The casing shows a wiring diagram indicating connections for 'Cde' (control), 'BP' (push button), 'L' (Live 230V 50Hz), 'N' (Neutral), and 'MOTEUR' (Motor) with 'F' (Forward) and 'O' (Open/Up) terminals, rated for a maximum of 500VA. The brand 'Yokis' and model 'MVR500E' along with the part number '5454090' are clearly visible, indicating it is 'Made in France' with a power consumption of less than 1VA and CE certification.
The Yokis MVR500E is a micro-module designed for controlling roller shutters. It allows for precise control of shutter movement, integrating into standard electrical installations. Its compact size facilitates discreet installation behind existing switches or within junction boxes.
Setup and Installation
Before you begin: Ensure the main power supply to the circuit is disconnected at the circuit breaker to prevent electrical shock.
- Prepare Wiring: Identify the Live (L), Neutral (N), and motor control wires (Up/Down) for your roller shutter. Also, identify the wires for the control button (BP) if using a local switch.
- Connect Power Supply:
- Connect the Live (L) wire (230V, 50Hz) to the terminal marked 'L' on the module.
- Connect the Neutral (N) wire to the terminal marked 'N' on the module.
- Connect Motor:
- Connect the motor's 'Up' or 'Open' wire to the terminal marked 'F' (Forward/Up) on the module.
- Connect the motor's 'Down' or 'Close' wire to the terminal marked 'O' (Open/Down) on the module.
- Ensure the motor's maximum power consumption does not exceed 500VA.
- Connect Control Button (Optional): If using a local push-button switch, connect the control wire from the switch to the terminal marked 'BP' (Push Button) and the common wire to 'Cde' (Control) on the module. Refer to the module's wiring diagram for precise connections.
- Secure Installation: Place the micro-module securely within the electrical box or behind the switch, ensuring no wires are pinched or exposed.
- Restore Power: Once all connections are secure and verified, restore power at the main circuit breaker.
- Initial Test: Test the functionality of the roller shutter using the connected control mechanism.
Operating Instructions
The Yokis MVR500E module operates by receiving signals from a connected control device, such as a push-button switch or a compatible Yokis transmitter.
- Manual Control: Pressing the connected push-button switch will typically initiate the shutter movement. A short press usually starts or stops the movement. A longer press might initiate a full open or close cycle, depending on the programming.
- Stopping Movement: During shutter movement, a brief press of the control button will stop the shutter at its current position.
- Direction Change: If the shutter is moving in one direction, pressing the button again will stop it. A subsequent press will typically initiate movement in the opposite direction.
- Programming (if applicable): For advanced features or pairing with wireless transmitters, refer to the specific programming instructions provided with your Yokis control system. This module is designed to be part of a larger Yokis ecosystem.
Maintenance
The Yokis MVR500E micro-module is designed for maintenance-free operation. However, periodic checks are recommended:
- Visual Inspection: Periodically inspect the module and its wiring for any signs of damage, wear, or loose connections. Ensure the module is free from dust and moisture.
- Cleaning: If cleaning is necessary, disconnect power and use a dry, soft cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
- Professional Check: For any concerns regarding electrical connections or module performance, consult a qualified electrician.
