Abstract: The method applies to a motorized screen device comprising a screen windable on a winding tube, and at least one means for latching the free end of the screen defining a position termed latched in the direction of winding, the latching being activated in this direction if the free end of the screen previously reaches at least one position of reversal, to which corresponds for the unwinding a value of angular position of the winding tube termed the position of reversal of rotation, situated beyond the latched position in the direction of unwinding of the screen. According to the method, in a mode of configuration of the latching of the screen, the installer proceeds merely to record the value of a chosen angular position, termed the recorded rotation reversal position, this position being situated at the level of or beyond the position of reversal of rotation, in the direction of unwinding of the screen.
