Explanation of functions
Transmission control light
The transmission control light is illuminated when a radio
signal is being transmitted.
The transmission control light will flash during transmission if
battery power is low.
The transmission power or radio operating range will decrease
as battery power decreases. If the transmission control light
does not light up when the buttons are pressed, the batteries
must be replaced.
Group control
Group control refers to the operation of one or more receivers
at the same time.The group selected is controlled via a control
command.
The VarioTel-915 is used to operate groups via five radio channels.
Select button
The select button may be used to select and programme up to
5 channels. The LED lights for the different channels light up to
indicate when a given channel is being used.
An additional channel is reserved for central command control.
This is allocated automatically. When the central command is
active, all five LEDs light up.
Note: The inlay card beneath the transparent cover can be
used to make a note of the groups which have been
programmed.

1. Move the curtain/canopy/blind in the UP direction using the
handheld transmitter until the ventilation slits are open or
the reverse position has been reached.
Note: Keep the UP button pressed until the desired position
is reached.

Programming radio channel settings
Note: If more than one receiver is connected to the same supply
lead, all of these will be in programming mode
simultaneously. The shutters/awnings/blinds will begin to
move up and down “at random”. The longer you take to
carry out the programming, the larger the offset will be.
Individual channels can now be assigned to the given
receiver.
To stop the brief up and down movements, press the
STOP button on one of the pre-programmed handheld
transmitters briefly.
Channel assignment/modification can now be carried out
without you having to disconnect individual receivers.
Select the desired channel using the Select button.
If the shutter/awning/blind moves in the wrong direction,
the transmitter must be deleted and re-programmed.
