Serena Roman Shade Fabrication Kit
The Lutron Triathlon / Serena Roman Shade Fabrication Kit is a battery-powered, versatile motorization solution for custom-fabricated Roman shades. This motorization solution works with most Roman shade constructions and materials, controls the movement of the shade, keeps track of the shade's position, and adjusts the shade to the user's desired preset positions while moving smoothly.
Features
· Support for most Roman shade styles and lift mechanisms · Lift rings are designed to attach lift cords / tapes to the tube
(lift mechanism not provided by Lutron). * · Supports single shades in:
­ Widths from 20 in (508 mm) to 109.5 in (2.78 m) ­ Heights from 12 in (304.8 mm) to 120 in (3.05 m) ­ Maximum lift capacity: 11.7 lb (5.3 kg)** · Industry-leading battery performance (battery life details are available in the shade ordering tool) · The Electronic Drive Unit (EDU) maintains consistent shade speed throughout the battery life cycle by dynamically monitoring battery voltage output · Integrated wireless control using Clear Connect Type A RF technology · Wireless control range: 30 ft (9 m) · Operating voltage: 6.0 ­ 12.0 V· Shades can be grouped to move together in unison · Sound: 38 dBA measured 3 ft (0.91 m) from the EDU

Window shades and blinds are subject to industry standards and government regulations intended to enhance safety and to protect children against risk of strangulation from entanglement in cords or bands. Among other things, these standards and regulations govern the treatment of accessible cords or bands, warning labels and hang tags, and the spacing of pleats in finished shades and blinds.
You are responsible for ensuring that your finished window shades or blinds meet all applicable standards and regulations.

IMPORTANT: Use lift rings for shades up to 80 in (2032 mm) wide. For shades wider than 80 in (2032 mm), use Roman Shade C-Clips from others that are compatible with 1.5 in (38 mm) shade tubes, or other appropriate lift mechanism attachments.

From the front of a Lift Ring, feed the end of a Lift Cord through one of the round holes in the ring, as shown:

From the back of the Lift Ring, tie a knot in the free end of the Lift Cord (a `figure-8' knot is recommended).
Back of Lift Ring

Pull the excess Lift Cord back through the hole in the Lift Ring. Slip the cord into the V-notch on one side of the hole as shown:

Round Holes

Figure-8 knot (recommended)

Front of Lift Ring

Pull the knot tight, leaving at least 1/2 in (13 mm) at the free end of the lift cord.
Min. 1/2 in (13 mm)

Tuck the knot into the back of the ring against the notch to secure the cord.

Lift Ring Installation
Install Lift Rings on the tube to coincide with the number and spacing of lift cords on the fabric panel.

Lift Rings are made of a flexible material that allows them to be twisted open:

Twist the ends apart in opposite directions. Slip one end over the tube, and the other end under the tube, then allow the ring to un-twist and wrap around the tube.

Slide the Lift Ring along the tube, aligning it with a lift cord position.

Spring-Balancing the Shade: Determining the Number of Spring Modules
The kit assembly ships from the factory with one (1) spring module pre-installed along with individual spring modules to be added (if configured).
Use the tables below to determine the TOTAL number of modules required to properly balance the shade based on shade width, height, and fabric used. Add spring modules accordingly prior to testing the shade. Spring modules may need to be added or removed based on the actual weights of the fabric panel built.

Step 1: Determine the total shade panel weight. Total shade panel weight is the sum of weights of the fabric and lining used for the shade.
Step 2: Determine the total springs needed based on the width/height of the shade. Round down to the nearest foot.
Step 3: Add spring modules (as needed) and run spring balance validation test. Refer to the SPRING-BALANCING THE SHADE section.

4. Slide the spring module along the housing toward the previouslyinstalled module until it interlocks with the previously-installed module with a `CLICK'. (The locking pin handle may be rotated slightly to help align the interlocking parts.)

5. Holding the newly-installed spring module in place, rotate the locking pin handle and pull the locking pin up and out of the housing.
Repeat steps 3, 4, and 5 to install each additional spring module, as needed.

6. Slide the spring retention plate back along the housing until it touches the last spring module. Re-tighten the two (2) spring retention plate securing screws.

Spring-Balancing the Shade: Prepare to Test Spring Balance

Hang the Shade
Using appropriate mounting methods as applicable, hang the shade in a test location with ample space for the fabric to be fully raised and lowered without obstruction. Or, at the installation site, hang the shade in the window for which it is intended. In either case, verify the shade is securely mounted using brackets and/or fasteners capable of supporting the operating load. At this time, the fabric should be in the fully-lowered position, with all slack removed from the lift cords, and the kit housing cover open.

Remove the System Lock
At the end of the shade where the spring modules are installed, the system lock is located against the inside surface of the kit housing endcap. There is a flag attached to the locking clip to indicate its presence and location.

Spring Modules System Lock Flag

Refer to the diagrams on the system lock flag to remove the locking clip from the shade.
Additional system locks can be ordered in the event any have been lost or damaged.

Pull the system locking clip away from the endcap and off its stop.

Rotate the clip away from the stop as shown.

Pull the clip away from the shade.

IMPORTANT: The system lock flag should be kept on the clip, and the lock should be reinstalled any time the shade will be adjusted, uninstalled, transported, or stored. Reinstalling the system lock is the reverse of removal.

Locate the Shade Button
At the end of the shade opposite the spring modules There is a shade button access opening in the part of the end bracket that surrounds the shade tube. You may use a small screwdriver or stylus to tap or press the shade button when instructed. The shade button is equipped with an LED that provides feedback during shade programming, testing, and operation.
