For product installation, maintenance and repairs contact only qualified tech-

1) Product description

The VOLO S RADIO weather sensor measures WIND speed in Km/h,
and the brightness of sunlight in KLux.
It can be used to command programmed motors or control units,
enabling the automation of awnings, rolling shutters and similar fixtures
via a radio control, based on the detected weather conditions.
For example, awnings will open automatically when the programmed
SUNLIGHT level is exceeded, and will close when the WIND level is
exceeded.
The commands are sent by radio, therefore the only connections
required are the electric line ones (see the "Installation" chapter).
VOLO S RADIO is equipped with a programming/transmission button
( ) (Fig. 1, detail B) and a multicoloured indicator light (Led
detail C). It also features an audible signal (Beep
1.1) Command rules
VOLO S RADIO measures WIND speed and brightness of SUNLIGHT.
When the detected value exceeds the programmed level, a command is
sent to the motors or control units as described below:
Wind: when the WIND level is exceeded for a period of at least 3 sec-
onds, an "up" command (corresponding to button
trols) is sent. When the threshold value is exceeded, the LED becomes
red and while the command is being transmitted, the RED LED flashes.
Sun: when the SUN level is exceeded for a period of at least 2 minutes,
a "down" command (corresponding to button
is sent. When the threshold value is exceeded, the LED becomes
GREEN and while the command is being transmitted, the GREEN LED
flashes.
2) Installation
Before you install the unit, test the radio range, as the presence of thick
walls and/or other devices operating at the same frequency can greatly
reduce the range. To check the range, carry out a provisional test (see
"Testing" chapter), positioning yourself, first, near the automation and
then near the place of final installation.
Though the range under favourable conditions, in a free field, can be
100-200 m, taking into account the protection function, we advise you
not to exceed 20-30 m. Moreover, you should make sure that there are
no other devices operating at the same frequency and with continuous
transmission, such as alarms, headphones, etc., which might further
reduce the range.
For proper operation, keep in mind that the weather sensor must be
positioned near the shutter/awning to be protected, in an area that is
exposed to the action of the wind and sun.

3) Electrical connections

The product must be connected to a 230Vac (VOLO S RADIO version)
or 120Vac power source (VOLO S RADIO/V1 version), without ground
connection, as shown in Fig.5, Fig.6 and Fig.7.
After wiring, close the covers on the mounting bracket securely (Fig.1
detail D).
