Roller Bar and Front Bar slots AT THE SAME TIME.
If replacing the Valance as well, remove the old
Valance from its slot in the Front Bar.
11. Remove the new Fabric from its packaging. Orient
it with the hems facing down.
Note: The Fabric must be inserted into the Roller
Bar and Front Bar Slots at the same me. You
might have to do so in small steps, alternang
from one bar to the other.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the Fabric, have
your helper direct the Fabric into the slots, while
you slowly pull the Fabric through the slots to
the other end.
12. With your helper, carefully insert the Fabric into
the slots on the Roller Bar and Front Bar. You
might have to hold the Front Bar steady while

Awning. Tighten the #2 Phillips screws, then the
6mm Roller Bracket Bolt.
14. Center the Valance in the Front Bar.
15. Center the Fabric to align with the Valance.
16. Trim the gray cords to t.
17. Reinstall the End Plate on the Front Bar with the
two (see Figure 5) Phillips screws (three screws
for the PRO model. Trim the gray cords to t.
Note: For PRO Front Bars, install the Allen Set
Screw in the Valance Slot.
18. While keeping the Fabric reasonably stretched
on the Roller Bar, use the Manual Crank Wand
to slowly roll the Fabric onto the Roller Bar, unl
both arms start to close.
Note: The Fabric should roll OVER THE TOP and
onto the Roller Bar.
CAUTION: It is important the Fabric be rolled up
ghtly on the Roller Bar before operang the
Motor. Failure to do so can cause the electronic
Motor to lose stop posion sengs, which will
require reseng the Motor stop posions.
19. Plug the power cord back into the outlet.
20. Test the Awning for proper operaon.
Note: If you need to reset the Motor stop
posion sengs, refer to the enclosed

APPENDIX A
Reseng Remote Communicaon and Reprogramming the Motor
This procedure will completely reset the communicaon between the Remote Transmier and Motor, as well
as erase and reprogram the Open and Closed stop posion sengs of the Motor.
This procedure programs the Awning Motor to accept commands from one primary Remote Transmier.
This procedure overwrites the factory set Open and Closed posions with new Open and Closed posions.
Note: To ONLY change the Open and Close preset posions, follow the procedure in Appendix A on Page 22.
Tools needed: A pen or similar poinng device is needed to press and hold the Programming Buon.
To ADD an addional Control Device (such as another Remote or Channel, or a Wirless Wall Switch);
• Press the Programming buon on the back of the Transmier that was supplied with the Awning unl
the motor “jogs.”
• On the addional Control Device, press the Programming buon unl the motor “jogs,” then release.
To DELETE a Control Device, repeat the two steps listed above and the addional Control Device is removed.
To Add or Delete a Control Device (Transmier)
WARNING: ALL STEPS MUST BE FOLLOWED EXACTLY AND COMPLETELY.
1. Set the Remote Transmier to Channel 1 (for single channel Remote, skip this step).
2. Press and Hold the my buon; the red LED light should blink for at least 5 seconds.
3. Disconnect Power for two (2) full seconds.
4. Connect Power for ten (10) full seconds.
5. Disconnect Power for two (2) full seconds.
6. Connect Power. The Awning should move, then stop on its own.
7. Press and hold the Programming buon for ten (10) seconds, watching for two (2)
separate jogs back and forth, several seconds apart.
Note: A single jog is dened as a quick two-direcon movement of the motor.
8. Press and Hold the CLOSE and OPEN buons together, release when the Awning jogs.
Note: The Awning now moves ONLY while holding down the CLOSE or OPEN buon.
9. Press the OPEN buon to check the direcon of the motor.
Note: The fabric must roll from the top of the Roller Bar, when opening the Awning.
10. If the direcon is incorrect, change direcon by holding the my buon unl the motor jogs.
Press the OPEN buon again to check for the correct direcon of the motor rotaon.
11. Move the Awning to the desired Closed posion. Note: Fabric must roll over top of Roller Bar.
12. Press and Hold the my and OPEN buons together; release when the Awning begins to Open.
13. Press the my buon to Stop the Awning at the desired Open seng.
14. Make desired adjustments to the Open posion. The Fabric will be ght and Arms slightly bent.
15. Press and Hold the my and CLOSE buons simultaneously; release them when the Awning
begins to Close. Let the Awning stop on its own at the Closed posion set in step 11.
16. Press and Hold the my buon; release when the Awning jogs. This step stores the new Open
and Close posions.
SET PROPER DIRECTION OF MOTOR ROTATION
SET THE CLOSED AND OPEN POSITIONS
PREPARE MOTOR - Read these instrucons FIRST, completely and thoroughly
17. Press and Hold the Programming buon; wait for a jog. This completes the procedure.
Note: The Awning now operates with a touch and release of the OPEN or CLOSE buon.
18. Test the Awning for correct one-touch operaon, using the OPEN and CLOSE buons.
FINALIZE PROGRAMMING OF MOTOR
Note: If steps 8 - 15 fail, unplug the Awning, plug it back in, then begin again from step 8.

Add a Wireless Wind Sensor
1. Remove the Wireless Wind Sensor Housing from
the Mounng Plate on the Awning. See Figure 1.
2. Remove the Sensor Body from the Sensor Housing
using a small at blade screwdriver. See Figure 2.
3. Press the Programming Buon on the back of the
Remote Transmier that operates the Awning
(See Figure 3) unl the Motor “jogs”. A “jog” is a
short back and forth movement of the motor.
4. Press the Programming Buon located inside the
Sensor (See Figure 3) unl the Motor “jogs,” then
release. The LED on the Sensor Body will blink.
If the LED does not blink, replace the two AAA
baeries, unplug the motor then plug it back in,
then restart this procedure at Step 3..
5. Replace the Wind Sensor on the Mounng Plate.
6. Test the Wireless Wind Sensor - Shake the
Awning Front Bar up and down (li the Front
Bar approximately one foot, then drop it) quickly
4 or more mes in a row (for approximately 12
seconds) to simulate the eect of strong wind; this
should cause the Awning to automacally close.
7. If the Awning does not close automacally:
• repeat Step 6 several more mes by strongly
shaking the Front Bar up and down quickly. To
shake the Front Bar, li the Bar unl strong
resistance is met, then allow the Bar to drop
freely. Repeat quickly.
• If the Awning sll does not close automacally,
repeat Steps 1 - 6 several more mes with a
NEW SET OF BATTERIES.
• If the problem connues, please call SunSeer
Customer Service at 800-670-7071.
Note: The Awning Motor will not accept a
command from the Remote Transmier for up
to 1 minute aer the Wireless Wind Sensor has
retracted the Awning three mes.
WARNING: YOU MUST BE CERTAIN THAT
THE WIRELESS WIND SENSOR IS INSTALLED,
PROGRAMMED AND OPERATING PROPERLY.
FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN THE WIRELESS
WIND SENSOR NOT BEING ABLE TO CLOSE YOUR
AWNING DURING WINDY CONDITIONS, WHICH
COULD CAUSE DAMAGE AND PERSONAL INJURY.
IF THE MOTOR DIRECTION IS REVERSED THE
SENSOR WILL EXTEND (OPEN) THE AWNING IN
WINDY CONDITIONS, INSTEAD OF CLOSING IT.
Add a Wireless Wall Switch
1. Press the Programming Buon (recessed inside the opening)
on the rear of the Remote Transmier (see Figure 1), that
controls your Awning unl it responds with a movement.
2. Briey press the Channel Select Buon for the channel
of the Mul-Channel Wall Switch that you want to use to
control your Awning (see Figure 2). The adjacent LED will
light up for 10 seconds. Using a paper clip or similar device,
press the Programming Buon located on the Wall Switch
unl the Motor responds with a movement.
3. Your Wall Switch is set to operate your SunSeer Awning.
Test the Awning now for proper operaon.
