Page 6: Radio Control
Radio Control Getting Started with Radio Control Radio control gives you the ability to control individual window shadings or multiple window shadings at the same time, even if they are in another room. Group Assignment To use radio control, each window shading must ﬁrst be assigned to a group.
Page 7 Radio Control Group Addition or Removal Before you begin, operate the window shading using infrared control to make sure that you are communicating with only one window shading and that the window shading is working properly. TIP: Move the remote as close as possible (2"– 3") to the sensor eye when assigning groups.
Page 8 Radio Control Radio Control Operation Operating your window shadings using radio control is much like using infrared control, except that you can control multiple window shadings at the same time, even if they are in another room, and you do not have to aim the remote at the sensor eye. 1.

Page 18 Troubleshooting Changing the Infrared Channel of a Window Shading Window shadings can operate on either of two infrared channels. While many installations work well when all window shadings are on the same infrared channel, it can sometimes be convenient to change the infrared channel for some window shadings to reduce inadvertent operation.
Page 19: Group Assignment Worksheet
Group Assignment Worksheet Before assigning window shadings to groups, we recommend that you plan your group assignments. For example, you might create a group for all window shadings in a single room or a group just for all window shadings on one wall. NOTE: A window shading can be a member of more than one group.
