Mount the drapery track to the wall using the wall mount “L” brackets. Mount the brackets using the spacing illustrated
below. Mount each end bracket at a maximum dimension of between five (5) and six (6) inches from each end of the
track. Space the next bracket on both sides 16 in from the end brackets. Space the remaining brackets 16-24 in apart.
Note: All screws must be securely fastened to stud or structural member.

BRACKETS MUST BE MOUNTED STRAIGHT AND LEVEL
Each bracket must be mounted along a straight and level line. The drapery track must be straight and level to
operate properly. When the wall brackets are securely mounted, install the track to the brackets using the cam locks.

The brackets should be mounted on a straight and level line. If the contour of the ceiling is not straight and level,
use shims between the cam lock bracket and the ceiling to compensate for the irregularities.
To mount the track to the brackets, position all the cam lock lever arms to the unlocked position
(see “unlocked” diagram below). Position the track up against the cam lock brackets and rotate
the cam lock arm to the locked position.

LOADING THE CARRIERS
The drapery carriers are installed at the factory, however, the required number of carriers must be verified. Draperies require
one carrier per hook. The first two drapery hooks should hook on the master carrier for left, right and split draw systems (see
respective diagrams on the next two pages). The number of carriers required is equal to the number of drapery hooks in
fabric minus four (4).

The motor side of the drapery track requires four less carriers than the total number of hooks on the drapery track.
The first two drapery hooks should hook to the master carrier and the last two drapery hooks should hook to the motor
housing. The number of carriers required is different for the idle side. The idle side of the drapery requires three less
carriers than the total number of hooks on the drapery. The first two drapery hooks should hook to the master carrier,
and the last drapery hooks should hook onto the hook eye on the idle endcap. See diagram below.

TIPLE MDU SET-UP CODES
Program each MDU per instructions on page 11.
Link Address:
Each MDU must be set to a unique Link Address number to allow the MDU's to communicate on the communication
link. There are 64 link addresses available, meaning the maximum number of MDU's in a single system is 64.
Room Address: The room address groups MDU's on the communication link. A group is defined as all MDU's with the same room
address number. There are 32 room addresses available in a single system, therefore, a system can have up to 32 groups.
Typically, all MDU's in a room will be set to the same room address. Use the room address to help determine how keypads will
control the MDU's in the system. Refer to the control station setting table below for information on how the room address setting
affects how the system is controlled by keypads or interfaces.
IR Address: Used to set the IR address a MDU will respond to. Some IR hand controls have the ability to control subgroups of
draperies within a group, as defined by the room address described above. There are 8 subgroups available. Each IR address (subgroup) is made up of two parts, the IR address number (1,2,3 or 4) and its drapery location (F or r), the FRONT drapery or the REAR
drapery. Any number of MDU's can have the same IR address. The IR address can also be used to determine subgroups
of the MDU's when a keypad or interface is used to control the system. Refer to the control station setting table below for information on how the IR address affects how the system is controlled by keypads or interfaces.
Control Station: Determines which MDU's in the system will respond to a "Group" keypad or "Group" interface control that is
wired to the MDU being setup. It is not necessary to change the control station setting of an MDU that does not have any keypads
or interfaces wired to it.
There are two types of Sivoia keypads and
interfaces,
group and individual types. The
table to the left describes how a group type
controls a system depending on the
setting of the MDU it is wired to. An individual
type only controls the MDU it is wired to,
regardless of the setting of the MDU it
is wired to.
Group keypads/interfaces and individual
keypads/interfaces can be wired to the same
MDU. A maximum of 9 keypads/interfaces
can be wired to one MDU.
Any keypad or interface
CANNOT be wired to
more than one MDU.

setting to 1. To deactivate, set the scene lockout setting to 0. Changing this setting on any MDU will adjust all the
MDU's in the system. It is not necessary to deactivate the scene lockout setting from the same MDU it was activated it on.

MOUNTING THE IR EYE

Infrared Control
Connect the SV-IR
receiver to the wire
connector on the MDU
Mount the IR eye to the wall, the ceiling or even a non-moving edge of the drapery fabric using a clip. Make sure
the location of the eye is not obstructed by an object.
The SV-IR allows the MDU to be controlled directly with a
Sivoia Infrared Handheld Transmitter (SV-OCIT, SV-3PIT,
or SV-4GD-OCIT). The SV-IR receiver connects to the MDU via a 20 in (51cm) cable. This provides the SV-IR
receiver ample mounting range to offset any infrared signal restriction caused by a protective/decorative covering
for the shade system. To extend the IR receiver mounting range, add up to five (5) SV-IR-EXT-10 extension cables
(10 ft [3 m] each).
Note: To control an individual drapery with an IR transmitter, the SV-IR must be connected to that MDU. If there
is a Group/Subgroup of MDU’s with the same Room/IR Address (see page 11), the SV-IR need only be connected to one of those MDU’s to control the entire Group/Subgroup.
• The SV-IR receiver must be located to allow line-of-sight reception of infrared signals.
• The IR transmitter has a range of 30 ft for the SV-IR to receive its signal.
• The SV-IR must
NOT be located near lighting fixtures or in direct sunlight.
• The SV-IR must be located within 50 ft (15 m) of the MDU it is connected to. Add up to five SV-IR-EXT-10
extension cables (10 ft [3 m] each).

PROBLEM SOLUTION
The draperies will not open or close. 1. Check power to the motor unit by pressing the MODE
button. If the LED display does not show
oL check that:
• transformer has power
• MDU is wired correctly
• power wiring terminal is not miswired or
disconnected
2. Try to open and close the drapery using the buttons
marked open and close on the motor drive unit. If the
drapery does not respond, check for and clear all
obstructions.
3. Check that the Open and Close limits are set correctly.
The Drapery does not respond to keypads or IR. 1. Check that power is connected to the drapery.
2. Check that MDU terminal block is connected securely
and wired correctly.
3. If using wall keypad, check that wall keypad has been
wired correctly.
4. If using IR remote, confirm that SV-IR, infrared receiver
is wired to MDU correctly, and is not obstructed.
5. If using IR remote, check transmitter batteries.
Draperies do not move together in a group 1. Confirm that all MDUs are wired correctly, including
power and Comm Link.
2. Confirm that each MDU has a unique link address, and
a common room address.
3. Confirm that keypad is a group keypad.
Drapery will not move to full open or full close 1. Confirm that open and close limits are set correctly.
2. Confirm that drapery fabric is not obstructed or caught
on something.
3. Confirm that drapery fabric is hanging from only the 1st
and 4th holes of the master car.
