Technical specifications
STAFER uses packaging recyclable materials. Dispose materials on the proper containers, complying with the law in force in your locality.
This product may have substances that are polluting for the environment and dangerous for the health.
At the end of the product life cycle, carefully comply with the waste disposal rules. It is strictly forbidden to dispose the product on the
domestic waste.
Environmental conservation!!
It is advisable to avoid using radio systems in areas with strong interference (for example, near police stations, airports, ports, hospital, etc.).
A technical inspection is in any case advisable before installing any radio system in order to identify sources of interference.
Radio systems can be used where possible disturbances or malfunctioning of the transmitter or the receiver do not cause a risk factor, or if the risk
factor is cancelled by suitable safety systems.
The presence of radio device operating on the same transmission frequency (433,42 MHz) can interfere with the radio receiver of the motor and
so reduce the range of the system and limit the functionality of the installation.

Notes:
ü(1) : press the buttons within 10 seconds from the last flash of LED 1. The buttons must be shortly pressed, around 1 second between two pressures.
Press the buttons the same number of time of the desired value: e.g. press 8 times P3 to set 8 Km/h; press 2 times P1 to set 20 Km/h; press 2
times P1 and 8 times P3 to set 28 Km/h.
üIf you try to set a wind threshold lower than 5 Km/h or higher than 35 Km/h, the device signals the error with the lighting of the 3 leds for 3 times.
If the wind speed is above the set threshold for at least 3 seconds, an upward movement is commanded to protect the awning (wind alarm). During this phase all
manual commands are disabled. The device exits from the “wind alarm” if the wind speed keeps below the set threshold for at least 8 minutes. The wind
threshold is varying from 5 km/h to 35 km/h. The factory sets the wind threshold at 15 Km/h.
IMPORTANT: you can not make these adjustments from a remote control!

The sensor commands a full opening / closing manoeuvre to the tuned receivers (radio devices or motors with integrated radio receiver). This function must be
activated on remote control (this is not the factory setting). If there are more remote controls, it must be activated on all controls.
IMPORTANT: you can not make sun adjustments from a remote control!
This is the factory setting.
An automatic downward manoeuvre is performed if the intensity of the sun is above the set threshold for at least 2.5 minutes.
An automatic upward manoeuvre is performed when the intensity of the sun returns to less then the set threshold for at least 18 minutes.
Once performed an automatic downward manoeuvre for the presence of sun, the subsequent automatic operation performed by the sensor will be an
upward manoeuvre for to the absence of sun and so on.
The user can operate the awning, but the manual control doesn't affects the operating logic of the sun sensor.
The sun threshold is variable from 1 to 45 Klux. The factory sets the threshold to 16 Klux.
06.1.1 VISUAL SIGNALS ASSOCIATED TO SUN SENSOR IN STANDARD MODE
LED Sun → OFF : sun is below the sun threshold
LED Sun→ GREEN : sun is above the sun threshold
LED Sun→ RED : the function is inactive or system in wind alarm (sun function temporarily deactivated)

üThe device is in “Wind alarm”.
üSun threshold is too high. Adjust the threshold.
üThe device could be installed in a position little exposed to the sun, or some object obstructs the proper detection of the sun.
üSun function is deactive.
üThe sun sensor may be damaged. Check functionality by checking that "sun LED" blinks quickly once you apply a light source at the oval on the
device.
üRadio connection could be disturbed. The Test Radio function is active. If the receiver doesn't receive any information from radio sensor over the
defined time, the receiver commands an upward movement to protect the awning.
üRadio sensor or receiver device doesn't work. The Radio Test function is active. If all receiver devices associated to the sensor are in this condition,
probably the sensor is failure. If only one receiver device is in this condition, probably this last one is failure.
üWind threshold is to high. Adjust the threshold.
üThe device could be installed in a position little exposed to the wind.
üThe wind sensor may be damaged. Check the functioning by turning the cups to simulate the presence of the wind and make sure that device enter in
"wind alarm”.
üInterferences on Radio connection. Verify that there are no interferences on same frequency.
08. FAQ
üVerify the power supply.
üOnce powered, the device lights LEDs briefly to indicate the proper power supply. If this doesn't happen, it is likely a fault and it may be necessary to replace
the device or there is an error in the electrical connection.
üEnsuring to have correctly operated the storage process of remote control of sensor controlling.
üThe procedure of memorization of remote control has been made too slowly. When device entries into “transmitter programming” mode, you have 15
sec to press the STOP button of the transmitter you want to store.
üYou have set up a threshold out of sensor limits.
