Note: It is recommended to measure the time of full opening and full closing of the curtains separately with a stopwatch. If these intervals are different (this is typical for roller shutter drives), add 1-2 seconds to the larger value and specify the value in the settings field in seconds. The time of rotation of the slats must be specified as accurately as possible.

Important! These settings can only be changed in one of the end positions. Do not change the advanced settings while the blinds are moving and they are not fully opened or closed.
