Operating Principle

The FTS canopy blind system consists of a drive mechanism, fabric, and controller. The drive mechanism includes two identical FTS-specific tubular motors, each equipped with an electronic brake that can be adjusted via an external dedicated controller. The two tubular motors of the system are installed in two reels, with one end of the fabric fixed to one reel. The fabric at the other end is wound onto the reel of the other reel. These two motors operate in coordination through a dedicated controller, with one motor providing the power for fabric movement and the other motor's brake working simultaneously to provide resistance, preventing the fabric from falling off the reel. After the canopy is fully open, the fabric will be rolled onto one of the reels. The FTS system ensures that tension is provided to the fabric during operation or when stopped, and the FTS system operates in a single-open mode.

Key Components

Cautionary Notes
The FTS system must be installed on a sturdy wall or other solid structure capable of withstanding the system's tension.
2. The lanyard must be sufficiently strong to withstand system tension.
3. The diameter of the rope reel must be smaller than that of the fabric reel.
4. When the width of the FTS system exceeds 3 meters, it is recommended to use a middle support.
5. When the FTS system is installed outdoors, adequate waterproofing measures must be taken to protect the motor.
6. Two FTS motors from the same system must be installed in balance.
