, use the following
procedure:
If necessary, loosen the grub screws (7), then
disconnect the drive shafts from the motor shaft
adaptors (1).
Rotate the motor downwards until it stops in the
lower end limit position.
Position the exterior Venetian blind in the
required lower end limit (1TN)/lower end limit
