INSTALLATION:

The motor replaces mechanical surface mount strap coilers with strap widths of max. 18mm.

Permitted strap length is max. 4.0m with a strap thickness of 1.2mm.

For shutters (without mechanical gear) with plastic profiles up to approx. 4m^2

Check shutter construction regarding proper operation. The shutter must open and close easily when used manually. The strap must not be frayed; the shutter must not be wedged. Exchange defective parts.
Installation:
First completely close shutter.
Pull the shutter strap out of the mechanical strap coiler and cut shutter strap approx. 30 cm beneath the mechanical strap coiler.
Attention! The shutter strap still in the mechanical strap coiler may spring back uncontrollably.
Keep hold of the strap in such a way that it can be slowly pulled back into strap coiler.
Now remove the fastening screws of the mechanical surface mount coiler (see fig.1) and store screws in order to fasten the electrical strap coiler later.
The electrical strap coiler should be located in the same place as the mechanical strap coiler.
Therefore check that the distance between the drill holes of the electrical strap coiler correspond with the drill holes of the mechanical strap coiler.
Correspondence:
Fasten the electrical strap coiler with the designated mountings. Fasten screws as shown in fig.2 in order to attach strap coiler.
Non-correspondence:
Measure exact position of both drill holes using a metering rule or the drilling template (See center of this manual).
Hold drilling template up against the wall (or the window frame) in desired position. Make sure about the vertical alignment of the template (if necessary using a water level) and mark the position of the drill holes using a pen. Bore both holes where marked using a drill. Now fasten the electrical strap coiler using the designated mountings. Fasten both of the screws as shown in fig.2 in order to fasten the strap coiler.
Pay attention to the secure grip of the screws!


Loosen the screw of the strap spool cover using a screw driver (see fig.3). Extract screw so far as to be able to lift the strap spool cover off (see fig.4).
Inside the appliance the spool disc will become visible and the rail for fastening the shutter strap is located at its centre.


Now insert the strap into the strap coiler from the top (see fig.5) and slide it into the appliance until it reaches the middle of the strap spool disc and you can get a hold of the end of the strap. Make sure that the shutter strap is not twisted at any point from exiting the wall until reaching the shutter strap coiler. In order to insert the end of the strap into the rail of the strap spool it is possible to touch the rail of the spool and pull it out a little (see fig.6)


Insert strap into the strap spool as shown in fig.7. The end of the strap should protrude on the right hand side approx. 3cm . Turn strap spool to the right in clockwise direction until strap has wrapped itself around the rail twice (see fig.8) and push the extracted strap spool back into the coiler.
Now close the shutter strap coiler back up with the strap spool cover and refasten the screw as shown in fig.3 using a screw driver.


Now take the wall plug transformer and put it into the designated opening at the bottom of the appliance (see fig.9). Now put the plug into the socket in the wall (see fig.10).
The installation is now complete.

The shutter strap coiler may only be used in connection with the provided wall plug transformer version 041AGW02.


Installation of light sensor GWLS1 (accessory):
A light sensor incl. plug and approx. 1.3m of power cable are separately available.
In order to install the light sensor put the plug of the light sensor in the designated opening with the six pins at the bottom of the appliance (see fig.11+12). Clean the window pane and position the light sensor onto the window pane as desired. Information: The shutter strap motor will close the shutter after 15min of direct sunlight to the position of the light sensor. In order to open/close shutter again, press corresponding button on the control panel; this may also be achieved by activated timer control. To remove or relocate the light sensor only pull on the small plug (fig.13) of the transparent suction cup. Pulling/Pushing the white plastic top may lead to destruction of light sensor.



Initial set up:
Make sure that shutter can move freely. Obstacles, e.g. flowerpots on the outer window-sill, are to be removed. Make sure that stoppers/conical stops are existent and that these have a firm connection with the shutter. Now push any one of the three buttons of the shutter strap motor (fig.14). In the following the window size is automatically measured, i.e. defining of upper- and lowermost limit. The shutter strap motor will pull the shutter up until the conical stops reach the shutter box (or wall). A humming sound indicates the correct functioning of the motor.
Then the shutter will be lowered automatically until completely closed and the lower limit is defined. Finally the shutter will be opened again automatically and will stop shortly before reaching upper limit. Attention: The automatical measuring cannot be interrupted. Should this process be interrupted through power failure or should the plug be pulled accidentally, start over again = push any one of the three buttons.
After completing this process the initial set up is finished. The shutter can be opened or closed by pushing the Open- or Close-button ( fig.14).
Safety function:
If obstacle is hit or shutter profiles are tilted the GWAP120 will shut down automatically. This avoids personal or property damage.
Continue with Timer Control if automatic opening/closing is desired.

FAQ's:
- Motor does not work.
Power supply is interrupted.
Check cable connection between motor and socket.
Check if there is a power failure.
- Shutter does not close.
There is a malfunction of shutter installation.
Check entire equipment and remove the malfunction.
Pay special attention to:
- Dislocated lamella – because not locked into sideways position
- Sideways locking of lamella - due to damage
- Funnel-guides at upper end of rails
In order to do this cover of shutter box may have to be opened. (Note: according to DIN 18073 shutter box lid must be easily accessible and removable).
- Shutter is not heavy enough.
Weigh it down, e.g. insert suitable flat bar into the lowest lamella. - Shutter does not stop at programmed limits.
Strap is overstretched.
Do a reset.
- Programmed times are shifted.
Possible cause:
(brief) power failure
- Internal clock stopped. Programmed times are consequently shifted. Readjust timer control (see p.4)
- Humming sound when under heavy load.
Load is larger than 120N / 12kg. Make sure that shutter is not stuck. Check the pulling weight by using the strap and with the aid of mechanical scales. When pulling at the strap the weight shown on the scales will lessen by the force needed to move the strap. The difference between your body weight and the measured value when pulling the strap must not exceed 12kg.
