Robert - you're a godsend! I've looked at the slick Somfy videos so many times and their directions never worked. Yours was so easy and I fixed my motorized shade positions in 5 minutes. Thank you for saving me from calling the Shade Store another time to reprogram my shades and spend far more time. Thank you and great work!

I'm in the same boat, about to try this method later today.
Another "finally" comment from me! This was the video that gave the magic tip to correctly set the lower limit of the blind, which was to firstly let it run all the way down (even if it's too far), before entering the programming mode to adjust the position. I'd spent hours watching loads of the "official" videos, which were no help at all. Thank you! ALSO THIS VIDEO HAS A CAT!
Finally...the one video that fixed my problem. I needed to set my lower limit and could not do it. Every time I pressed up and down, the shade jogs..then "My" where I wanted it, all that did was change the direction of my shades. Very frustrating. After watching this video, the key to my success was letting the shade roll all the way out. THEN performing up and down, moving it to where I wanted it, then my. It set the lower limit and didn't change direction. I installed all six of my Somfy blinds, fished the AC behind the walls, made for a nice clean install. It was a lot of work, but the most frustrating part was this programming.

Thanks man, I reprogrammed my awning that uses the same remote. Went through 10 videos before I found yours that makes the most sense!!
Even after 8 years of posting this video, I used it to fix mine.. thanks for sharing 🙏🏼

Thank you so very much!! You saved me over $300 just for a house visit from my local blind repair person. The repairman told me on the phone that they thought that it sounded like I’d have to send it back to the manufacture. They gave up before they even tried. So, I found you and you fixed my problem!!! Thank you Thank you!!!
I can’t thank you enough! For some reason, one of my shades stopped coming down as far as it should. I found your video and followed it…worked like a champ! Thanks again! All is well with the world again 😉👋🏻
Thanks for the excellent video. It's so much better than the OEM instructions
This is awesome, thanks so much. Can't believe I've had broken blinds for 3+ years without thinking of searching for this

The only video that advised you have to run the motor to the limit prior to entering programming mode. Stumbled across this video after about 45 minutes of attempting to follow the manual. Thanks so much!

You are the man ! I previously saw 4-5 videos and couldn't make it work, motor would not enter programming mode. No one (except you) mention clearly, that the motor ONLY enters in programming mode (when both up and down arrow are pressed at the same time), if, and only if, the motor is previously run its course all the way up or down. So simple, yet omitted by the rest, BRAVO!!!!!

The other videos missing one very important detail. Before reprograming, the blind has to be in the lowest position. It's the 6th video I checked and finally worked.
Thanks so much! Exactly what I was looking for and easy to understand. Much appreciated 👍😊
Thank you, this was easy and worked straight away, just what you need. 5*****!

At the end of programming, do you use a pencil tip and push the little hole at back of remote?
@NYDRAPERYGUY8000
Жыл бұрын
when you are adjusting the limits you do not push the button in the back. The only time you would usually push the button in the back is when you are first setting up the shade
How about adjusting a series of windows with electric shades that do not align, I have 4 inline and one shade is about 2” higher and one shade is about 1” lower than the other shades.

This worked with my r28 rts to set limits! But after exiting program mode, the remote only works with the shade for a minute or two before the shade becomes unresponsive. If I disconnect power from the shade for a minute or two and reconnect, the remote can control the shade for a couple minutes before it stops responding again. Any ideas on what might cause this?

@@NYDRAPERYGUY8000 I've held it down when the motor is responsive (and the shade jogs), but the shade still stops responding a minute or two later. Once the shade becomes unresponsive, no amount of time holding down the programming button on back will make the shade respond. The only thing that makes the shades responsive again is to power them off and on again.
