Short Description
The device enables remote control of motorized blinds, roller shutters, venetian blinds, awnings, and similar systems. It also measures the power consumption of the connected load.
✅ Recommendation: Use only motors equipped with electronic or mechanical limit switches. Ensure limit switches are correctly set before connecting the device.
Manual Operation for Shutter
With Momentary Switch (Parameter No. 71 = 0, Parameter No. 1 = 0)
| Action on Push-Button | Blind Not Moving | Blind Moving Up | Blind Moving Down | Slats Tilting (Venetian) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Short press (< 0.5s) UP | Starts moving up | Stops movement | Stops movement | No action |
| Short press (< 0.5s) DOWN | Starts moving down | Stops movement | Stops movement | No action |
| Long press (> 0.5s) UP | Starts moving up; tilts slats if venetian | Moving | Moving | Tilts slats → moves up |
| Long press (> 0.5s) DOWN | Starts moving down; tilts slats if venetian | Moving | Moving | Tilts slats → moves down |
| Release after long press | No action | Stops movement | Stops movement | Stops tilting |
With Toggle Switch (Parameter No. 71 = 0, Parameter No. 1 = 1)
- Press toggle switch on SW1 (up): initiates upward movement until released.
- Press toggle switch on SW2 (down): initiates downward movement until released.
With Venetian Blinds + Momentary Switch (Parameter No. 71 = 1, Parameter No. 1 = 0)
- Short press (< 0.5s): triggers blind movement.
- Long press (> 0.5s): triggers slats rotation (0–100% or 100–0%).
| Action on Push-Button | Blind Not Moving | Blind Moving Up | Blind Moving Down | Slats Tilting (Venetian) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Short press UP | Start moving up | Stop movement | Stop movement | Stop tilting |
| Short press DOWN | Start moving down | Stop movement | Stop movement | Stop tilting |
| Long press UP | Start tilting slats | No action | No action | Tilts to end |
| Long press DOWN | Start tilting slats | No action | No action | Tilts to end |
| Release after long press | No action | Stop movement | Stop movement | Stop tilting |
With Venetian Blinds + Toggle Switch (Parameter No. 71 = 1, Parameter No. 1 = 1)
- Press toggle SW1 (up): move up until release.
- Press toggle SW2 (down): move down until release.
- If slats at 100% and UP pressed quickly → move up.
- If slats at 0% and DOWN pressed quickly → move down.
Slats Positioning
To achieve precise slat positioning:
- When setting an intermediate position, slats first rotate to 100%, then back to target.
- During downward movement: when limit reached or stopped, slats rotate to 100% then return to previous position.
- During upward movement: upon stop, slats return to prior position.
Main Applications
- Residential
- MDU (Multi Dwelling Units – apartments, condos, hotels, etc.)
- Light Commercial (small offices, retail, restaurants, gas stations)
- Government/Municipal
- University/College
Integrations

Functionality
Automatic Calibration
The device learns the position of the limit switches during calibration.
⚠️ Important Note: For correct operation, automatic calibration must be performed!
⚠️ Critical Requirement: Motor must have electronic or mechanical limit switches properly set before calibration.
Shutter Positioning Calibration (Shutter Mode)
Set Parameter No. 71 = 0
Calibration with Gateway
- Add device to Z-Wave network (via inclusion).
- Set Parameter No. 78 (Forced Shutter Calibration) to
1. - Device performs full cycle: up → down → up → down to 50%.
- Check Parameter No. 78: value should be
2(success),3(not calibrated), or4(error). - Confirm yellow LED is not blinking.
❗ If value is 3 or 4: verify full cycle completion, correct limit switch settings, and proper wiring.
Calibration with Push-Button (SW1)
- Move blind to top (upper) position.
- Press SW1 four times within 3 seconds.
- Device starts calibration and completes 4 cycles (up, down, up, down to 50%).
- No time limit — safe to repeat.
Calibration with S Button
- Enter Setting mode: short press S button.
- Hold S button until yellow LED appears (calibration selected).
- Press and hold S button for >2 seconds to start calibration.
- Confirm yellow LED is not blinking.
❗ If yellow LED still blinks: check full cycle, limit switches, and wiring.
Slats Tilting Position Calibration (Venetian Mode)
Set Parameter No. 71 = 1
After enabling Venetian mode, calibrate slat tilt position:
- Perform standard shutter calibration (as above).
- Set Parameter No. 71 =
1("Venetian blinds"). - Default rotation time: 1.5 seconds.
- Too long? → Decrease Parameter No. 72.
- Too short? → Increase Parameter No. 72.
- Repeat step 3 until slat position is accurate.
✅ Tip: Correct timing ensures slats don’t move blinds up/down during rotation.
