🔧 Overview
If you’ve purchased a new Somfy remote or need to replace an existing one, follow the steps below to successfully pair it with your Hansø motorized awning.
🪄 Step 1: Prepare the New Remote
Ensure the new remote has a working battery installed.
Identify the Channel Selector Button and the “my” button on the remote.
⚙️ Step 2: Place the Motor in Programming Mode
Option 1: If you have a working remote
On the existing remote, press and hold the “my” button until the awning jogs (a quick in-and-out motion).
The motor is now in programming mode.
Option 2: If you do NOT have a working remote
Power cycle the motor using the following sequence:
Unplug the motor (or turn off power at the breaker) for 2 seconds.
Plug it back in for 8 seconds.
Unplug again for 2 seconds.
Plug it back in once more.
After a few seconds, the awning will jog, confirming the motor is now in programming mode.
📡 Step 3: Pair the New Remote
On the new remote, press the “my” button briefly.
The awning should jog again, confirming successful pairing.
Test the new remote using UP, DOWN, and “my” buttons.
✅ Step 4: Exit Programming Mode
Press and hold the “my” button again on the new remote until the awning jogs once more.
This confirms that the motor has exited programming mode.
⚠️ Troubleshooting
If the awning does not respond:
Repeat the steps carefully, ensuring the power cycling sequence and motor jog confirmations are correct.
Make sure the remote has a fresh battery and is within range of the awning receiver.
