DESIGNER BLIND OR SHADE OVERVIEW:
BLIND OR SHADE can be automatically raised and lowered to improve the comfort and convenience of
your home. BLIND OR SHADE may be controlled with SINGLE CHANNEL REMOTE or a compatible security
or home automation system. Three custom positions may be programmed to BLIND OR SHADE
including an Upper Position, User Position, and Lower Position. The slats of BLINDS may be tilted to
control privacy or the amount of light entering a room. BLIND OR SHADE includes a Power Unit, which is
located at the bottom of the HGP and contains rechargeable batteries. The rechargeable batteries are
charged by a solar panel on the exterior side of the unit or by a wall charger that magnetically couples to
a port clipped to the HGP. A wire tucks into a groove on the HGP by the gasket and provides power
from the Power Unit to the motor located in SHADE or BLIND headrail.

system. BLIND OR SHADE will complete a quick up/down motion to acknowledge BLIND OR SHADE
was successfully added to the home automation system.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• Caring for BLIND OR SHADE is easy. You may remove dust with a vacuum cleaner or compressed air.
For spot removal, a natural or dry cleaning sponge may be used. It is not recommended to use
solvents or to scrub any portion of BLIND OR SHADE with an abrasive cleaner or material as this may
damage the fabric or painted surfaces. BLIND OR SHADE should only be installed indoors and away
from sources of moisture.
• For optimal performance of the Solar Cell, keep the exterior glass surface clean of dust and dirt. It is
recommended that the exterior glass surface be cleaned every 6 months or whenever dirt
noticeably builds on the glass. Use a glass cleaner and soft cloth.
REPLACING THE BATTERIES
The battery pack used in this product is recharged by the solar cell or by using the Insynctive Wall
Charger. Battery life is dependent upon a number of factors such as number of charge/discharge cycles
and average temperature in the environment. Battery life is expected to exceed 3 years in most
applications. When the battery reaches the end of its life, it will lose its charge quickly and will require
the batteries to be charged with the wall charger on a more frequent basis. If this occurs, contact
customer service.

HOME SHADE
Periodically, you may notice that the fully open position for Bottom Up Cellular SHADES or Raise and
Lower BLINDS or the fully closed position for Top Down Cellular SHADES has drifted lower. This occurs
due to normal wear and use of the shade and can be corrected by Homing SHADE or BLIND. The
Homing process will cause SHADE or BLIND to move up until it is fully compressed. SHADE or BLIND
then resets the position. To initiate the Homing Process, press and hold the UP button on REMOTE until
SHADE or BLIND reaches the top point of travel. Continue to press and hold the UP button for about 5s
until SHADE or BLIND begins to move up. SHADE or BLIND will stop moving when it fully compresses and
will reset the zero position.
FACTORY RESET
This procedure will reset BLIND OR SHADE to Factory Default conditions. All positions will be restored to
the original settings from the Factory.
• Slide the HGP latch releases side to side or up and down to open the HGP.
• Locate the small hole in the top cover about 4” from the end where the wire connects.
• Insert a paperclip or other small tool into the hole to depress the reset switch for about 3s.
• SHADE or BLIND will move to top position to acknowledge successful reset.
