Mounting↑
Install the Silent Gliss 50 Series motor according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Connect the power supply (orange/white terminal) and the Tree data lines (green/white terminal).
Then attach the +24 V and GND wires of the plug connector to the 24 V motor power supply and plug the Shade Control into the Silent Gliss 50 Series motor as shown in the wiring diagram below.

Commissioning↑
For commissioning, the device must be supplied with power and a connection to the Miniserver must be possible via the Tree Interface.
Then follow the pairing procedure on the Tree Interface.
Programming↑
The LOXONE Shade Control is programmed and set up using the Automatic Shading integrated function block in LOXONE Config:

In the device properties, the duration of a complete movement can be configured. The device reports the actual travel range of the motor, allowing shades of different lengths to reach their end positions simultaneously.
The movement direction can also be inverted depending on the installation, ensuring that the up and down commands in the LOXONE App correspond to the actual movement.

The end limits can be set or adjusted directly in the LOXONE App under "Service Mode". The movement direction can also be changed here.
