Sentry II® WLS Motor System*
Introducing Truth's next generation of power window systems. Sentry II WLS for windows and Light Skylights. Based on the powerful and reliable mechanics from their previous motorization system, they've added a new digital electronics package with built in power conversion. This New Sentry II WLS system truly takes over where Truth's Sentry 2000 left off.
This System Sentry II WLS is for cover size: 1-63/64” x 9-7/8”
A sleek design and quiet motor are engineered into this exciting digitally motorized system. The Sentry II® WLS (window & light skylights) system retrofits casement or awning windows formerly operated by Truth hand cranks. A power conversion accepts direct connection of line voltages. Power protected memory eliminates the need to reset the motor after a power outage. The Sentry II® WLS System has a rain sensor which automatically closes the window at the first sign of moisture. Building automation systems can be easily connected.

The new electronic package provides many new features to enhance a home's comfort and its owners peace of mind.
Retrofits onto casements and awnings windows and skylights operated with a hand crank manufactured by Truth Hardware. This moto system drives the same impute the handed is attached to.
Power Conversion built right into the wall mounted control package which accepts direct connection of line voltages from 100 to 240 VAC at 27 to 440 Hz. No more transformers to complicate and add expense to the installation.
Power Blind System Compatible. Centralized power window system control is now possible with Sentry II's ability to accept and control most 24 VDC Power blind systems.
Power Protected Memory eliminates the need to " reset" or retrain the moto after a power outage. Once the installation is complete the motor never needs further service or adjustment's- even after prolonged power outages!
RF Remote Compatibility built into all moto control packages as a standard feature. Simply order the option remote to add new and exciting control capability for the homeowner. (to order remote see part number )
Rain Sensor is standard with all kits, automatically closes the window or skylight at the first sign of moisture. Corrosion resistant sensor decreases maintenance cleaning requirements and extends service life.

ETL Listed and CE Approved. Meets all requirements for Class II installations.
Safety- Automatic motor reversal has been engineered into the system which is intended to reverse the motor should an obscuration stop the window while closing. In addition, a screen interlock is provided which, when properly installed, electrically disconnects the motor when the screen is removed. These features are intended to help prevent personal injury which could result from reaching into the window area during its operation.
Motorized Sash Locks are available for use with the WLS system for casement and awning windows. (to order motorized sash lock kit see part number)
Building Automation Systems can easily be tied into the control electronic for virtually limitless ventilation possibilities.

Part Number: 137 Encore Folding Handle and Cover Kit
Manufacture Tech Note: Proper Installation of an Operator Cover & Nested Folding Handle. When installing the cover and handle on the operator you should follow theseinstructions:• Snap the cover onto the operator base.• Place the handle onto the spline of the operator and rotate the handle to closethe window.• Lock the window in place.• Rotate the handle ¼ turn back (towards opening direction) to reduce thepressure on the operator.• If the handle needs to be positioned in a nested cover you can remove thehandle at this time and re-position it so that it will rest correctly in the nestedcover.• Tighten the set screw on the handle.• Unlock the window and cycle the sash open and closed until the handle returnsto the starting position whereby there is no additional torque required to close the sash. Note: the sash should travel to a point that the lock can easily engageand seal the window.• If the window does not come all the way into the closed position, and more forceis required on the operator to close the window, you will need to review thewindow for the following; sash sag; racked window; lock points that are notproperly aligned; or hinges not installed correctly. These issues should becorrected prior to repeating the installation of the handle onto the operatorspline.Placing the operator and the handle under high stress and abusive loads can causepermanent failures to the handle or operator as the window is repeatedly opened andclosed.
