General information
Fig. 1 EWFS Wall-mounted transmitter plus
The EWFS Wall-mounted transmitter plus allows wireless
operation of an EWFS-compatible receiver.
Intended use
The EWFS Wall-mounted transmitter plus is an electronic
device for controlling WAREMA EWFS Receivers. Manufac-
turer approval must be obtained for any form of use other
than the purpose indicated in these instructions.
Safety instructions
AUTIONC
The EWFS Wall-mounted transmitter plus is
for indoor use only. It is not water-proof. Do
not leave the EWFS Wall-mounted transmitter
plus outdoors.
AUTIONC
Never operate the buttons on your wall-
mounted transmitter indiscriminately if you
do not have a clear line of sight to the sun
shading system. Children must not play with
this product – Keep remote controls and
transmitters out of reach of children!
Follow the steps below in the order shown to ensure prob-
lem-free operation:
 Read these instructions carefully
 Learn the wall-mounted transmitter into the receivers
 Check that the system is functioning correctly
 Do not install the device until you have completed
these steps
Commissioning
You can find instruction videos on our
YouTube channel at:
http://www.youtube.com/user/SonnenLichtManager/videos
A battery has already been placed in the battery compart-
ment at the factory. Your device comes ready for operation.
Installation
Do not install the device until you have first performed
the learning-in procedure and carefully checked all of the
functions. Due to both legal regulations for radio systems
and structural factors, the operating range of radio remote
controls is limited. Therefore, adequate radio reception
must be kept in mind during planning. This is especially
important where the radio signal must pass through walls
and ceilings. The device should not be installed in the
immediate vicinity of metallic surfaces (steel beams, fire
door). Strong local transmitter systems (e.g. baby monitors
or neighbouring transmitters) may interfere with reception.
 Therefore, check to ensure that the control unit func-
tions properly before the final installation:
 Temporarily hold the wall-mounted transmitter in the
desired mounting position and check whether the
desired move commands can be performed without
any problems. If this is not the case, select a different
installation location and test the commands again.
 If the device still cannot be operated without any prob-
lems, switch off any potential sources of interference,
such as a baby monitor.
Once the system functions flawlessly, you can install the
mounting plate:
The EWFS Wall-mounted transmitter plus consists of a
mounting frame and an operating element (wall-mounted
transmitter).
 Attach the mounting frame to the wall using the coun-
tersunk screws and dowels included.
 Position the central frame/plate of the switch program
you require.
 Clip on the wall-mounted transmitter.
Clipping the wall-mounted transmitter and central
frame/plate into the available snap-in latches will hold
them in place on the mounting frame.
Only use countersunk head screws so that the
screws are flush with the mounting frame and the
EWFS Wall-mounted transmitter plus can be secu-
rely clipped on.
When planning the installation location, be sure
to allow enough space for the central frame/plate
that you require for your particular installation.
The central frame/plate can be ordered as an op-
tional accessory if needed.

Operation
A receiver and connected sun shading system
cannot be operated until a transmitter has been
learned in successfully.
Operating the EWFS Wall-mounted transmitter plus:
 After the "Up" or "Down" button has been pressed, the
transmission LED lights up briefly and the sun shad-
ing system moves in the corresponding direction. The
system can be stopped by pressing either the other
directional button or the stop button.
Channel change:
 Press the channel change button
+
(Fig. 4 on page
2) repeatedly until the desired channel is selected.
This is indicated by the channel LEDs lighting up. Then
press the "Up" or "Down" button in order to operate
the sun shading system or press one of the function
buttons in order to trigger the desired function. When
the button is pressed, the LED of the set channel and
the transmission LED lights up.
Switching sun control on or off permanently
The sun control automatic mode can be switched on or off
permanently using the small sliding switch
(see Fig. 3, no. 3).
 Use a pointed object (paperclip, ballpoint pen) to slide
the small switch to the "OFF" position (see figure 3).
 Press and hold the "S" button. The LED on the front
briefly lights up red, and the move command is sent.
Release the button again when the sun shading sys-
tem waves.
Sun control is now permanently switched off.
Symbols used
When the receiver is delivered, it does not "know" any
transmitters initially and therefore must first learn which
transmitters it should respond to. We refer to this process
as "learning-in".
Explanation of symbols:
Power-up: In order to learn in a transmitter, you
must de-energise a receiver or a group of receiv-
ers, either at the upstream in-line circuit breaker
or at the corresponding plug-in connector, and
then energise it again after approx. 5 seconds.
(Power-up procedure.) Always perform a power-up
procedure when you see the in-line circuit breaker
symbol.
Here, the receiver is in the learn mode for approx.
one minute. The learn button on the transmitter
must be pressed during this time interval or the
receiver will exit the learn mode. Press the learn
button on your transmitter whenever you see the
learn button symbol.
Wave: After you press the learn button on the
transmitter, the connected sun shading system
carries out several movements in a waving motion.
In these instructions, we use the adjacent symbol
to denote waving. Single wave: Press the learn
button on the transmitter, wait until the connected
sun shading system moves, and then release the
button immediately.
Learning in a master channel
In this section, a channel will be learned into a receiver
(shown using the example of an EWFS Plug receiver).
When you perform a power-up procedure on the receiver,
the receiver learns in the first channel it receives as the
master channel:
= Master channel
?
Fig. 5 The receiver does not "know" any channels yet (left).
A new channel is learned in and becomes the master
channel (right).
 Perform the steps below in the order shown:
Put receiver in learn
mode: Perform the pow-
er-up procedure on the
receiver.
Learn in master channel:
On the wall-mounted
transmitter, press and
hold the learn button.
When the sun shading
system waves once, re-
lease the button.
Receiver automatically
exits learn mode. The
wall-mounted transmitter
is now the master channel
on the receiver.
Result: The receiver now knows a master channel.
All channels learned into the receiver after the
first channel are learned as auxiliary channels. If
the receiver already knows a master channel, the
power must not be cut off to enter the learn mode
again for the auxiliary channels, since this master
channel must be used to start the learn mode.

Learning in an auxiliary channel
Now an auxiliary channel will also be learned into the
receiver. Auxiliary channels can be used for the following
purposes:
To allow multiple people to operate the sun shading
system with their own wall-mounted or hand-held trans-
mitters.
To enable operation of the sun shading system using
different transmitters, e.g. manual operation with a
wall-mounted or hand-held transmitter, automatic con-
trol mode with a time switch.
An important feature of auxiliary channels is that they
can be used to build groups.

= Master channel = Auxiliary channel
Fig. 6 Operating a receiver with a master channel (I) and
auxiliary channel (II). To enter the learn mode, use the
wall-mounted or hand-held transmitter on the master
channel.
 Perform the steps below in the order shown:
Put receiver in learn
mode: On the wall-mount-
ed or hand-held transmit-
ter that was just used to
learn in the master chan-
nel (I), press and hold the
learn button. When the
sun shading system
waves once, release the
button.
Learn in wall-mounted
transmitter (II) as an aux-
iliary channel: Using the
wall-mounted transmitter
(II), press and hold the
learn button. When the
sun shading system
waves once, release the
button.
Exit learn mode: Using the
wall-mounted or hand-held
transmitter on the master
channel (I), press the UP
or DOWN button. When
the sun shading system
moves, the learn mode is
no longer active.
Result: The sun shading system can now be operated
using both wall-mounted transmitters (or one
wall-mounted and one hand-held transmitter.
The wall-mounted transmitter (II) is the auxiliary
channel.

Only the receiver is capable of learning, not the
transmitter. Learning in auxiliary channels is the
first step to building groups. When you wish to
learn in an auxiliary channel, do not perform the
power-up procedure, as you will need to start the
learn mode using the master channel.
An auxiliary channel can be a 1-channel transmitter,
one channel of an 8-channel transmitter, a channel
of the EWFS Timer or a weather station.
IMPORTANT! A receiver can manage one master
channel and up to 15 additional auxiliary channels,
for a total of 16 different channels. Any attempt to
learn in a greater number of channels will fail.
For learning transmitters into other products,
as well as additional information on the topic of
learning-in, please refer to the operating and ins-
tallation instructions for the receivers.
