Frequently Asked Questions - Freevia Line SOMFY

How to unlock the motor manually?

Move the motor handle to the unlock position (push the handle outward). The gear is released and the gate can be operated manually.

How to start the gate travel self-learning?

Make sure the motor is powered (indicator flashes twice) and the gate is at half-stroke. Press the control electronics button. The gate performs a full cycle and the indicator remains steady at the end of learning.

What to do if the gate does not respond to the remote control?

Check the remote control battery (replace with CR2430 or CR2032). Ensure the motor is locked and the remote is programmed. If the range is reduced, check the antenna and any potential radio interference.

How to add a new remote control?

Press the control electronics button for 2 seconds (indicator on). Place the remote against the electronics and briefly press the chosen button. The radio indicator lights up then goes off: the remote is memorized.

How to activate automatic closing?

Automatic closing requires wired and recognized photocells. Press the button for 2 seconds, place the remote against the electronics, hold button 1 until the indicator flashes, then press button 2 and follow the procedure: press button 1 three times to confirm.

What speed options are available?

By default, the gate operates at standard speed. For heavy gates, you can set a slow speed adapted to the weight (see table in manual). Slow speed reduces force and must be used with a safety edge for gates over 200 kg.

How to connect the photocells?

Wire the cells to the BUS terminals (3-4) of the control electronics. Power the motor back on and start a movement so the cells are recognized. If they are obstructed during closing, the gate stops and reopens.

What to do if the '⏻' indicator flashes 3 times?

This flashing indicates a photocell fault. Check that there is no obstacle, the cells are aligned and properly wired. If you removed the cells, disable automatic closing.

How to replace the remote control battery?

Remove the clip, insert a screwdriver into the slot to lift the cover, then remove the old battery with a screwdriver. Replace it with a 3V CR2430 or CR2032 battery respecting polarity.

What is the procedure to reset the motor settings?

Press the button for 2 seconds, place a programmed remote against the electronics, hold button 1 until the indicator flashes. Press button 1 twice to reset settings, or hold button 2 to also delete the remote controls.

A speed not adapted to the weight of the gate could cause serious injury to users, for example by being crushed by the gate. To meet the requirements of standard EN 12453, it is essential to comply with the field of application constraints.

By default, the gate operates at standard speed

▶ Field of application

Set the gate speed in accordance with the table below:

Gate weight Standard speed Slow speed
0 to <100 kg
100 to <200 kg	[OKWZ]
200 to <300 kg	+ safety edge*	[CH30]
300 to <400 kg	[2OH5] + safety edge*
400 to 500 kg		+ safety edge*

• safety edge*

5.1 Presenting the remote controls

2-button remote control

4-button remote control

Depending on the choice of settings, Somfy RTS remote controls can control:

• full opening of the gate
• pedestrian opening of the gate
- another Somfy RTS device (example: garage door motor, roller shutter, etc.)

The remote controls supplied with the kit are already memorised and programmed so that button 1 on the remote controls activates full opening of the gate.

i

You can memorise up to 16 control points for a motor (remote controls, other radio control points). If you memorise a 17th control point, the first point memorised will automatically be deleted.

i

If you wish to programme a pedestrian opening, it must be programmed on the button following the one used to open the gate fully (e.g.: full opening controlled by button 2, pedestrian opening controlled by button 3).

It is not possible to programme pedestrian opening on button 1 of the remote controls.

▶ Possibilities for programming the 2-button remote control

	Button 1	Button 2
Possibility 1	Complete opening Pedestrian opening	or otherSomfy RTS automatism
Possibility 2 Another Somfy RTS device Complete opening
