User Manual for Somfy Sonesse2 40 Zigbee Motor

Quick guide from the manual

The Sonesse2 40 Zigbee motor is designed for interior vertical blinds and tiltable venetian blinds. This manual covers installation, wiring, and commissioning via the TaHoma pro application (recommended) or a manual control point. The motor supports two main solutions: TaHoma switch (connected mode) and TaHoma ready (control point only).

Installation

The motor must be installed by a home motorisation and automation professional. Ensure the tube inner diameter is greater than 37 mm. The crown is mandatory for installation. Secure the drive wheel to the winding tube using 4 self-tapping screws or pop rivets to prevent movement.

Wiring

Connection must be done in a junction box. Ensure cables passing through metal walls are protected. The motor cable is not removable. Follow the voltage-specific wiring table provided in the manual for 120V, 220V, or 230V connections.

Commissioning

Commissioning can be performed in two ways:

• TaHoma pro application: Recommended for easier setup. Requires a Somfypro account and internet access.
• Control point: Use the PROG button on the motor to enter programming mode (LED blinks orange). Use the control point to pair with the motor.

Operation

The motor supports a favourite position (my). To program it, move the blind to the desired position, stop it, and hold the 'my' button until the motor moves briefly. To use it, press the 'my' button twice in succession.

Troubleshooting

If the motor is noisy, check if the wheel and crown are adapted to the tube, or if there is debris in the tube. If the motor does not work, check the wiring, thermal protection status, or the control point battery.
