Step 1. Cut roller tube to required length. Step 2. Ensure roller tube is clean and free from burrs. Step 3. Fit required crown, drive and bracket adapters. Tube must be close fitting with chosen crown and drive adapters. Refer to Rollease Acmeda System Assembly Manual for recommended crown, drive, and bracket adapter kits. Crown Retaining Clip Drive Step 4. Slide Motor into tube. Insert by aligning keyway in crown and drive wheel to the tube. Step 5. Mount motorized tube onto brackets. Refer to Rollease Acmeda System Assembly Manual for recommended crown, drive, and bracket adapter kits. Motor Head Adapter Bracket 5 | Automate Programming Instructions | DC Tubular Motors ROLLEASE ACMEDA 2 WIRING 2.1 Power options Automate DC motors are powered from a 12V DC power source. AA Battery wands, re-chargeable battery packs and A/C power supplies are available, with a variety of quick connect extension cords. For centralized installations, power supply range can be extended with 18/2 wire (not available through Acmeda Rollease). During operation, if voltage drops to less than 10V, the motor will beep 10 times to indicate a power supply issue. Motor will stop running when the voltage is lower than 7V and it will resume again when the voltage is greater than 7.5V.

Remedy Replace 8 x AA alkaline batteries. Check motor to power cable connection and AC plug. Transmitter battery is discharged Replace battery Battery is inserted incorrectly into transmitter Check battery polarity Motor is not responding Radio interference/shielding Receiver distance is too far from transmitter Power failure Incorrect wiring Motor beeps 10 times when in use Battery voltage is low. Cannot program a single Motor
(multiple motors respond) Multiple motors are paired to the same channel. Ensure transmitter is positioned away from metal objects and the aerial on motor or receiver is kept straight and away from metal Move transmitter to a closer position Check power supply to motor is connected and active Check that wiring is connected correctly (refer to motor installation instructions) Replace batteries in battery wand
-OR-
Recharge rechargable battery pack. Always reserve an individual channel for programming functions SYSTEM BEST PRACTICE - Provide an extra 15 channel controller in your multi motor projects, that provides individual control for each motor for programming purposes Place all other motoprs into sleep mode (ref to P1 button function overview - Section 3) 15 | Automate Programming Instructions | DC Tubular Motors ROLLEASE ACMEDA This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules / Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s).
