SelectBlinds Motor&Controls for Custom Roller Shades

Wire-free Rechargeable Motor System

Installation Instructions

INSTALL THE SHADE BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE THE MOTOR.

Tools Required:

Tape measure, pencil (✏️), drill (?️), drill bits, screw driver (?), step stool or ladder.

Note: Use a 5/64" drill bit to pre-drill the screw holes (for attachment to a wall stud or header board). Use Wall Anchors (not included) for hollow dry wall or plaster mounting.

Step 1. Mount the Brackets

[Note: If your shade has a Cassette Valance (the shade is pre-mounted in a decorative aluminum cover), locate the special instructions for installing the Cassette]

Attach the brackets to the window frame, molding, or ceiling as shown. The brackets are "universal" – there are no "right" and "left" brackets. Mark the screw locations with a pencil (✏️) – pre-drill the screw holes using a 5/64" drill bit.

Step 2. Install the Shade

There are Hook Arms on both sides of the shade – these must be facing downward when the shade is attached to the brackets. Slide the shade upward into the brackets so that the hook arms go into the hook arm receiver holes on each bracket. Once the hook arms are through the holes, gently pull down until the hook arms have locked securely to each bracket.

Diagram shows the shade being lifted into the mounted brackets, with hook arms aligning with receiver holes and locking into place.

Step 3. Install the Bracket Covers

- For Outside Mount Shades Only!

Bracket covers slide onto the brackets as shown until they snap into position.

Programming and Operation of Radio Technology Motors

IMPORTANT: The Upper & Lower limit positions (full UP & DOWN positions) have been pre-set at the factory. Also, a Channel Number has been assigned to each shade. Therefore, it is not necessary to perform Steps 1, 2 & 3 below. However, it is recommended to read these to familiarize yourself with the basics of programming the motor and remote control and to fully understand the function of your motorized shade. Note that the batteries in the motor are fully charged at the factory prior to shipment.

Diagrams show the motor head with antenna and charger cable, and a remote with an UP button.

1. Channel Selection for Each Shade

When you receive your shades, the channel number pre-assigned to each shade will be marked on the shade and/or carton. Per the notice above, it is not necessary to perform Steps 1, 2 & 3 as these settings are done at the factory and will require no adjustment under normal circumstances.

A channel number must be assigned to each motor/shade. The assigned numbers should be sequential starting with #1 (1, 2, 3 etc.). Press the channel buttons/arrows to select a dedicated channel for each shade prior to mating each shade/motor to the remote controller.

2. Programming/Mating

REMINDER: The motor and remote have been pre-set at the factory – programming information for Steps 1, 2 & 3 is provided as background information only.

Identify the head of the motor housing on the left side of the shade (see drawing). Press the PROGRAM button until the motor beeps and the shade oscillates (a quick back and forth movement). Press the UP button (⬆️) on the remote – the shade will oscillate again. The motor and transmitter are now mated.

Diagram shows the motor head with program button, and a remote with the UP button highlighted.

3. Setting UP and DOWN Limit Positions

NOTE: Upper and lower limit positions have been pre-set at the factory - programming information for Steps 1, 2 & 3 is provided as background information only.

Set the UP position: Move the shade 6" to 10" below the desired upper limit by pressing the UP (⬆️) or DOWN (⬇️) arrows/buttons on the remote. Press the PROGRAM button on the back of the remote – the motor will oscillate – this puts the motor in program mode. Now move the shade up to the desired UP position and press the program button again – the motor will oscillate and the upper limit is now set.

Set the DOWN position:

Move the shade down from the upper limit position to a point 6" to 10" from the bottom, and then press the PROGRAM button on the back of the remote – the motor will oscillate and is once again in program mode. Now move the shade to the desired DOWN position and press the PROGRAM button – the motor will oscillate and the lower limit is now set.

NOTE: After all limits are set, see the remote control operating instructions below.

4. Setting Intermediate Positions & Other Settings

Setting INTERMEDIATE positions

Up to (4) intermediate positions can be set.

Move the shade at least 6 inches away from the previously set limits – press the PROGRAM button on the rear of the remote – the motor will oscillate and is now in program mode. Now move the shade to any desired intermediate STOP position and press the PROGRAM button again – the motor will oscillate and the intermediate STOP position is now set. Repeat this process to set additional intermediate STOP positions.

Erasing Limits:

Note: The 1st/Upper limit cannot be erased – it can only be eliminated by deleting all memory.

Move the shade to the limit position that you wish to erase – press and hold the PROGRAM button on the rear of the remote for approximately 7 seconds – the motor will oscillate twice, and the limit has been erased.

Deleting Memory:

Press the program button on the head of the motor 4 times, and then press a fifth time and hold the button down until the motor oscillates twice. All memory is now erased.

Sleep Mode (to enable the control of more than one motor on a single channel):

Press and hold the program button on the head of the already programmed motor – keep holding the button when the motor beeps and oscillates until you hear a long beep – the motor is now in Sleep Mode.

Program the new motor by using the exact same steps as above to begin programming the second motor. Now set the limits on the new motor as described above. When you have finished setting the limits on the newly programmed motor, continue in the same fashion until all motors that you wish to have on that channel are programmed.

You then begin waking up each motor by pressing the program button on the head of the motor until the motor beeps – then press the UP button (⬆️) on the remote on the desired channel.

Using the Remote Control Transmitter

Press the UP/DOWN button once and the shade will move to the next pre-set limit position.

Press the UP/DOWN button twice at the speed of once per second and the shade will move to the UP or DOWN limit position without stopping at any intermediate position.

When the up position has been reached, the UP button becomes non-functional, and when the down position has been reached the DOWN button becomes non-functional.

Controlling Multiple Shades Simultaneously

6 Channel Remote: Press the channel selector until all six lights are lit to control up to 6 shades at the same time using the remote control as described above.

16 Channel Remote: Press the channel selector button until "CC" appears in the display window to control up to 16 shades at the same time using the remote control as described above.

Operating the Shade

To raise and lower the shade, use the remote control as described above.

Charging the Batteries

Connect the AC Charger to the Charger Cable attached to the motor head – charge for 8 hours.

Diagram shows a charger cable and adapter.

Installation, Safety, and Compliance

Installation/Replacement of the Remote Control Battery

Remove the cover on the rear of the remote by removing the screw (?) and sliding the back plate upward slightly – install a 3V [CR2032] disk type battery as illustrated.
