Note: The Keypad and the roller shutter motorization have to work under the same radio protocol (RTS or io).
In order to avoid losing this screw, we made it captive. When you unscrew, you will feel that the screw will get fully free. This indicates that it is completely unscrewed!
Once your Keypad is well installed in its back cover, you can slide up the front face by a few millimeters, but you can only reassemble it completely by screwing the screw at the bottom of the front face.
This is probably due to a bad installation in the back cover. Unscrew and take out the front face from the back cover. Then replace again, making sure to follow the instructions carefully. If the front face is in place, it should be at the same height as the flaps of the back cover. Do not forget to screw the screw to complete the installation.
When multiple false code attempts (15 false attempts), the keypad indicates an error feedback during 2min and no longer takes any tries into account.
You must then wait until the end of the 2 minutes to try again. Warning, another false attempt will restart the blockage for 2min. The only way out of this loop is to enter the correct code.
If you can’t remember your code, you can reset your keypad in factory configuration via the reset button for 7s. You will then need to reset your password and pair again your equipment.
When the battery button of your keypad is almost empty, we turn off the sound to save it as long as possible. If by changing the battery button, the problem is not solved, then it may come from a defect in your product.

Procedure:
The number 74300 on the back of your Somfy remote control corresponds to the postal code of Cluses in France. Somfy's head office is located there.
Our remote control models have multiple functions. Determine which criteria are important to your project, and find the model that best satisfies your needs and desires.
1. Feedback. The remote control emits a visual or audio signal informing you that the command was received and carried out. This function is only available with remote controls that use the io-homecontrol radio protocol. 2. The “My” function Memorises the favourite position of a product, allowing the user to go to it instantly by pushing the ‘my” button on the remote control. 3. Centralised control: Control multiple motorised devices quickly and easily. This function is integrated into the multichannel remote controls or the Situo 5 io, Nina io, Nina Timer io or Chronis io equipment. 4. Timer function. The Timer allows you to turn on motorised equipment at predefined times. This function is available on the Nina Timer io and Chronis io remote controls. 5. Discreet mode. Reduce the motorised roller shutter’s speed for optimal acoustic comfort! This function is available with the Smoove RS100 io, the Nina io range and the S&SO RS100 io motor. 6. Variation function. This function is ideal for Venetian blinds since it allows you to adjust the slats to reduce the light intensity and keep your home cool. Available with the Situo Variation io and Telis Variation RTS remote controls. 7. Comfort. For extra comfort and security, protect your equipment with sun, wind and/or rain sensors.
The points to check before selecting a remote control:
1. What technology do you use? Our remote controls operate using RTS radio and io-homecontrol protocols. Your motorised shutters, screens or blinds must use the same radio technology in order for the remote control to work.
2. How many devices do you want to control with the remote? If you have multiple motorised shutters, screens or blinds, we recommend you choose a multi-device remote control that allows you control them individually or all together. Warning: a single-device remote control will only control one motorised device.
The My button stops the blind when it is moving. You can also stop it by turning the thumbwheel, or by pressing the Up or Down button.
