Problem
The motor will not operate, or will operate for 10–12 inches and then stop.
Solution
The motor is not receiving enough amps (i.e., the inverter output is low). Check that a minimum of
10 amps is running. If not, turn on the generator or go to shore power.
Problem
The fabric is loose when the awning is fully extended (i.e., the roller keeps turning after the awning
arms have locked open).
Solution
The motor’s OUT limits must be reset to ensure that the motor stops when the arms are fully
extended and locked. See “Adjusting Motor Limit Switches.”
Problem
The box does not close completely (i.e., the motor stops before the lead rail has closed completely
into the awning casing on either end), and there is no apparent binding of the awning components.
Solution
The awning is equipped with a DMI (manual override) motor which also has manual limit settings.
The IN limit may need to be adjusted to allow the box to close tighter. See “Adjusting Motor Limit
Switches.”
Problem
As the awning is closing, the elbow of one or more arms is hanging down, preventing the case from
closing.
Solution
Open the awning about eighteen inches (18"). At the problem arm(s), loosen the two (2) large lock
