2. Product Variants

The Dooya DM45 series tubular motors come in two main variants:

  • DM45RQ 6/28 (Radio Tubular Motor):
    This model features a built-in RF433 receiver and uses a 3-wire connection. It is compatible with Dooya RF433 remote controllers (e.g., DC2700, DC1650) and RF433 wall switches.
  • DM45Q 6/28 (Quiet Tubular Motor):
    This is a 4-wire motor without a built-in RF433 module. It is designed to work with wired wall switches such as DC227A, DC228A, and Tuya WiFi curtain wall switches. It can also be controlled via a remote controller if paired with an external receiver.

3. Package Contents

Your package should contain the following items:

  • 1 x Tubular Motor (DM45RQ 6/28 or DM45Q 6/28, based on your selection)
  • 1 x Crown
  • 1 x Drive Adapter

Note: The specific crown and drive adapter provided will be selected based on the type of rolling tube you intend to use with the motor.

4. Accessories and Tube Compatibility

Proper selection of the crown and drive adapter is crucial for correct motor function with your rolling tube. Different tube types have varying inner structures, even if their outer diameter is the same.

4.1. Important Considerations for Crown and Drive Adapters

  • For rolling tubes with the same outer diameter, there are many different inner structures across various regions. We provide crowns and drive adapters from Dooya's original package for specific tube types. Please verify compatibility before installation.
  • In some cases, you may need to modify the provided crown and drive adapter to ensure they work correctly with your specific tube.
  • Some users successfully create custom crowns and drive adapters using 3D printing.
  • Alternatively, you may need to source compatible crowns and drive adapters from your local market.
  • If your existing crown and drive adapter are still functional and compatible, reusing them is often the best option.

4.2. Compatible Tube Types and Accessories

The DM45 tubular motor is compatible with various tube types. Below are examples of crowns and drive adapters for common tube sizes:

  • Avoid striking the motor with hard objects.
Attention: Do not immerse motor in water, strike with hammer, or drill into casing.
Attention: Do not immerse motor in water, strike with hammer, or drill into casing.

6.2. Crown and Drive Adapter Installation

Install the crown and drive adapter onto the motor shaft as shown in the diagram. Ensure they are securely fitted. Forbidden to drill through crown and inner gear wheel.

Installation steps for Crown and Drive Adapter.
Step 1: Crown Installation - Slide the crown onto the motor shaft. Step 2: Drive Adapter Installation - Slide the drive adapter onto the motor shaft. Use rivet or screw to install drive adapter.

6.3. Bracket Installation

Mount the motor using the appropriate brackets for your installation type (A or B). Ensure the brackets are firmly secured to the mounting surface.

Bracket installation methods (A and B).
Bracket Installation A: For standard mounting. Bracket Installation B: For recessed or specific frame mounting.

6.4. Circuit Installation (Wiring)

Connect the motor to the AC power supply according to the wiring diagrams below. Ensure all connections are secure and match the voltage and frequency specified on the product nameplate (230V/50Hz or 120V/60Hz).

Built-in Motor: Directly connected to the power. Built-in receiver allows direct control by wireless switch (e.g., DC863) or wireless remote controller (e.g., DC305). This is suitable for installations without switch wiring or in small spaces.

6.5. Programming the First Transmitter (DM45RQ only)

The DM45RQ motor requires programming with a transmitter (remote control) to function wirelessly. There are two methods:

Instructions for programming the first transmitter for DM45RQ, showing two methods.
Programming the First Transmitter:
Method 1 (Up Limit Control): Switch off power for >10s, then switch on for <4s. Press the P2 button on the transmitter twice (motor beeps twice). Press the UP button (motor beeps several times). OK, Up limit control is set.
Method 2 (Down Limit Control): Switch off power for >10s, then switch on for <4s. Press the P2 button on the transmitter twice (motor beeps twice). Press the DOWN button (motor beeps several times). OK, Down limit control is set.
Note: The interval of re-switch must be within 4 seconds of re-setting, otherwise the system will restore the original state. Deleting all data of the motor and programming a new emitter will restore the original state.

6.6. Limit Setting (Up and Down)

Set the upper and lower travel limits for your blinds or canopy using the special regulator on the motor head and your emitter/switch.

Instructions for setting the upper limit of the motor.
Up Limit Setting: Switch on. Press the UP button of the emitter or switch once. Use the special regulator to adjust the '+' direction, rotating the white worm to increase the up distance. When the up limit distance is achieved, stop rotating the white worm and press the STOP button. Up limit setting is OK. Warning: When motor stops, do not rotate the white limit hole!
Instructions for setting the lower limit of the motor.
Down Limit Setting: Switch on. Press the DOWN button of the emitter or switch once. Use the special regulator to adjust the '+' direction, rotating the red worm to increase the down distance. When the down limit distance is achieved, stop rotating the red worm and press the STOP button. Down limit setting is OK. Warning: Please do not use the regulator to adjust the red and white limit screw when the tubular motor stops.

6.7. Additional Functions

6.7.1. Dot-move Setting

Instructions for dot-move setting.
Dot-move Setting: Switch on. Press the setting button once (motor beeps once). Press the UP button several times (motor beeps several times). Press the setting button once (motor beeps several times). OK, dot-move setting is complete. Note: Repeat setting to cancel the function.

6.7.2. Add Emitter

Instructions for adding an emitter (remote control).
Add Emitter: Switch on. Press the 'b' emitter's setting button twice. The motor will beep twice. Continue to press the 'a' emitter's setting button. OK, emitter adding is complete.

6.7.3. Cancel Emitter

Instructions for canceling an emitter (remote control).
Cancel Emitter: Switch on. Press the setting button once (motor beeps once). Press the STOP button (motor beeps once). Press the setting button several times. OK, emitter cancellation is complete. Note: Canceling an emitter removes all emitters from the motor's memory.

7. Operation

Once installed and configured, operate your Dooya tubular motor using the paired remote control or wall switch.

  • DM45RQ: Use the RF433 remote controller or wall switch to send commands (Up, Down, Stop).
  • DM45Q: Use the wired wall switch (e.g., DC227A, DC228A) or a compatible Tuya WiFi curtain wall switch. If an external receiver is installed, it can also be controlled by a remote.
