Automation :

If the sun is too strong, the blind will automatically retract.

• When the sunlight is too strong in the afternoon, it is detected by the illumination sensor built into the Hub M1S, and the blind will automatically roll down, making you more comfortable while saving energy on air conditioning. In the evening, the blind will open automatically when the door and window sensor detects your return home.

The blind will close when you go to bed.

• The motion sensor above your bed will detect when you're getting ready for bed and trigger the Roller Shade Driver E1 to close your blinds to make your sleep more comfortable.

The blinds will automatically unfold according to a schedule.

• On weekday mornings, the blinds will roll down just before you wake up to make the atmosphere more pleasant. They'll stay down at the weekend so you can sleep in a little longer.
