Safety instructions
AUTIONC
The WMS Hand-held transmitter plus is for
indoor use only. It is not water-proof. Do not
leave the WMS Hand-held transmitter plus
outdoors.
AUTIONC
Never activate buttons on your WMS Hand-
held transmitter plus arbitrarily without a line
of sight to the sun shading system. Chil-
dren must not play with this product – keep
remote controls and transmitters out of the
reach of children!
Follow the steps below in the order shown to ensure
problem-free operation:
 Please read these instructions carefully.
 Insert the batteries.
 Learn the WMS Hand-held transmitter plus into the
receivers.
 Check that the unit is functioning correctly.
Installation
As it is a hand-held transmitter, the WMS Hand-held trans-
mitter plus does not require installation.

General information
Fig. 1 WMS Hand-held transmitter plus
The WAREMA Mobile System (WMS) Hand-held trans-
mitter plus is used for the remote control of WAREMA
WMS receivers. The receiver sends a confirmation of the
received commands, and the WMS Hand-held transmitter
plus indicates that it received the confirmation.
The WMS Hand-held transmitter plus supports five differ-
ent product types (awning, roller shutter, external venetian
blind, window, light).
Only one receiver or one group with multiple receivers of
the same product type can be actuated at any one time
per channel (6 channels).
The comfort control functions can be switched on and off
by channel via the WMS Hand-held transmitter plus.
A WMS Hand-held transmitter, a WMS Central transmitter
or the WMS studio software is needed for commissioning
a weather station.
If a control function is preventing operation of the product
(e.g. a wind alarm), this is also displayed on the WMS
Hand-held transmitter plus.
Intended use
The WMS Hand-held transmitter plus was developed to
control WAREMA Mobile System (WMS) receivers. Any
use other than the purpose described in these instructions
requires approval from the manufacturer.

the receivers that were learned in for the currently
selected channel.
②Control function LED with two functions
When you press the control button , the LED
indicates whether the comfort control func-
tions are active or inactive.
If operation is blocked on your WMS Hand-held
transmitter plus, for example due to a wind
alarm, this LED flashes red. (The wind alarm
keeps your sun shading products safe. When
the set wind speed limit is exceeded, the blinds
are retracted and manual operation is blocked
during this time.)

OTICEN Should there be channels that are
not assigned, the display skips
over them to the next assigned
channel (e.g. from channel 1 to
channel3). If you have just as-
signed channel 2, press the
+
button for 5s. A brief press of the
button then selects the desired
channel (channel LED flashes).
In this mode, you can then assign the
previously empty channel by pressing the L
button within 8 s and launching the learning/
copying process. The mode is closed auto-
matically after 8 s (channel LED no longer
flashes and is only lit).
OTICEN The exception is factory mode:
here, the WMS Hand-held trans-
mitter plus remains in expanded
selection mode, even if the start
channel is selected again.

yet been copied onto the WMS Hand-held
transmitter plus.
Lights up GREEN for 2 s +
control function LED red:
The receiver confirms the command, but does
not execute it because of a superordinate con-
trol function (e.g. the awning is not extended
because the wind alarm is active).

OTICEN When you delete a receiver from the network,
it can no longer be operated via other transmit-
ters. It must be relearned into a network.
OTICEN It only makes sense to delete products via the
WMS Hand-held transmitter plus in smaller net-
works (two to three awnings or roller shutters).
In more complex networks and when routing
tables are used, a normal hand-held transmit-
ter or a central control unit should be used for
deletion.
Maintenance and cleaning
Replacing the batteries of the WMS Hand-held
transmitter plus
Replace the batteries if the transmission LED lights up or-
ange after the WMS Hand-held transmitter plus is activat-
ed. If the batteries are fully depleted, the WMS Hand-held
transmitter plus can no longer be activated.
 In order to replace the batteries (type AAA, IEC LR03,
"Micro"), open the battery compartment (Fig. 2) and in-
sert the new batteries. Ensure the correct polarity: The
plus (+) and minus (-) poles of the batteries must agree
with the marks in the battery compartment.
 Only use new batteries of the same type and always
replace both batteries. Use high-grade batteries – in-
expensive batteries may leak and damage the device.
If the device will not be used for an extended period,
please remove the batteries. Do not use rechargeable
batteries!
Cleaning
Clean the housing with a microfibre cloth or a soft damp
cloth. Do not use detergents, cleaning agents, solvents,
abrasive substances or steam cleaners!
Liability
Failure to comply with the product information in these
instructions and use of the unit in a manner other than its
intended use may result in a refusal by the manufacturer to
honour warranty claims for product damage. In this case,
liability for consequential damage to persons or property
will also be excluded. Observe the information in the op-
erating instructions for your sun shading system. Liability
is also excluded for damage to the sun shading system
resulting from operation while iced over.
Disposal
After use, the device and the batteries must be disposed
of according to legal regulations or brought to your local
recycling centre.
