5. Setup

5.1 Tube Compatibility and Motor Installation

1. Identify the inner diameter of your roller blind tube (17mm, 25mm, or 28mm).
2. Select the corresponding crown and drive set from the package.
3. If your tube is 25mm or 28mm, replace the default 17mm tail plug with the appropriate one as shown in the diagram above.
4. Insert the motor into the roller blind tube, ensuring it fits snugly and the crown engages with the tube's inner grooves.
5. Mount the roller blind assembly with the motor into your window frame using the provided installation brackets.

5.2 Charging the Motor

The motor has a built-in 800mAh Li-battery. Before first use, fully charge the motor.

• Connect the provided USB Type-C charging cable to the motor's charging port.
• Connect the other end of the cable to a standard USB power adapter (not included).
• A full charge typically takes several hours. The indicator light on the motor will change to indicate charging status (refer to specific light behavior in the full manual if available).
• Optional: The motor supports solar panel charging. Connect a compatible solar panel to the motor's charging port for continuous power.

5.3 Connecting to a Zigbee Hub and App Pairing

A Tuya Zigbee Gateway (hub) is required for smart control via the Tuya Smart or Smart Life APP, and for voice control via Echo or Google Home. For HomeKit integration, a zemismart ZMHK01 Hub or Matter M1/M6 Hub is needed.

1. Ensure your Zigbee hub is powered on and connected to your home network.
2. Open the Tuya Smart or Smart Life APP on your smartphone.
3. In the app, initiate the device pairing process (usually by tapping 'Add Device' or the '+' icon).
4. On the motor, press the setting button (Motor set key) for 3 seconds until the motor makes a sound (e.g., "Di" once) indicating it's in pairing mode.
5. The app should discover the motor. Follow the on-screen prompts to add the device.
6. Once paired, you can control the motor via the app and set upper and lower limits for the blind's travel.
