Setup

1. Battery Installation

The Smoove Origin Io uses one CR 2430, 3V battery. To install or replace the battery, carefully open the device's casing. Insert the battery, ensuring correct polarity. The battery indicator light will confirm power.

2. Mounting the Transmitter

1. Attach the wall support to your desired location using two screws (not supplied). Ensure the mounting surface is flat and stable.
2. Clip the Smoove Origin Io module into its frame.
3. Clip the assembled module and frame onto the wall support.

3. Pairing with Io Equipment

To control your Somfy Io equipment, the Smoove Origin Io transmitter must be paired. Refer to the specific instructions provided with your Somfy Io motor or receiver for the pairing procedure. Typically, this involves pressing a programming button on the motor/receiver and then a button on the Smoove Origin Io transmitter to establish communication.

Operating Instructions

The Smoove Origin Io offers simple control:

• Up Arrow Button: Press to raise or open your connected Io equipment (e.g., blinds, shutters).
• Down Arrow Button: Press to lower or close your connected Io equipment.
• 'my' Button: This button serves two functions:
  • Stop: During movement, press 'my' to stop the equipment at its current position.
  • Favorite Position: A short press on 'my' will move the equipment to a pre-programmed favorite intermediate position. To set a favorite position, move the equipment to the desired position, then press and hold the 'my' button until the equipment jogs slightly.
• Battery Indicator: A small LED light on the transmitter indicates the battery status. If the light flashes or does not illuminate, the battery may need replacement.
