Normal/master mode The transmitter can be operated in two modes: • Normal mode (normal operation) The commands that are issued apply to all the receivers of a channel. • Master mode (Setting mode for all B‑Tronic products) The commands issued apply exclusively to one selected receiver of a channel. The normal mode is set at the factory.
Programming the first transmitter The receiver mode must always be set appropriately for the receiver. Roller shutter/venetian blind is the factory setting. Putting the receiver into programming mode Follow the Assembly and Operating Instructions for the re- ceiver. • Switch off the power supply to the receiver for 5 seconds, then switch it back on •...
Querying/Changing the receiver mode The receiver mode must always be set appropriately for the receiver. Roller shutter/venetian blind is the factory setting. Querying the current receiver mode There are different receiver modes. The receiver mode must always be set ap- propriately for the receiver (e.g.
Page 11
Changing to the desired receiver mode The current receiver mode is first indicated through the dis- play code. Briefly press the programming button, and then the changeover button for 5 seconds. Flashes Receiver mode roller shutter yellow once Flashes Receiver mode dimmer yellow twice Flashes...
Programming more transmitters The receiver mode must always be set appropriately for the receiver. Roller shutter/venetian blind is the factory setting. Programming more B-Tronic transmitters in the B- Tronic receiver Put the receiver into programming mode in one of the three possible ways. Please make sure that only one receiver is in programming mode at any time.

Deleting transmitters Deleting from B-Tronic receivers with two B-Tronic transmitters Put a programmed transmitter, other than the one that is to be de- leted, into master mode. Select the device by pressing the button until the desired device confirms. All the following settings will then only be executed for this device. While the transmitter is in master mode, the sym- bols on the changeover button flash green once per second.
Page 15
Deleting from B-Tronic receivers with one B-Tronic transmitter The last or only transmitter in a receiver can be deleted using the following deletion sequence. To program new transmit- ters, the receiver must again be put into programming mode. Put the transmitter into master mode. Select the device by pressing the button until the desired device confirms.
Deleting a B-Tronic transmitter from a KNX RF compatible receiver from another manufacturer Please find the appropriate description in the instructions for the receiver or on our website. Changing the direction of rotation of B- Tronic products Check the direction of rotation before setting the limit positions. The shading solution must move in the correct direction when the UP or DOWN buttons are pressed.
Setting the limit positions of B-Tronic tubular drives Upper stop to lower stop Put the transmitter into master mode. Select the tubular drive by pressing the button until the tubular drive con- firms. All the following settings will then only be executed for this device. Open to the permanent upper stop.
Upper point to lower point Put the transmitter into master mode. Select the tubular drive by pressing the button until the tubular drive con- firms. All the following settings will then only be executed for this device. There is no shading solution length adjustment with this limit position setting.
Upper stop to lower point Put the transmitter into master mode. Select the tubular drive by pressing the button until the tubular drive con- firms. All the following settings will then only be executed for this device. Open to the permanent upper stop. ▻...
Deleting the limit positions of B-Tronic tubular drives Attention When one or both of the limit positions are deleted, all the other set functions (e.g. intermediate position) are deleted as well. Once set, the limit positions can only be deleted using mas- ter mode.
Deleting both limit positions Put the transmitter into master mode. Select the tubular drive by pressing the button until the tubular drive con- firms. All the following settings will then only be executed for this device. Open/close the shading solution to a point between the limit positions.
Press the programming button and, within 1 second, also press the DOWN button and hold the two buttons down. ▻ The receiver confirms. ► The programming run is completed. Deleting the programming run on B-Tronic radio receivers Put the transmitter into master mode. Select the receiver by pressing the button until the required receiver con- firms.
Intermediate positions/tilt positions The intermediate positions or tilt positions are freely select- able positions for the shading solution or blind between the two limit positions. Each travel button can be assigned one intermediate position/tilt position. Both limit positions must be set before an intermediate position is set. When both or individual limit positions are deleted, both in- termediate positions/tilt positions are deleted as well.
Page 24
Travelling to the desired intermediate position/tilt position Press the travel button for the desired intermedi- ate position/tilt position twice within one second. ► The shading solution runs to the intermedi- ate position/tilt position assigned to the travel button. Lights up Action successful with all receivers (green) or not green / successful with at least one receiver (red).
Memory function Every B-Tronic radio receiver for roller shutter and blind installations can save switching times for UP and DOWN movement. In the " " operating mode, this movement is repeated every 24 hours. It does not matter what position the / changeover button is in when pro- gramming the switching time.
Deleting the run times When deleting, both run times are always deleted. To delete the UP and DOWN run time, press the STOP button for 10 seconds. The receiver confirms. The run times are now deleted. Upper anti-freeze mechanism The upper anti-freeze mechanism (if present in the receiver) helps to prevent the roller shutter from freezing in the upper limit position, as the roller shutter stops just before the upper stop.
Activating/Deactivating upper anti-freeze mechanism Put the transmitter into master mode. Select the receiver by pressing the button until the desired receiver con- firms. All the following settings will then only be executed for this device. Open the shading solution to the upper limit position. Then re-press the programming button and also the STOP and UP buttons for approx.
Open the shading solution to the upper limit posi- tion. Then press the teaching button and also the STOP and UP buttons for approximately 5 seconds. ▻ The receiver confirms. Activating/deactivating repeater mode Put the transmitter into master mode. Select the receiver by pressing the button until the desired receiver con- firms.
Reset the transmitter to the factory setting Attention If the transmitter is reset to factory settings, master mode will no longer give you access to the receiver or receivers in which the transmitter has been programmed. Please only make this setting when the batteries are new. Open the cover of the battery compartment.
Clean-up function for B-Tronic products All receivers that are programmed and no longer present can be cleared with the clean-up function. The clean-up function is always applied to the selected chan- nel. The switching commands sequence must be carried out in quick succession.
Changing batteries You will find the appropriate battery type in the "Technical data" chapter. Flashes If the status LED gives slow yellow flashes while yellow the button is being pressed, the batteries are al- most empty, and must be exchanged as soon as possible.
Wall bracket Check that the transmitter and receiver are working properly before mounting in the desired position. Fasten the bracket to the wall using the two enclosed screws. Now push the screw covers into the screw holes. Cleaning Only clean the device with a suitable cloth. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents that may damage the surface.
