A single gateway can optimally control up to 8 devices (7 shades + 1 remote). If exceeding this number of devices, simply add additional gateways to your account as necessary.

Knowing Your Shade’s Limits and Home Position

Upper Limit: The highest position your shade can reach. We pick a position that gives you the best view and also protects your shade from damage.

Lower Limit: The lowest position your shade can reach. This matches the shade length you ordered.

Home/Favorite Position: The HOME position is automatically set at to the midpoint of your shade. This can be adjusted to any point between the upper and limits.
Not available with the standard remote.

Layered Shade Home position is with the shade lowered with stripe open.
Sheer shade Home position is with the shade down and the vanes closed.

You can adjust each of these positions to fit the needs of your home—just follow the instructions in the Adjusting Your Shade’s Limits and Home Position section on page 13.
