Sunis indoor WireFree™ RTS
EN
1. Introduction
The Sunis Indoor WireFree RTS is a wireless solar sensor that
transmits radio signals using Radio Technology Somfy (RTS).
Depending on the detected level of sunlight intensity, the sensor
sends a raise or lower order to the motors or RTS receivers.
This permits automatic control of the sun protection end-products that
protect your interiors (e.g. your furniture, plants, etc.) and to assist
you in saving energy (in summer only).
2. Safety
2.1. Safety and liability
Before installing and using this product, please read this guide
carefully.
This Somfy product must be installed by a professional motorisation
and home automation installer, for whom this guide is intended.
Moreover, the installer must comply with the current standards and
legislation in the country in which the product is being installed, and
inform the customer of the operating and maintenance conditions for
the product.
