Single Motor (Hub) and Remote

IMPORTANT: Prior to motor network setup, install batteries into the SUITE Remote and wait for the LEDs to go out (“asleep”).

Create the Hub Motor — Power up one factory default motor which automatically establishes it as the Hub.

(a) Connect AC power to the motor.

 On motor, Yellow LED is solid and Red LED is

flashing (indicates end limits are not set).

(b) Wait until motor jogs twice.

 Could take up to 3 minutes.

 Yellow LED begins flashing for 60 seconds

(indicates Network Invite Mode).

Important Installation Information

 When shipped, the remote is in Setup Mode to facilitate creation of a motor network.

 When network creation is finished and ready for the end user, you must exit Setup Mode on the remote.

 For best RF performance, the antenna on the motor should maintain as much separation from a conductive surface as possible.

Glossary

Hub Motor - Special designation for the first motor powered up. All commands to additional motors are routed through the Hub motor.

Jog Once - Motor moves a short distance in one direction.

Jog Twice - Motor moves a short distance in two directions.

Remote - The RF transceiver used to set up and operate motors.

Asleep - The default state of a remote is ―asleep‖ — no LEDs are lit. ―Wake Up‖ remote: press and release the UP or DOWN button.

Group - A collection of up to four motors controlled by Group 1, 2, 3, or 4 on an Arc transceiver or Group 1 on a Step transceiver.

LED - Light-emitting diode. Both the remote and the motor head have LEDs in three colors.

Blink - A single on/off of an LED.

Flash - LED turns on and off continuously.

M40/50RF Motor

The M40/50RF motor is equipped with radio frequency technology

and has three buttons with internal LEDs that provide visual

feedback during setup and operation.

Green LED – Button operates the motor in one direction.

Yellow LED – Center Button is used for motor administration.

Red LED – Button operates the motor in the other direction.

SUITE Remote

The SUITE Remote is equipped with radio frequency technology for wireless control

of all ESI RF-enabled motors.

 The SUITE Step remote controls one group of up to four motors.

 The SUITE Arc remote controls four groups of up to four motors each, for a total of sixteen motors.

Wake Up the Remote

The remote must be ―awake‖ to send or receive commands.

To wake up a remote that is ―asleep‖ (no LEDs are lit):

 Press and release the UP or DOWN button.

NOTE: When no buttons are pressed, the remote goes to sleep after 10 seconds

while in User Mode, or after 60 seconds while in Setup Mode.

Join the Remote to the Hub Motor (a) “Wake up” the remote if no LEDs are lit (asleep).  Press and release the UP or DOWN button.  Green “preset” LED is solid (Network Search Mode).4 (b) Put Hub motor into Network Invite Mode. NOTE: if the Yellow LED on the motor is flashing, Skip to Step 2 (d).  Press and release the Center button once. (d) Remote automatically joins the Hub and forms a network.  Green “preset” LED blinks once, and Hub motor jogs once, then jogs twice. (c) On the Hub motor.

Set Limits (continued) (d) Adjust shade to Lower limit position.  Press and hold the DOWN button. (e) Set the Lower end limit.  Simultaneously press and hold STOP and DOWN until motor jogs twice (approximately 2 seconds). (f) Lower end limit is set.  Yellow LED on DOWN button turns off. Set “preset” (OPTIONAL) (a) Adjust shade to desired “preset” position. NOTE: Both end limits must be set prior to setting a ―preset‖ position.  Press and hold the UP (or DOWN) button. (b) Set the “preset.

Add Additional Motors Join Additional Motors to the Network Add up to 4 motors when using a SUITE Step remote. Add up to 16 motors when using a SUITE Arc remote. IMPORTANT: Install the next motor but DO NOT apply power yet. Be sure the remote is in Setup Mode. (a) “Wake up” the remote if no LEDs are lit (asleep).  Press and release the UP or DOWN button. (b) Setup Mode on the remote.  Red LED under “preset” is solid.  Yellow LED under Group 1 is solid. (d) Connect AC power to the next motor.

Motor Group Number Assignment (continued) (a) Select a motor in a group.  Press a Group Number button repeatedly to cycle through motors in that group. For example, press the Group 1 button two times to select the second motor in that group.  Selected motor jogs once. NOTE: The Hub motor will always jog twice when selected. If a Group is full on the remote (4 motors), you cannot move a motor into it. (b) Change a motor’s group number assignment.

Reset Motor to Factory DEFAULT — Complete both steps for a full reset. 1. Clear Limits (a) Press and hold the Center button for 10 seconds. (b) Red LED starts flashing. End limits are now cleared. 2. Clear Network Information (a) Press the Center button 3 times within 1 second. (b) All motor LEDs turn off for 5 seconds, then the Yellow LED flashes for 60 seconds to indicate new devices may join (Network Invite Mode). (c) Motor will join an existing network or become a Hub motor if no network is detected.

TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Reason Solution Installation steps did not work. Reset both the motor and the remote to factory defaults and start again. Non-Hub motor does not respond to commands from the remote, such as UP or DOWN, when its Group Number is selected. Non-Hub motor may not have joined the network. 1. With the remote in Setup Mode and awake:  Press the STOP button.  Green LED under “preset” starts flashing for up to 60 seconds. 2.
