Tips for grouping blinds to match your home layout

Before adding the blinds to your Smart Controller, we advise you taking a moment to observe your home layout and try to identify the schedules that will be the most useful to you. To help you, here are some common examples:

• Open blinds in the morning to wake up or after wake up time
• Close blinds when the sun hits directly
• Close blinds for privacy at night
• Close blinds before bedtime

Blinds with identical schedules (days of the week and time) can be added in the same room to make its automation (and integration to third party devices) easier and more flexible. Have in mind that you can always add the same blind in different rooms, if necessary. Just repeat the process to add a blind in the app with the same blind into multiple rooms.

Using the illustrated house above as an example, besides grouping each blind in its corresponding room, the blinds on the east wall of the house (right side of the image) were grouped in a room called East Wall. This room will also facilitate the voice commands usage, if a voice control device is integrated, such as Amazon Alexa.
