The Hunter Douglas M25S 24V motor is designed for Duette®/Pleated Roof Blinds (PE models), offering a quick programming instruction for setting its operational limits and performing a factory reset. This device is a component of a motorized window covering system, providing automated control over the blind's movement.

Function Description:

The primary function of the M25S 24V motor is to provide motorized operation for Duette®/Pleated Roof Blinds. It allows users to set precise top and bottom limits for the blind's movement, ensuring consistent and controlled operation. The motor is integrated into the blind system, receiving commands from a programming device to adjust its travel range. The programming process involves connecting the motor to a specialized programming tool, which facilitates the setting of these limits and other operational parameters. Once programmed, the motor will move the blind between the defined top and bottom positions. The system also includes a specific setting for "Roofblind setting," which likely optimizes the motor's behavior for blinds installed in roof applications. Additionally, a factory reset function is available to clear all previously programmed settings, returning the motor to its default state.

Important Technical Specifications:

The motor operates on a 24V power supply, indicating it is a low-voltage DC motor, which is common for residential and light commercial applications due to safety and ease of installation. The programming instructions specify a minimum distance of 200 mm for the blind to be down before setting the top limit, which is a crucial parameter for accurate calibration. The programming tool, identified by the "Hunter Douglas" branding, features a "PROGRAMMING MODE" selector with options A, B, and OFF, corresponding to different programming steps. It also includes "MOVEMENT" buttons (I and II) to control the blind's direction during programming. The motor terminal box has clearly marked connections for "GREY MARKER" and "WHITE WIRE," indicating specific wiring requirements for proper installation and connection to the programming device. The programming instructions are provided in English Version 1.0, with a publication number 11-M-02EN-V10 and a release date of 12-02-2018, ensuring up-to-date information for users.

Usage Features:

The M25S 24V motor offers several user-friendly features through its programming interface:

• Top Limit Setting (A): This feature allows the user to define the uppermost position the blind will reach. The instruction requires the blind to be at least 200 mm down before setting this limit. The user presses and holds either button I or II on the programming tool until the blind automatically stops at the desired top position.
• Bottom Limit Setting (B): This feature enables the user to set the lowermost position for the blind. The user presses button I or II until the blind reaches the desired bottom limit.
• Roofblind Setting (X): This specialized setting is activated when the blind is in the bottom position. The user presses button I or II for one second. It is crucial to release the button after one second for this setting to be correctly applied. This suggests a specific calibration or operational mode optimized for roof-mounted blinds, which may have different gravitational forces or movement requirements compared to vertical blinds.
• Normal Operation (Off): After programming, switching the programming tool to "Off" mode allows for normal operation of the blind. In this mode, pressing and holding button I or II will move the blind until it stops at its programmed top position, indicating that the motor is ready for regular use with a control device (e.g., remote control, wall switch).
• Factory Reset (X - Hold): This feature allows the user to erase all previously programmed settings. By selecting "X" on the programming tool and then pressing and holding button I or II until the blind moves for approximately 5 seconds, all limits and settings are cleared, returning the motor to its default state. This is useful for troubleshooting or re-programming the motor from scratch. The programming process is designed to be intuitive, using a dedicated programming tool with clear mode selections and movement buttons. The visual cues in the manual, such as arrows indicating blind movement and icons for programming modes, further enhance usability.

Maintenance Features:

While the manual does not explicitly detail maintenance features for the motor itself, the programming instructions imply a level of user-serviceability for recalibration and troubleshooting. The ability to perform a factory reset is a key maintenance feature, allowing users or technicians to resolve programming issues without requiring specialized tools beyond the programming device. The modular design, with a separate motor terminal box, suggests that wiring connections can be inspected or re-established if necessary. The "Colophon" section of the manual emphasizes that the information is subject to change and that Hunter Douglas should be contacted for any questions or difficulties regarding the use and maintenance of their products. This indicates that while basic programming is user-accessible, more complex maintenance or repairs should be handled by authorized personnel or through Hunter Douglas support. The manual itself, being a "Quick Programming Instruction," focuses on initial setup and adjustment rather than long-term mechanical maintenance. The robust construction implied by the motor's integration into a roof blind system suggests a design intended for durability and minimal routine maintenance under normal operating conditions.
