1 Installation warnings
• This handbook contains important safety instructions concerning installation procedures. Warning: incorrect installation can result in serious injuries;
it is essential to comply fully with all the following installation instructions.
• Kits with RME series tubular motors are designed for the automation of rolling systems such as roller shutters, awnings, and solar screens; all alter-
native uses are considered to be improper and are consequently prohibited. Mhouse shall not be held liable for damage resulting from improper use
of the product other than the use specified in this manual.
• Before starting the installation process check whether the tubular motor and accessories are suitable for the application, paying particular attention
to the data given in the "Technical Specifications" chapter. When choosing the type of motor in relation to the application, consider the nominal torque
and operating time given in the rating data. The motors are designed for use in residential applications with a 20% duty cycle; this means, for exam-
ple, that a 1 minute operating cycle must be followed by a minimum pause of 5 minutes. The maximum continuous operating time is 4 minutes.
• The minimum diameter of the tube in which the motor can be accommodated is 52 mm.
• Installation work must be executed in full compliance with applicable safety regulations. Before installing the product remove all electrical cables
except those that are required for the system; all mechanisms not specifically required for motorized operation of the system must be deactivated.
• The minimum installation height is 2.5 m; ready access to the automation must be assured at all times. In the case of awnings, the horizontal dis-
tance between the fully open awning and any immoveable obstructions must be at least 0.4 m.
• The power cable with PVC insulation supplied with the RME unit is suitable for indoor installation; for exterior use the entire length of the cable must
be protected by routing it through an insulating conduit.
• At the time of installation and when using the system ensure the tubular motor is not subjected to crushing, impact, dropping or contact with any
type of liquid. Do not pierce or fix screws at any point of the length of the tubular motor. Do not install the motor close to intensive heat sources or
expose it to naked flames. Any of the foregoing situations can result in serious damage to the tubular motor and give rise to operating faults and/or
potentially hazardous conditions. If any of the above situations occurs, stop using the system immediately and contact the Mhouse service organi-
sation.
• All installation and maintenance operations must be performed with the system disconnected from the power supply; if the disconnection device is
not clearly visible from the place of work, affix a notice to the effect: "WARNING: MAINTENANCE WORK IN PROGRESS".
• Installation and electrical hook-up operations must be performed by a licensed electrician in full compliance with safety regulations.
• The packing materials must be disposed of in compliance with local regulations.
2 Product description and intended use
In 15, 30 or 45Nm torque versions "RME" series tubular motors (figure 1)
with Ø 45 mm tube are electric motors equipped with reduction gear unit
designed for use in the automation of rolling systems such as: roller shut-
ters, awnings, and solar screens.
The tubular motor complete with the specific adapters is installed by
inserting it inside the system's roller tube; in this position the motor can
drive the system by causing the tube to rotate in either direction.
RME tubular motors contain an electronic controller with a high-precision
electronic stroke limiting system able to monitor the position of the shut-
ter, awning or solar screen continuously. The stroke limits of the system,
i.e. the positions with the fixture completely closed and fixture complete-
ly opened, plus an optional intermediate position, are stored in an inter-
nal memory by means of a programming procedure. Once the system
has been programmed, each command relayed via the transmitter will
cause the motor to start a cycle and stop automatically when the preset
position has been reached. While the motor is running the controller mon-
itors torque conditions constantly and interrupts the movement immedi-
ately if it detects sudden changes in torque such as would result if the
shutter or awning encounters an obstacle.
RME tubular motors contain a radio receiver operating at 433.92MHz.
The radio system utilizes rolling code technology that makes it possible
to control the motor from a remote location while ensuring the maximum
levels of security.

Up to a maximum of 30 transmitters can be stored for the control of each
motor. Kits with RME tubular motors are available in versions with a TX3
transmitter supplied as standard (RME) or without the transmitter (RME
Start); in this second case you will need to purchase at least one Mhouse
transmitter type TX3 (figure 2) or TX4 (figure 2).
TX3
The TX3 transmitter has a support in order that it can be mounted, to a
wall for example. Adhesive tape can be used if the surface is smooth and
solid, otherwise the special screw and screw anchor supplied
RME is supplied complete with a support, code AR1, and an adapter,
code AR4, suitable for use with 60 mm diameter octagonal tubes (the
type of tube commonly utilized by rolling shutter manufacturers). Alterna-
tively, order kits with support AR2 and adapters AR3 and AR5 for cigar-
shaped tubes, diameter 78 and 70 mm respectively (these tubes are
commonly utilized by awning manufacturers).
