It is the responsibility of
the installer to warn all
potential end users of
the dangers of interfering
with mechanisms during
operation
WARNING
IMPORTANT
Mechanisms which lift
or move weights need
to be checked on a
yearly basis for any
damage which may
result in an accident

CORRECT INSTALLATION
The installation sweep angle shares an end point
with the maximum sweep angle, allowing the
RIGHT limit switch to be seen.

INCORRECT INSTALLATION
The installation sweep angle works within the
maximum sweep angle so neither limit switch can
be seen during normal operation.
Cut-outs in base plate identify
limit switch positions
Mechanism Positioning
The FME enables a screen to be rotated
up to 60
in both directions from center.
Software allows intermediate positions to
be learnt and selected using the IR
remote.
! IMPORTANT !
In installations where the full 120
of
travel is not required or possible it is
important that the RIGHT end switche can
be seen to ensure accurate and
consistent positioning of the mechanism.
If there are obstructions that prevent the
mechanism being able to rotate 120
the
RIGHT limit switch must be positioned
within the installation sweep angle.
A new LEFT limit position can be set
using the IR remote (see Page 4).
Arrow cut-outs in the base plate show
each limit switch position, these should be
used when positioning the mechanism.

PRESET
Mechanism Control
PRESET POSITIONS
Preset positions become active once the
mechanism has travelled fully LEFT and fully
RIGHT or a maximum LEFT limit is set.
To adjust presets press STOP in the desired
position then STORE and you’ll have a 2 sec
window to press PRESET or buttons A-F to
save that position to that particular button.
If the power is cut while the mechanism is
moving its position will need to be rereferenced (see Mechanism Reset).
Until referenced, the mechanism will not be
able to access stored positions and will only
be able to move right in short pulses.
MECHANISM RESET
If the mechanism does not see one of the limit
switches for a long period of time its position
counting may lose accuracy.
To re-reference the position counting simply
send the mechanism to the RIGHT position.
If the full 120
sweep is not being used the
mechanism must be able to be sent to the
RIGHT limit (see Page 3 for details).
SETTING LEFT LIMIT
If the full 120
travel cannot be used because
of physical obstructions the LEFT limit can be
programmed by stopping the mechanism at
the desired position and pressing STORE then
LEFT.
This limit can be cleared by pressing STORE
then STOP then LEFT.
If the LEFT limit is set by the installer the
preset positions will be equally spaced
between this new travel sweep.
