A Z-Wave Remote Made for Shades

The Qubino Shades Remote Controller is a handheld Z-Wave remote designed specifically for motorised shades. It gives you the familiar feel of a traditional blind remote with up, stop and down buttons, while working over Z-Wave alongside your wall switches, smartphone app and automations. It is the ideal way to add a dedicated remote to shades fitted with Qubino Flush Shutter modules.

Control Up to 9 Shades

The remote has 9 channels, so one handset can operate up to 9 shades, blinds or awnings around a room or the whole home. Select a channel with the plus and minus buttons, and the LED display shows which one is active. You can also group several shades so that a single button press opens or closes them together, for example every blind on one side of the house.

Works With or Without a Hub

You don't need a smart home hub to get started: the remote can control Qubino shade modules directly, so you can fit motorised shades with a simple remote straight away. When you are ready to add a Z-Wave gateway, the shades can be controlled from your phone and included in schedules and scenes as well, while the remote and wall switches keep working.

Remote, Switch and App Together

Qubino describes it as the only remote that allows combined control of shades with a remote, a wall switch and a smartphone. Whichever you use, the shade responds the same way, so guests can use the familiar wall switch, you can use the remote from the sofa, and your automations can open and close the shades at set times or in response to sunlight and temperature.

Roller Blinds, Awnings, Windows and More

Use it with any motorised shade fitted with a Qubino shutter module, including roller blinds, vertical and venetian blinds, curtains, pleated blinds, awnings and motorised roof or tilt windows. For venetian blinds, the remote can also adjust the slat tilt to control how much light comes in, without fully opening or closing the blind.

Specifications and What's in the Box

The remote runs on two AAA alkaline batteries, which are included, and has a Z-Wave range of up to 40 m indoors in open space. It measures 48 × 140 × 18 mm and weighs around 52 g, and is designed for indoor use from 0°C to 40°C. In the box you'll find the Shades Remote Controller, two AAA batteries and the user manual. Shutter modules are sold separately.
