3.5. Akustratus - electric installation.
The Akustratus screen has built-in rechargeable battery. The battery is charged first time during screen manufacturing process. Before first operation of the screen it is highly recommended the full charging battery processed to be performed as follows:
- Connect the charger plug to the screen charging outlet located at the left end of the screen. Plug the charger to the wall outlet.
- The screen battery charging indicator will lit orange.
- The charging indicator will stop lighting when the battery is fully charged. Estimated battery charging time – 6 hours.
- Disconnect the battery charger from the wall outlet and from the screen charging outlet, the screen is ready for use.
- Lowering battery level will be noticed by the sound signal generated in the shortening period of time during screen engine operation.
- The charging indicator will lit orange and green, and the continuous sound will be heard during the last screen engine operation (rolling in/out) possible before battery recharging.
- Each next trial of screen operation (pushing any of the remote control buttons) will cause the charging indicator to light orange and green, without the screen engine operation. In order to secure battery against full unloading and capacity corruption the screen controller will switch off and generate the sound signal. The next screen engine operation will be possible after battery charging.

3.6. Stratus/Akustratus s creen programming.
.
!!! NOTICE !!! The screen was programmed properly at the factory and there is no need to reprogram it without any
important reason. Setting of screen extreme positions was made by manufacturer.
If you need to change the screen extreme position follow the instructions described below.
Programing the length of the rolled out screen (screen bottom bar position).
- Roll up the screen until it will stop automatically in the upper position.
- Insert regulation wrench included in the screen set into the regulation slot (see picture. 6) located in the left bottom
part of the screen .
Regulation knob “2” (back) enables setting of the lower extreme position of the screen bottom bar:
„+” - means increasing the lenght of the fabrics is rolled down when the screen is rolled out,
„–” - means decreasing the length of the fabrics is rolled down when the screen is rolled out.
!!! IMPORTANT !!!
Do not decrease (tuning knob 1+) the range of the rolled down surface. It can damage the screen.
Do not increase (regulation 2+) the range of the surface which was rolled down behind the STOP mark, placed in the upper right corner of the screen. Rolling down the screen behind the mark can damage the screen.
3.7. +RC remote control system programming
The Stratus screens with built-in +RC control system was programmed at the factory. Screen programming can be performed with the remote control transmitter based on the programming procedure. Detailed programming procedure is described in the separate programming manual supplied with the screen.
For safety reasons the screen can be operated manually in case of the remote transmitter or remote transmitter battery failure. To do so the electric switch must be applied to the screen control cables (see picture 10). Press the switch button, the screen engine will start operation and will continue as long as the switch button is pressed (screen will roll down). The next time the switch button will be pressed the screen engine will start operation again, the screen rotation direction will be changed (screen will roll up). The engine will stop operation automatically as soon as the programmed screen bottom bar end position will be reached.
3.8. Akustratus remote control system programming
In order to use more than one Akustratus screen at the same location requires the screen control system will be programmed different control codes. In order to control single screen with multiple remote transmitters requires all transmitters to be coded with the same control code. Screen controller and remote transmitters control codes can be programmed with programming jumpers located at the screen controller board and the remote transmitter main board with the following way:
- De-install screen from the wall/ceiling installation brackets and place at the flat surface (i.e. table, etc.). The screen should be placed with the screen closing flap facing up,
- De-install left plastic side cover to access the screen controller board,
- Open the transmitter bottom cover unwrap the mounting screw,
- You can change the screen controller and transmitter control codes by changing location of the programming jumpers.
- The transmitter will operate with the screen in case the picture created with the programming jumpers at the transmitter will be the mirror picture of the programming jumpers at the screen controller board (see picture 12).
