The calibration reset is used to recalibrate the blind's travel limits. This action is performed in 
the PowerView

® 

App.

 

Select Calibrate Shades in the Advanced Options section of the Shade Settings menu in 
the PowerView App.

 

The slats will tilt to their end limits, then finish in the closed position. When the slats 
stop moving, the calibration is complete.

Resetting Blind Programming

The PowerView App may be used to modify or reset any blind programming to PowerView 
Gen 3 remotes, gateways, and scene controllers. Blinds may be added to or removed from 
Rooms and Scenes in the app at any time. If necessary, blindsmay also be deleted from the 
PowerView App in the Advanced Options section of the Shade Settings menu.

Electronic Limit Adjustments

Electronic limits are set at the factory and normally do not require readjustment. For window 
treatments that may need additional adjustment or to set custom limit positions, go to Shade 
Settings in the PowerView App to adjust limits.
