18V DC Power Supply

NOTE: 

When power is connected to the motor, a blue LED inside the control button 

housing will flash to indicate the shade is ready for operation.

Plug the other end of the extension cable into the 18V DC power supply.

18V DC Power Supply with Daisy-Chain Connections

NOTE: 

The daisy-chain feature is only available with the 18V DC Power Supply option.  

Refer to this section if you have an 18V Power Supply with daisy-chain connections.
The daisy-chain feature allows up to three Automation III automated shades to be  
powered by a single 18V DC Power Supply. However, each shade can operate independently. 

 

Route the power cables from each shade to the Y Adapter using extension cables (if necessary).

 

Plug an extension cable into the Y Adapter and the 18V DC Power Supply. A two-shade configuration is shown below.

 

Plug the 18V DC Power Supply into a standard outlet.

 

An additional Y Adapter and two additional extension cables are used for three shades.
