OREA RTS MOTOR

Programming and Limit Setting Instructions

Description

The Orea RTS is designed exclusively for cassette folding arm awnings It features an integrated radio receiver with remote limit setting and remote user programmable intermediate stop. The Orea RTS radio receiver (433.42 MHz) must be programmed with the Inteo family of transmitters. The Orea RTS motors are compatible with SOLIRIS and EOLIS RTS Sensors.
Important Installation Tips
A. For initial programming provide power only to the motor being programmed. B. All motor feedback (previously audible "beeping") is now replaced by a visual jog. A jog is a short Up & Down movement of the motor (0.5 second turn of the motor in each direction). C. The OREA RTS motor in Factory Mode will not respond to any transmitter until a transmitter is assigned to communicate with the motor's receiver. To assign a transmitter press its Up & Down buttons simultaneously until the motor jogs. D. Before pressing the programming button on the transmitter, verify the motor directions (if DOWN on the transmitter corresponds to DOWN on the end-product) and set (program) the end limits of the motor. Refer to section 4.3 of this instruction. E. The motor is packaged in "FACTORY MODE", and will remain in this mode until the limits are set and the programming button on the transmitter is pressed, thus putting it into "USER MODE". ROTATION DIRECTION CAN ONLY BE MODIFIED IN "FACTORY MODE". F. A double power cut cannot be achieved if the motor is still in FACTORY or INSTALLER mode. First program a transmitter into the memory of the motor. G.WARNING: For the EOLIS/SOLIRIS RTS SENSOR to function properly, the transmitter which is memorized into the motor's receiver must be configured
correctly. The DOWN button MUST correspond to DOWN on the end-product. In the case of a cassette awning, it will open or extend the awning. If the UP button extends the awning, the wind sensor will also extend the awning during windy conditions. THIS IS DANGEROUS! Damage and injury could occur. Do not proceed until proper operation of the transmitter is verified. H. The OREA RTS motor must be installed in the tube required for the particular application because the electronic speed variance detection will not allow the motor to turn if the crown does not rotate.

MOTOR WIRING COLOR CODE

A. All wiring must conform to NEC (National Electrical Code) and local codes.
B. The OREA RTS motors can be wired in PARALLEL. A means of disconnecting the power at each motor independently should be provided. C. Power only needs to be supplied to the motor. The receiver is completely enclosed inside the motor tube. D. The external antenna will be phased out and become internal to the motor. E. SOMFY Reserves the right to void the motor warranty if wiring recommendations are not followed.

3Installation Requirements
If the installation is made up of several RTS motors, only one RTS motor must be powered during programming. All other motors must be disconnected. This will avoid interferences during the initial programming of each motor. The mounting distance between 2 motor heads should not be less than 19 inches between RTS motor heads, to avoid possible interference. Use only SOMFY RTS radio controls. In order to avoid water penetration, form a "drip loop" with the power cable and use hood when required. Use SOMFY accessories (adaptors, brackets, plug ends,.), rated for the motor torque and total weight of the installation.

The motor cable should not act as a direct conduit for the water to enter the head of the motor (form drip loops).
NOTE: SOMFY motors conform to IP44 requirements and as such must be protected against direct weather elements such as rain, sleet,.etc.

4Factory Mode

This mode allows for rotation direction modification and setting of the end limits
CONTROLLING THE OREA RTS MOTOR WHEN SWITCHING POWER ON FOR FIRST TIME
1) The OREA RTS motor must be installed in the tube required for the particular application because the electronic speed variance detection will not allow the motor to turn if the crown does not rotate. Provide power to the motor. Notice the motor will not respond to any transmitter until a transmitter is assigned to communicate with the motors receiver. 2) To assign the transmitter to communicate with the motor's receiver, push the UP and DOWN buttons on the transmitter SIMULTANEOUSLY. The OREA RTS motor records the address of this transmitter, and only this activated transmitter can be recorded into the memory of the OREA motor. This prevents other transmitters from being recorded during factory assembly environments.
Release the buttons after the end-product jogs briefly UP/DOWN indicating that this transmitter can operate the motor during programming. The OREA RTS motor will now operate in a momentary fashion
* In case of problems with FACTORY MODE, turn the power off to the motor for 2 sec. and then back on in order to reset it. (EXAMPLE: If the OREA motor is powered and a different transmitter activates the motor which is not the intended transmitter to be used for limit setting, then perform a single power cut. This will delete the address currently in memory and allow your transmitter to be activated. 3) Check direction of operation. The DOWN button must correspond to DOWN on the end-product. In the case of an awning, it will open or extend the awning. If the direction is wrong, change the direction as shown.

UP STOP DOWN

Release the STOP button when the end-product jogs briefly UP/DOWN indicating that the change has been memorized in the motor. Verify if the change took place before proceeding. Press the stop button for more than 5 seconds
WARNING: For the EOLIS/SOLIRIS RTS SENSOR to function properly, the transmitter which is memorized into the motor's receiver, must be configured correctly. The DOWN button MUST correspond to DOWN on the end-product. In the case of a cassette awning, it will open or extend the awning. If the UP button extends the awning, the wind sensor will also extend the awning during windy conditions. THIS IS DANGEROUS! Damage and injury could occur. Do not proceed until proper operation of the transmitter is verified.
4) Adjust the end product to the up position, approximately 4 inches before the cassette awning is completely closed. This distance is required for the motor to activate the low torque mode prior to closing and to establish a reference starting point. Read the complete limit setting procedure before proceeding with setting the UP and DOWN limits. 5) Setting of the END LIMITS

Always start at the upper reference point
> 2 seconds To set the DOWN limit, press the STOP and DOWN buttons for more than 2 seconds. Release the buttons once the end-product begins to move, and be prepared to stop it at its DOWN limit. The end-product moves towards the DOWN limit.
If necessary, adjust the correct down position using the UP and DOWN buttons. Remember the motor responds to the transmitter in a momentary fashion.
Stop the motor at the desired DOWN limit
> 2 seconds IMPORTANT! Record the UP and DOWN positions by pressing the STOP button for more than 2 seconds. The setting of the end limits is now completed.
> 2 seconds To set the UP limit, press the STOP and UP buttons for more than 2 seconds. Release the buttons once the product begins to move. The awning goes up and reaches the completely closed position of the box.
The application jogs briefly UP/DOWN indicating that the UP and DOWN position have been memorized in the motor. The motor is now in INSTALLER MODE and operates in a momentary fashion.
HELPFUL HINTS: 1. Once the end limits are confirmed during FACTORY MODE, it is possible to delete the limits and start over at the beginning. - Just press UP & DOWN simultaneously for 2 sec. until the motor jogs. This deletes the limits and starts you at the beginning of Factory Mode. 2. If the OREA motor is still powered after confirming the limits, only this activated transmitter/channel can be recorded by pressing the programming button (this prevents other transmitters from being recorded during factory environments). 3. The only way to record a different transmitter/channel is to perform a single power cut in INSTALLER MODE (which is right after both limits have been confirmed). Then press any transmitter button (UP, STOP or DOWN) independently to activate this transmitter's address into the memory of the motor. The first transmitter you activate will only respond, unless you perform another single power cut. Then press the programming button to record this new transmitter/channel.

5Installer Mode

This mode allows for readjusting of the DOWN limit only and final programming
IMPORTANT If the installation is made up of several OREA RTS motors, only one OREA RTS motor must be powered during programming. This will avoid interference with the first programming of each OREA RTS motor. If several motors are connected on the same power supply please refer to the Warning note in Section 6.5 "Resetting motors back to USER MODE". *If the INSTALLER MODE directly follows FACTORY MODE, with no power interruption to the motor, go directly to Section 5.2
1) Provide power to the OREA RTS motor. Press UP STOP or DOWN independently on any transmitter in order to take , control of the motor (Do not press UP and DOWN simultaneously because this will delete the limits). Check that the OREA RTS motor is in INSTALLER MODE. In this mode the OREA RTS motor runs when a directional button on the transmitter is pressed and held (momentary fashion), and the OREA RTS will stop at its preset end limits. NOTE: If you do Press the UP & DOWN transmitter buttons simultaneously after a single power cut, then you will lose the confirmed limits and enter FACTORY MODE with this new transmitter/channel already activated. 2) Recording the first Transmitter or Channel. On 4 channel transmitters select the desired channel before pressing the programming button.
Release it when the end-product jogs briefly UP/DOWN indicating that the transmitter has been memorized into the motor Press the programming button on the RTS transmitter
3) Readjusting of the DOWN limit after the transmitter has been programmed. a) Modify the DOWN or awning extended limit first. Using the transmitter bring the product to the DOWN limit. The motor must reach the DOWN limit and stop on its own. b) Follow the steps below. 5 Seconds
Press for more than 5 Seconds on the UP button and the DOWN button simultaneously
Release the buttons after the end-product jogs briefly UP/DOWN indicating that the motor is in the "END LIMIT SETTING STATE".

c) Adjust the DOWN limit to the new position (the motor will respond to the transmitter in a momentary fashion). d) Record the new DOWN limit. >2 Seconds
Release after the awning jogs briefly UP/DOWN indicating that the change has been memorized in the motor.
Press the STOP button for more than 2 seconds
e) The new DOWN or extended limit has been recorded.

6User Mode

This mode is for operating the motor by the end user
One Intermediate Position (IP) can be programmed into the OREA RTS. No reference point is necessary due to the electronic limit switch. The IP can be reached from any point between the end limits. 1) Intermediate position (IP) RECORDING THE INTERMEDIATE POSITION
Adjust the intermediate position by using the UP DOWN, and STOP , button on your control. The OREA motor must be in stop position before programming.

>5 Seconds

Press the STOP button for more than 5 seconds
Release it after the end-product jogs briefly UP/DOWN indicating that the intermediate position has been memorized in the motor
USING THE INTERMEDIATE POSITION
Manually: Press the intermediate button (STOP button) when the motor is not in motion Automatically: When the SOLIRIS RTS sensor reaches the set DAYLIGHT THRESHOLD, it gives a DOWN command. The end-product will move to the intermediate position only if the intermediate position has been programmed. Otherwise it will move to the DOWN limit.
TO DELETE THE INTERMEDIATE POSITION
Reach the intermediate position. Then press on the STOP button and hold it (approx. 5 sec.) until the end-product jogs briefly. The IP has been deleted.
2) Add or Delete a transmitter/channel in the memory of OREA RTS motor. The procedure is the same for adding or deleting a transmitter/channel. If the transmitter/channel has not been previously memorized it will be added instead of deleted. >2 Seconds
First activate the OREA RTS memory by pressing the programming button for more than 2 sec. of the transmitter/channel previously recorded in the motor's memory. Release it after the end-product jogs briefly UP/DOWN indicating that the OREA RTS motor is in a PROGRAMMING STATE
