INSTALLATION
D.
The Vibration Sensor (If Applicable)
IMPACT OR CRUSH HAZARD . This product should be installed in a controlled environment (inside) . Do NOT
install product during windy conditions, or when wind is expected. Otherwise, product could move unpredictably, become
unstable, and could detach, bend, or collapse.
• Fully close the awning .
STEP 1
Vibration Sensor
9200 Awnings
STEP 3
Top
2"
Casting
Pop
Rivets x2
Sensor Base
a . Using the top hole in the left hardware front channel
as a reference, measure down 2 inches, then mark
the mounting hole locations using the sensor base as
a template .
b . Drill two #11 holes at the marked hole locations in the
LH front channel .
c . Use installer-supplied pop rivets to attach the sensor
base to the LH front channel .
d . Re-install the vibration sensor onto the sensor base .
No direct correlation exists between the sensitivity settings on this sensor and true wind speed. The vibration sensor will
close the awning any time the motion in the attached hardware arm reaches the pre-set level regardless of the cause of
this motion. Wind speed, angle of attack, and the size of the awning are only a few factors that can affect how an awning
reacts to environmental conditions .
Refer to "B . Adjusting The Vibration Sensor (If Applicable)" on page 7 if the sensor fails to activate or the sensor is too
sensitive .
