Other useful
information
◆ If the battery is placed in an environ-
ment with extremely high temperatures,
this can lead to an explosion or a spill of
flammable liquid or flammable gas.
◆ A battery exposed to extremely low air
pressure can cause an explosion or the
release of flammable liquids or gases.
The ingress of liquids (e.g. cleaning agents
during window cleaning) can damage the
DuoFern Sun Sensor.
◆ Remove the DuoFern Sun Sensor from
the window before cleaning the window.
◆ The vibration function is activated when
removing it from the window and when
installing it at a later stage.
2. Safety instructions
If the coin-cell battery is swallowed, it
can cause severe internal burns and death
within just 2 hours.
◆ Children must not replace batteries.
◆ Do not swallow the battery, risk of acid
burns.
◆ Store new and used batteries out of the
reach of children. If the battery com-
partment does not close securely, stop
using the product and keep it away from
children. If you believe that batteries may
have been swallowed or made their way
into any part of the body, seek medical
advice immediately.
Risk of fire and explosion
◆ There is a risk of fire or explosion if the
battery is replaced with an incorrect type.
In addition, replacing a battery with
an incorrect type can override a safety
device.
◆ Throwing a battery into a fire or hot oven
or mechanically crushing or cutting a
battery can lead to an explosion.

4. Product description /
functions
The battery-operated DuoFern Sun Sensor is used for
the brightness-dependent control of logged-on DuoFern
devices. In addition, the built-in vibration sensor detects
vibrations, for example, due to glass breakage.
Please also read the operating manuals of
the logged-on DuoFern devices.
Menu selection and configuring set limits
The buttons on the device can be used to select the menus
of the above functions and to configure the set limits for
the functions.
Manual operation (UP/STOP and DOWN/STOP)
The two operating buttons on the side of the housing can
be used for the manual operation of logged-on DuoFern
devices.
Detection of the installation position (horizontal/
vertical) and automatic assignment of the operating
buttons
The respective installation position (horizontal or vertical)
is detected by the DuoFern Sun Sensor and the operating
buttons or the LED scale are assigned according to the
position (horizontal or vertical).
i
Radio systems that transmit on the same
frequency can cause interference.
3. Intended use
Use the DuoFern Sun Sensor solely for the control of
DuoFern devices as well as for detecting vibrations (e.g.
glass breakage).
◆ Only install and use the DuoFern Sun Sensor in dry
internal rooms.
◆ Using the DuoFern Sun Sensor for any other purpose
than previously mentioned is not permissible.

1.
Secure the DuoFern Sun Sensor as far down window
pane as possible using the suction cup.
◆ Make sure that the fixing point on the window is
as free as possible of grease and dust to ensure
the sensor sticks well.
◆ Determine a position so that the sunlight can
fall onto the sensor with as little impediment
as possible.
i
The DuoFern Sun Sensor must not be
shaded at any point.
Shade must not be cast over the DuoFern Sun
Sensor either by the roller shutter moving
into the sunshine position or by trees or
similar.

2.
A short hardware test is then performed.
All LEDs light up once and the sensors (vibration
sensor) are subjected to a self-test. If all the test
steps are completed successfully, the sensor switches
to operating mode.

7. Settings
By pressing the menu button several times,
you can open the sun sensor menus one after
the other and also exit them again.
The multi-coloured menu LED indicates which
menu is open.
Yellow = "Sun function" menu
Red = "Vibration function" menu
Blue = Menu for "Logging DuoFern devices on/off"
Off = No menu is open (normal mode)
You can use the "UP/DOWN” or
"+ /–” buttons to make the desired settings,
