# Set up the Transceiver
Initially, ESPSomfyRTS will start with the transceiver disabled. You will need to ensure the pin mappings match the wiring that you used when initially building your device. To set up and configure your transceiver navigate to the transceiver configuration screen. From the gears menu click the `Somfy` tab then click the `Configure Transceiver` button. A screen will appear with the transceiver options.

First you need to select the protocol and radio type. If you do not know what type of motor radio you have it is likely an RTS protocol with a 56-BIT motor. ESPSomfy-RTS supports the RTW or the RTS protocol. If your remote is a Telis RTS, Chronis RTS, Situo RTS, or a Smoove RTS then you for sure have an RTS motor. However, if your documentation mentions RTW or you have an ASA motor then select the RTW protocol. The protocol and the radio type that you set here will be the values that are used as the default when you create a new shade. You will have the opportunity to set these for each individual motor later.

You can view all incoming frames from your remotes with the `Logs` button. This will display the frames with the most recently received frame at the topmost position. Pressing the `Copy` button will copy the current command list into your clipboard. If you are submitting an issue that ESPSomfy RTS doesn't recognize a particular command this will help with debugging and allow me to provide further assistance.

## Tune your Transceiver
The default tuning parameters are most likely not the best settings for your transceiver. To start, first select the RX Bandwidth to 96.96kHz and the Frequency Deviation to 11.43kHz. You can use the arrows on your keyboard to fine tune the value. Then press the `Save Radio` button. Next, using a remote from about 3 feet away press one of the buttons. ESPSomfy RTS should pick up the signal and provide an RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) value. This number is a measurement of how strong the signal is. The closer this value gets to 0 indicates a stronger received signal.

Awnings add support for Sun/Wind sensors that retract the awning whenever the sun goes away or the wind may damage your precious butterfly wing attached to the house. Selecting Awning as the motor type will add these options to the interface and integrations. For the sensor to work properly you will need to link it to the motor using the link remote function. After all this sensor operates as if it were a remote.
