6. Use and operating mode

6.1 Battery charging

After the Oximo 40 Wirefree™ RTS kit has been installed and commissioned, the battery is charged
with electrical energy by the solar panel:
- The electrical energy transmitted by the solar panel is stored by the battery to supply the Oximo 40
WireFree™ DC RTS motor.

6.2 Excessive discharge protection for the battery

Each time the motor receives a raising or lowering command,
it checks the battery voltage to ensure it is not discharged
below 10 V.
- If the battery voltage is above 11.5 V: the motor is operating
normally.
- If the voltage is below 11.5 V and above 10 V:
- When the Up button is pressed, the roller shutter stops
EULHÀ\ ZKHQ UDLVLQJ
- When the Down button or STOP/my button is pressed,
the roller shutter does not perform the requested
operation but performs two brief movements in the same
direction.
These actions indicate a low battery level.
- If the voltage is less than 10 V:
- The roller shutter will not operate.
Thanks to the solar panel(s), the battery voltage will rise back
up above 12 V, and the motor will resume normal operation.
However, there is an alternative solution to recharge the
battery using the Somfy compatible external battery charger,
see next section.
Never leave the battery discharged.

6.3 Maintenance

The service life of the Oximo WireFree™ Battery is between 3 and 5 years.
- If the roller shutter behaves abnormally as described in the previous section, and the motor does not
return to normal operation after a sunny period:
Have the battery recharged by a professional, using the Somfy compatible external battery
charger: see "Recharging the battery".
‡ See manual for Oximo WireFree™ Solar Panel.
- If this happens again after the 3 year period:
Replace the battery:
