Bright light can interfere with the infrared eye s reception of the remote control signal. Installing s The supplied hex head screws are suitable for wood or sheet metal mounting surfaces. Wall anchors or plugs are recommended for plaster, drywall, concrete, brick, or tile. Spacer blocks may require longer screws than those supplied. It is very important that the headrail be mounted level for proper shade operation. Use a carpenter s level to check that the mounting surface is level on an inside mount, and that the tops of the installation brackets are level on an outside mount. If brackets are out of alignment because the window opening is not level, washers or small shims may be used to correct this. Note: Mounting brackets must be level and aligned. Installing AAA Battery Wand Install the AAA battery wand into the headrail by lifting the headrail cover until it locks. Place the end of the wand, with the removable end cap, into the spring clip. The arrow on the label s Required The appropriate number of installation brackets are included for the shade width. Refer to the chart for the correct number. If ordered, spacer blocks, used for additional clearance, are included with the installation brackets. Width Required s 19 to 31 2 31 1 /8 to 79 3 79 1 /8 to 127 4 127 1 /8 to 144 5

Spacing spacing is the same for all mounting styles inside mounts, outside mounts, and ceiling mounts. Mark the position for the two end brackets so that their outside edges are 4 from the ends of the headrail. If more than two brackets are required, the additional brackets are spaced evenly between the end brackets. Caution: You will not be able to remove the shade if the brackets are mounted less than 4 from the ends of the headrail. Space Evenly Space Evenly Spacer Blocks Use spacer blocks with outside mount applications only, to project the installation bracket away from the mounting surface for additional shade clearance. Each spacer block adds an additional 1 1 / 2 clearance. A maximum of three blocks may be used to gain a total of 4 1 / 2. Mount spacer blocks with the solid sides facing the mounting surface. Mounting screws must be long enough for a secure SPACER BLOCKS Attach the brackets with the screws provided, using the screw holes in the top (for inside and ceiling mounts) or the screw holes in the back (for outside mounts). Mounting & Height Requirements The following chart indicates the minimum dimensions required to mount shades. These measurements are also incorporated in the illustrations showing each type of mounting situation. Pleat Size 1 Inside or Ceiling Mount Installation brackets are attached to the soffit inside the window casing at the marked positions. attachment requires a minimum depth of 5 / 8. To fully recess the shade, the window casing must be at least 2 deep.

Point the remote control at the infrared eye located on either the headrail or the satellite eye and press the DOWN button to lower the shade. Press the UP button to raise the shade. To stop the shade before it is fully lowered, press the DOWN button a second time. To stop the shade before it is fully raised, press the UP button a second time. Note: Refer to the illustrations below for tips on aiming the remote control. Channel Selector Up Down Channel Selector Indicator Light The channel selector is located on the motor board next to the limit assembly plug. The right switch controls the channel operation and the left switch controls the shade operation. Using a small, flat blade screwdriver, flip the right channel selector switch toward the front of the shade for Channel 1 operation and toward the back of the shade for Channel 2 operation. Caution: Leave the left side switch in the back position. Memory Stop The Memory Stop feature allows the shade to be set so that it can be raised to the same height every time. To set the Memory Stop: With the shade fully lowered, press the UP button to raise the shade. When the shade reaches the desired height, stop its motion by firmly grasping the bottom rail with both hands, keeping the rail level. The motor will hesitate for a moment, then shut off.

Default Position For PowerRise (Standard) LIMIT BAT PWR Channel 1 Position (Standard) Channel Selection When two or more shades are ordered, two channel operation may be desired (this is specified at the time of the order). Normally, channel 1 is the only channel needed. However, there may be special circumstances with adjacent or stacked shades where channel 2 operation is desired for independent control of each shade. Some shades can be set to respond only to the channel 1 signal from the remote control and others can be set to respond only to channel 2. If the order includes shades set for channel 2 operation, as well as shades set for standard channel 1 operation, the channel selector located at the top of the remote control must be switched back and forth between 1 and 2 depending on the shades to be activated. s operated with channel 2 are marked on the motor housing cover, visible after lifting the cover rail.

Satellite Eye (optional) If the infrared eye on the cover rail is covered by a top treatment or cornice, a satellite eye is required to receive the signal from the remote control. Choose a location for the satellite eye. Be sure the signal from the remote control is not obstructed. When mounting the satellite eye, it is important that the placement of the wiring allows for free movement of the headrail cover. Do not mount the satellite eye INSIDE MOUNT near focused light sources such as (1) direct sunlight, (2) halogen light fixtures, or (3) a directly focused track light or spotlight. The satellite eye mounts to the wall with the cover sloping downwards. INSIDE OR OUTSIDE MOUNT After installation, do not try to insert any excess cabling back into the headrail. This will interfere with the operation of the shade. Inside Mounts. Options for the placement of the wire will depend upon specific mounting situations.
