Wired Technology
The traditional method for electric and automatic control: a switch or control wired to a motor. Hard-wired solutions can be controlled as a group and/or individually. The motor is controlled via a fixed control point which is wired for each shading application.
If a wired solution is required for a development, thought should be given to the location of electrical feeds and access prior to installation. Poor planning means additional costs can be incurred during the installation process because of access problems and disruption to interior fixtures.
It is possible to upgrade a wired system? It is possible to upgrade to a wireless solution by adding an RTS receiver which will centralise orders and transmit them to the motors via the existing wiring. Click here to view Somfy's range of wired solutions
