WARNINGS FOR DAILY USE OF
6
THE AUTOMATION
6.1 - Maximum continuous work cycle
In general the tubular motors in the "Max" range, while
guaranteeing a maximum continuous use of 4 minutes,
are designed for residential applications and therefore
for discontinuous use. Therefore in the event of over-
heating (for example due to continuous and prolonged
activation ) a thermal cut-out trips automatically to shut
off power supply. Power is only restored when the tem-
perature returns to within the normal range.
What to do if ...
(troubleshooting guide)
❑ When an electric phase is powered, the motor
does not move:
Unless a thermal cut-out has tripped, in which case
it is sufficient to wait for the motor to cool, check
that the mains power voltage corresponds to the
data stated in the technical specifications in this
manual, measuring the energy between the "com-
mon" wire and that of the powered electric wire.
Then try and power the opposite electric phase. If
the motor still does not move, there is probably a
serious fault on the control unit of the electronic lim-
it switch or on the motor windings.
❑ When an up command is made, the motor does
not start:
If the awning is already closed or nearly closed, the
motor does not perform the up manoeuvre. In this
case move the awning down slightly and then
repeat the up command.
❑ The system operates in emergency hold-to-run
conditions
– Check whether the motor has been subject to a
severe electrical or mechanical shock.
– Check that all motors components are intact.
– Repeat the installation procedure.
