Programming the days of the week
In automatic mode, the Telis 1 Chronis RTS sends automatic commands to one or more window coverings for
each day of the week.
These automatic commands include:
• The same settings for every day of the week (factory setting).

operating times each day. The two weekend or rest days operate on the same schedule, which diers
from the workday schedule.
The preset mode can be deactivated at any time by pressing and holding the selection button (F).
Saved settings will remain.
Modify presets:
• To set the current time for window covering operation, see section “Quick setting of an
automatic command”.
• To set a specific time for window covering operation, see
section “Editing an automatic order”.
Quick setting of an automatic command
1. Using the selection button (F), switch to automatic mode.
2. Press the arrow keys (G) to navigate to the open or close setting
you wish to edit (settings for all days or for groups of days if work
or weekend days have been configured).
3. Press and hold the Up and Down buttons (H/J) for more than
10 seconds the open or close function to modify a command. “SET”
is displayed on the screen, and the order flashes 3 times. Release the
button when “SET” disappears from the screen. The desired open or
close operation will occur at that time automatically.

Troubleshooting
Observation
The window covering does
not react at all when a button
on the Telis 1 Chronis RTS
is pressed.
A window covering stops

dierent time than the
programmed time.
One or more window coverings
systematically does not respond
to a programmed automatic
command.
Possible Causes
The batteries are low.
The remote control
transmitter is not
programmed.
External radio equipment
is interfering with the
radio reception.
The motor(s) or receiver(s)
are in thermal shut-o
mode.
The window covering has
encountered an obstacle.
Another control device is
sending a command to
the motor or receiver
The "Simulated presence"
function is activated.
A signal from another
automatic device in your
home is causing interference.
Solution
Replace the batteries.
See section "Adding/ deleting
a Telis 1 Chronis RTS".
Turn o any nearby radio
appliances.
Wait for the motor to cool
down, then press the desired
button again.
Remove the obstacle
and try again.
Wait until activation of the
window covering has finished,
then try again.
