Further Operation and Programming Information

Automation App

and Android™ smartphones and tablets. For more information regarding setup and operation using the Automation App, refer to

The Automation III Gateway is used to control blinds in larger projects as well as integrate Automation III blinds with third-party 
integration systems. For information regarding programming of Automation III Gateways, refer to the digital 

Automation III

 

Gateway Guide.

Automation III Remote

For information regarding operation and programming of the Automation III remote, refer to the digital 

Automation III 

Remote 

Control Guide.

Resetting the Blind (If Necessary)

Calibration Reset

The calibration reset is used to recalibrate the slat’s travel limits.
1. Press and hold the control button for approximately 6 seconds. The blind will move slightly. Release the control button (the light 

flashes red).

2. The blind will tilt fully in one direction to set the first limit, then tilt in the opposite direction to set the second limit. The slats will 

move slightly one more time to indicate the travel limits have been reset.

Resetting Blind Programming

The Automation App may be used to modify or reset any blind programming to Automation III Remotes, and Gateways. Blinds may 
be added to or removed from Rooms in the App at any time. If necessary, blinds may also be deleted from the Automation 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 Automation App to adjust limits.
