Wire technology

Our first generations of products use wire technology. Your motorised equipment (shutter or awning) is ordered with a wall-mounted control panel connected to the motor by a wire embedded in the wall. Now, most of our products integrate radio technologies which allow you to enjoy the comfort of remote control. Are you currently equipped with a product using wired technology, and looking to make the switch to radio technology? You can, with the help of a radio transmitter. Find out how it works!

Good to know

Are radio waves dangerous for your health?



A mobile phone has a transmission power of about 1 watt and a Wi-Fi box may transmit about 0.1 watts. For motorised radio equipment, we’re down to milliwatts. What’s more, the equipment is only used 1 to 10 seconds per day. In short, radio-powered equipment emits 1,000 times less power and for a period of time that’s 1,000 times shorter than that of a mobile phone.
