MOVING TO YOUR SCHEDULE

Easy, Accurate Shade Control

Your PowerView shades will always be exactly where you want them, when you want them, thanks to Bluetooth technology, which features real-time, two-way communication between your shades and the PowerView system.

Why Smart Shades?

· Added Convenience—easily control shades with a button press, tap on your mobile device, automatically, or even with your voice.

· Increased Privacy—schedule shades to automatically close whenever you want.

· Better Energy Efficiency—schedule shades to raise and lower to keep interiors warmer or cooler, depending on the season.

· Enhanced Security—give your home a lived-in look while you’re away by scheduling shades to automatically raise and lower at set times.

· Safer for Children—because smart shades lack lift cords, they’re a safer option than shades with exposed cords.

Control Options

PowerView App

Use the PowerView App to control your shades with the touch of a finger. Easily activate preset or customized scenes that move each of your shades to your preferred positions, then schedule those scenes to operate on their own throughout the day. You can even schedule scenes to move with the sunrise or sunset. The App is compatible with Apple® and Android™ smartphones and tablets.

PowerView Remote

The handheld Pebble® Remote is a modern answer to clunky remote controls of the past. This remote easily operates up to six groups of window treatments, gives you on-demand control and comes in a range of stylish colors. If you’re worried about misplacing it, opt for the wall-mounted Pebble Surface Remote.

PowerView Gateway 

Get even more from your system by adding a Gateway. The PowerView Gateway provides integration with other manufacturers’ smart home systems and gives access to Remote Connect, so you can adjust your shades from anywhere in the world. It also acts as a range extender for larger homes and provides the best experience for shades in multiple rooms.
