1. Safety precautions
WARNING!
Important safety information.
Follow these instructions to ensure the
safety of persons. The instructions must
be stored.
– Contact a professional electrician to install
the motor, because the motor requires a
power supply of 230VAC, 50 Hz.
– Check the motor for signs of mechanical
damage after unpacking. If you notice
any shipping damage, do not start up the
motor and notify your supplier immedi-
ately.
– The motor should only be used for the
purpose specified by the manufacturer
(refer to the operating instructions). Any
changes or modifications thereof are not
permissible and will result in loss of all
warranty claims.
– Technical data can be found on the type
label of the tubular motor.
– If the motor cannot be operated without
presenting a hazard, it must be switched
off and prevented from being switched
on unintentionally.
– When performing work on the windows,
motor or connected shades, protect
them against unauthorised or uninten-
tional operation.

3. Scope of delivery
Motor 45 mm tube diameter with 2.5 m connection cable
Operating instructions
Adapter set, comprising tube adapter / adapter ring
Mounting-kit, comprising safety clip / safety cotter
ATTENTION!
Pay attention to the following European
guidelines:
– The cables must conform to the applica-
ble VDE standard.
– If installing motors with a PVC H05VV-F
cable, the cable on surface-mounted out-
door installations and recessed-mounted
installations must be protected by a cable
conduit or cable duct.
– When installing the motor an all-pole dis-
connection with a contact gap of at least
3 mm per pole must be provided.
– The up and down directions of the
switch resp. button must be electrically
or mechanically locked against each
other. The changeover time for changing
the running direction (up/ down) must be
least 0.5 sec.
Ä
ATTENTION!
– Follow the safety instructions according
to EN 60335-2-97.
– Additional components for the implemen-
tation of the installation, such as adap-
tors and brackets must be chosen among
those offered by the producer. These
products are listed in the catalogue sup-
plied on request.
– When mounting the drive always use the
safest and most suitable tubular motor
and mounting bracket.
– For automatically actuated awnings a
minimum gap of 0.4 m to other parts in
the area must be maintained when the
awning is fully extended. By using as
an awning system the extended awning
must mainain a minimum height of 1.8 m.
Ä
IMPORTANT!
Any screws used to fix the rolling shutters
tube / awnings must in no way touch the
motor. Please refer to fig. 4.1 to 4.5.
Ä
WARNING!
Risk of injury due to improper installation
and commissioning.
Improper installation and commissioning may
lead to personal injury or property damage.
Therefore:
– When connecting the device, observe the
currently valid VDE standards (in particu-
lar DIN VDE 0100/0700), your local pow-
er company’s regulations and the current
accident prevention regulations.
– Connect the motor in accordance with the
wiring diagram.
– It is important for the safety of professional
electricians to follow the user instructions.
Please keep instructions for reference.

ATTENTION!
SMI-Motors must be connected to certified SMI-Actuators.
Parallel connection of tubular motor with electronic limit posi-
tion are allowed. The maximum switching contact load of the
connected control device (switch, motor control, actuator, etc.)
must be observed.
The combination of different operating modes is not allowed. To
change the operating mode from communication mode to switch
mode, push sequential the UP- and DOWN-button.
Also in the switch mode, we recommend the wiring between the
motor and the switch with a 4-wire cable.

ATTENTION!
Parallel connection of tubular motor with electronic limit position are allowed.
The maximum switching contact load of the connected control device (switch,
motor control, timer etc.) must be observed.
It is not allowed to combine the operation modes. To change the opera-
tion mode from communication mode to switch mode, a one-time sequen-
tially up and down button-press is necessary.
Ä
Note on laying SMI wires in custom cables!
The I+ and I- SMI wires can be laid in the motor connection line of the SMI
drive (as above) or in their own cable. It is not permitted to lay SMI wires
together with wires carrying other signals in one cable.
If SMI drives wired in parallel are supplied with electrical power from dif-
ferent phases, the SMI I+ and I- wires must be laid in a separate cable.
Ä
6. Standard Motor Interface
What is SMI?
SMI is the abbreviation for Standard Motor Interface. SMI has been de-
veloped to connect intelligent motors for roller shutters and sun protection
devices. SMI allows the transmission of messages from the control system
to the motor and vice versa. SMI allows products from different manufac-
turers to be combined. The SMI interface simplifies the use of highquality
solutions and increases the compatibility between standard motors and
controls from different manufacturers. Applications for sunscreens require
the greatest robustness and economy. SMI was developed to meet these
requirements.

Electronic limit position setting with Installation tool
How to connect to an Installation tool (VL-Progset-ME/SMI-230/Art.-no.: 54185775).
IMPORTANT!
– Switch off the power supply. Connect the wire of the motor to the terminal
clamps of the installation tool.
– It is important that the motor-wire-colors correspond with the installa-
tion-tool-wire-colors, otherwise the motor turning direction could be set
incorrect. Switch on the power supply.
– The installation tool is not suitable for continuous operation and has only
been used for set the limit position.
Ä
The connection cable should be installed in an conduit to the junction box,
in compliance with the local building and electrical regulations. Avoid any
contact between moving objects and connection cables by routing the
cables according to figure 1.
Move the sunshade or screen completely down before disconnecting the
tube connectors.
Dissasembly of tubular shaft.
Place the mounting bracket to the desired position. Assembly of the motor
can be performed on both sides.
Slide the Adapter ring (A) on the adjustment ring (B). Be aware of the cor-
rect installation of the notch with the Adapter (D), (figure 2).
Place the tube adapter (E) on to the motor axle (F) and secure it with the
safety clip (G) that comes within the mounting-kit.
Be careful when sliding the tubular motor completely into the tubular shaft,
until the adapter ring is covered into the tubular shaft, (figure 3). Under no
circumstances external force should be applied to the motor in any way.
Place the motor head and tubular shaft into the mounting bracket and
check for proper fit. Secure the square pin of the motor head with the safe-
ty cotter that comes with the mounting-kit. Make sure to install the motor
in a position that the adjustment screws are accessible from the outside.

8. Troubleshooting
Problem Possible cause Solution
Motor is not responding. 1. No mains voltage. 1. Check mains voltage.
2. Connection error. 2. Check connections (see wiring diagram).
3. Cutoff by internal temperature fuse. 3. Allow the motor to cool down for 20 min.
Motor starts slowly or makes too
much noise.
1. Connection error. 1. Check connections.
2. Installation error or undersized motor selected. 2. Check installation and motor load.
Motor rotation direction is wrong. Motor connection cables are reversed. Disconnect the supply line from the power, and swap
the black and brown conductors of the motor cable at
the controller.
Motor stops while moving up or
downwards.
1. Preset endpoint reached. 1. Set the end limits again, according to the instructions.
2. Cutoff by internal temperature fuse. 2. Allow the motor to cool down for 20 min.
Motor stops while moving upwards. Iced roller shutter or obstacle in running rail. Remove icing or obstacle. Release the roller shutter by
steering the motor in downward direction.
The motor is maintenance-free.
