1. Brief introduction to the Telis 4 Soliris RTS
remote control
This guide describes the installation steps required to make the best use
of the Telis 4 Soliris RTS.
1.1 What is the Telis 4 Soliris RTS for?
The Telis 4 Soliris RTS is a wireless radio remote control compatible
only with products tted with Somfy Radio Technology (RTS): roller shut-
ter motors, awning motors, etc.
The Telis 4 Soliris RTS makes it possible to control several products indi-
vidually using a single remote control handset, by means of a 5-chan-
nel radio system, each channel being identied by the indicator lights.
Several products can also be controlled at once using the Telis 4 Soliris
RTS.
The Telis 4 Soliris RTS also enables products linked to its fth channel
to be set to Wind and Sun mode. In Wind and Sun mode, the relevant
products react automatically to variations in sunshine, provided they are
linked to a Sun sensor or a Wind and Sun sensor.

1.2 A few denitions
Installation:
All of the Radio Technology Somfy products a house is equipped with.
Favourite position:
The favourite position is your ideal position for your roller shutter or
awning in certain situations, for example, your awning partially extended
when you are dining beneath it in summer but don’t want to deprive your
houseplants of sunlight; shading your computer screen from glare by
partially closing your interior window blinds/curtains etc.

5. How does the Telis 4 Soliris RTS operate?
5.1 Channels and indicator lights
5.1.1 Description
The Telis 4 Soliris RTS allows independent or simultaneous control of
different products with a single remote control unit.
This functionality is possible thanks to a 5-channel system, identied
by indicator lights: each indicator light corresponds to an individual
channel.
Each channel is independent and controls a product or group of
products.
The amount of sun the house receives can also be adjusted using
Channel 5, by selecting the Sun function: if a Sun sensor or a Wind and
Sun sensor is linked to the products controlled by Channel 5, the sensor
will automatically control the lowering or raising of the products, depen-
ding on the intensity of the ambient light.
The Selection button (E) is used to navigate between the 5 channels and

5.2 Choice of products to be controlled
Caution: This section is illustrated with a specic example to explain the
operation of the Telis 4 Soliris RTS and its channels.
5.2.1 Context of use
To simplify the explanations, we will use a total of 4 products controlled by
the Telis 4 Soliris RTS in a typical house:
Living room roller shutter No.1 called Living Room Shutter 1,•
Living room roller shutter No.2 called Living Room Shutter 2,•
Terrace awning No. 1 called Terrace Awning 1,•
Terrace awning No. 2 called Terrace Awning 2,•
Each of these products is tted with an individual control point.
The purpose of installing the Telis 4 Soliris RTS is to be able to control
these 2 roller shutters and 2 awnings independently but also on certain
occasions, the 2 terrace awnings at the same time.
In order to control these 2 roller shutters and 2 awnings with the Telis 4
Soliris RTS, each roller shutter or awning must be allocated a channel
and then the 2 terrace awnings allocated to the fth channel.
5.1.4.2 Selecting the Wind function
To change from the Wind and Sun func-
tion to the Wind function:
Select channel 5.
-
Press the Selection button (E) again -
and keep it pressed:
The two Wind/Sun
► indicator lights
will go out and the two Wind indi-
cator lights will come on; the roller
shutter / awnings allocatted to chan-
nel 5 move briey.
Release the Selection button (E): the
-
Sun function is no longer active.
Caution: the products linked to channels
1, 2, 3 and 4 are still in Wind mode.
The Wind function can only be activa-
ted if a Wind sensor or a Wind and Sun
sensor is linked to the products.
The Sun function can only be activated if
a Sun sensor or a Wind and Sun sensor
is linked to the products.

The 2 awnings allocated to channel 5
may therefore be controlled at the same
time. They may also be allowed to react
to the sun conditions if the Sun func-
tion is active (if a Sun sensor or a Wind
and Sun sensor is allocated to these 2
awnings).
5.2.2 Allocating a channel to a roller
shutter/awning
Caution: This step is to choose which
channel to allocate to which product. It is
not to make the allocation itself.
-Choosing which channel to link to which
roller shutter or awning:
Channel 1: Living Room Shutter 1•
Channel 2: Living Room Shutter 2•
Channel 3: • Terrace Awning 1
Channel 4: • Terrace Awning 2
• Channel 5: the 2 awnings -
Terrace 1 and 2.

-
sticker.
-Apply the sticker to the back of the Telis
