Never press buttons on your transmitter arbi-

trarily without line of sight to the sun shad-

ing product. Children may not play with this 

product – keep remote controls and trans-

mitters out of the reach of children!

OTICE 

N

   The receiver (e.g. the radio plug receiver, 

radio tubular motor) cannot function in the 

event of a power failure. Therefore, raise the 

sun shading system early enough in case of 

an approaching storm.

Due to both legal regulations for radio systems and struc-

tural factors, the operating range of radio remote controls 

is limited. Sufficient radio reception must be ensured when 

planning the project. This is especially the case where the 

radio signal must pass through walls and ceilings. The 

control unit should not be installed in the immediate vicin-

ity of metal components (steel beams, reinforced concrete, 

fire doors). 

 

 

Therefore, check that the receiver is functioning prop-

erly before the final installation.

Strong local transmitter systems (e.g. WLAN) with trans-

mission frequencies identical to those of the control 

system may interfere with reception.

Installation

This device is designed for surface mounting on a build-

ing facade. It can also be mounted on a pole using the 

included cable ties. 

Included fixing materials:

 

2 screws 4.5 x 40 mm

 

2 screw anchors 6 mm

 

2  spacers for wall and ceiling installation (Fig. 2)

 

2 steel cable ties 360 mm

Use suitable fixing materials only. Depending on the sub-

structure (e.g. plastered outer insulation), other screws and 

screw anchors may need to be used.

Important information on the installation loca-

tion

 

 

Attach the device outdoors at a readily accessible but 

raised location.

 

 

Metal-clad buildings, domestic interference sources 

(unshielded household appliances, television sets, 

computers), supply lines and metallic objects such 

as sheet metal enclosures must have a distance of at 

least 0.5 m from the weather station.

Three storage batteries for the power supply are found 

under the cover.

The WMS Weather station eco enables the wireless control 

of sun shading drives and is equipped with sensors for 

brightness and wind speed. The station is solar powered. 

The device transmits weather data to WMS-compatible 

receivers.

Intended use

The WMS Weather station eco is an electronic device to 

control WMS receivers. Any use other than the purpose 

described in these instructions requires approval from the 

manufacturer.

Safety instructions

ARNING

W

 

An automatically controlled mechanism 

may begin to move unexpectedly!

 

 

Therefore, never place any objects in the area of move-

ment of an automatically controlled mechanism.

 

 

Disconnect the power supply of the controlled sun 

shading products before maintaining or cleaning the 

products.
