All CentronicPlus receivers can be operated with the Centronic transmitters listed in the Centronic/CentronicPlus compatibility table at www.becker-antriebe.com/downloads As two fundamentally different radio technologies are linked in this case, the full performance of the CentronicPlus radio control system is not available in this combination. When using the Centronic transmitter with CentronicPlus receiver, the range perform- ance may be reduced under certain circumstances.
Connecting the tubular drive Connect the tubular drive to the power supply. 230V AC / 50 Hz 1 = blue 3 = black 2 = brown 4 = green / yellow Switch on the power. ► The tubular drive confirms. Establish programming mode This step is only necessary if one of the devices to be programmed is not yet part of the in- stallation.
Programming the CentronicPLUS transmitter With brand new products, devices from another installation or products that have been re- stored to factory settings, programming mode must be established beforehand (see Es- tablishing programming mode). Bring the transmitter as close as possible to the receiver to be programmed. Press the programming button for 3 seconds when it is ready to program.
Adding additional transmitters to the installation If installation data already exists for the transmitter being programmed, the procedure will be terminated. Termination is indicated by the red flashing of the LED ring. In this case, the transmitter will need to be restored to factory settings (see corresponding transmitter in- structions).
Checking that the running direction is correct The direction of rotation can only be changed if no limit position has been set. There are several ways to change the direction of rotation: • Changing direction of rotation via the direction switch •...
Intelligent installation management Completion of installation following automatic setting of limit positions The drive saves the limit position permanently once the upper limit position is reached 3 times in succession. Installation is then complete. If the limit position is set above a point, this is stored permanently. Limit position status indicator A brief stopping and restarting indicates that no limit position has been set in that direction of movement.
Lower point to upper stop Select the required receiver as described in the chapter Selection of the receiver for the setting mode [} 12]. Close to the desired lower limit position. Press the programming button and, within 3 seconds, also press the button and hold the two buttons down.
2) Extending the range of travel (the desired limit position is located outside the current range of travel) Attention When both or individual limit positions are deleted, all the other set functions (intermediate position I, intermediate position II) are deleted as well. Select the required receiver as described in the chapter Selection of the receiver for the setting mode [} 12].
Deleting both limit positions Any additional functions that may have been set are deleted at the same time, or are reset to the factory default settings. Select the required receiver as described in the chapter Selection of the receiver for the setting mode [} 12].
Deleting the desired intermediate position Move the shading solution to the intermediate position that is to be deleted. Now press the STOP button and, within 3 seconds, also press the travel button as- signed to the intermediate position and hold the two buttons down. ▻...

Setting the limit positions with Auto-install (for ZIP applications with heavy end strip) For proper execution of the auto-install function, the necessary torque in the lower limit position must be at least 1/3 of the rated torque of the tubular drive used. Example: Tubular drive 12 Nm, barrel diameter 85 mm (r= 0.0425 m, no part of the shading solution is on the barrel when uncoiled).
Programming the run times This function is available with all CentronicPlus EasyControl transmitters and with Centronic devices only equipped with "MemoControl" transmitters from the Becker range of control units. Both limit positions must be set before the Memo function is set.
5 seconds. Activating / deactivating the run times with a Centronic transmitter This function is only available with MemoControl transmitters from the Becker Centronic range of control units. The Memo function is activated and deactivated via the slide switch. The last changeover to be performed is valid.
Restoring the factory settings of the tubular drive The factory settings can only be restored via the universal programming unit (Item no. 4935 000 001 0). Connect the wires of the tubular drive to those of the same colour in the programming unit.
