Rain Function; Brief Description - RADEMACHER Troll Basic DuoFern 5615 Instruction Manual

19. Rain function; brief description

This function enables you to use the Troll Basic DuoFern to operate, for example, a connected
awning in relation to the weather conditions. The automatic rain function can also be switched
on/off by an overriding DuoFern controller (e.g. HomePilot®).
As soon as an external "rain" signal transducer is detected, the control signal can be transferred
from the DuoFern network on the Troll Basic DuoFern.
The direction of operation in the event of rain can also be configured by an over-
riding DuoFern controller (e.g. HomePilot®).
The awning can be retracted (up) or used as a rain cover (down) in the event of rain.

NOTE
◆ The automatic rain function is interrupted in the event of power failure.
◆ If the direction of rotation for rain is set to DOWN and rain is detected when the drive is
at the upper end position, then the drive moves back to the upper end position as soon
as no more rain is detected.
Behaviour of the automatic rain function when the automated solar function is

then the awning moves back to the sunshine position as soon as the automatic rain
function is ended, assuming the automated solar functions are still active.
