The Model 80 is a very compact unit. Simply remove the cord pulley from your drapery or vertical blind cord. The motor fits in the cord loop without modification. Attach to wall with included hardware. Plug-in ready to use. The Model 80 can traverse drapery and vertical blinds, or rotate vertical blinds.
TRAVERSING DRAPERY AND VERTICAL BLINDS: Attach motor to existing cord loop. If your track has "roller-carriers", motor can traverse 10-feet one-way or 15-feet center open. If your track has "sliding-carriers", motor can traverse 8-feet one-way or 12-feet center open. Motor adjustment dials permit you to set automatic stop positions: open, closed, any in-between. Maximum fabric weight 35 pounds.
ROTATING VERTICAL BLINDS: Attach motor to existing chain loop. Chain connector can pass through motor without damage. Motor adjustment dials permit you to set automatic stop positions: open, closed, any in-between. If your chain does not have an existing loop, please call us and we will explain a simply option. TRAVERSING AND ROTATE THE SAME VERTICAL BLINDS To traverse and rotate the same vertical blind requires two (2) Model 80 motors. Please note that a standard wall outlet has polarized plug receptacles and cannot accept two motors. We can furnish a UL Listed replacement outlet that can accept both motors ($21.50 additional). An alternate solution is to use your own extension cord and simply plug both motors into the cord outlets.
SECURITY FEATURE: The Model 80 has a special feature that will please you. When you travel on vacation you can plug the motor into your own lamp timer switch, x10 Appliance Module, Z-Wave Module or X10 Receptacle, . Then, your window covering will automatically open each morning and close at night for a natural look that can enhance your home security. Some customers like this feature so much that they leave the motor plugged into a timer. This adds convenience because automatic operation eliminates the daily chore of manually opening and closing the window covering. It can also dramatically reduce heating and air-conditioning bills, and prevent sun-fading of floors, carpets, furnishings
