SHADES CONTROL
Automated shade controls provide a connection to the outdoors, increasing natural light while conserving energy and reducing glare.
BubblyNet shade controls enable the integration of a wide range of shades and drapery brands, freeing your design from the constraints of proprietary systems.
BubblyNet has also developed hardware and software for controlling a variety of motorized shade brands. All forms of integration can set height, scenes, schedules, and be motion-activated. Integrating shading systems with BubblyNet gives the advantage of distributing the intelligence away from a central hub, reducing the likelihood of a shading system failure. Distributing the controllers also removes the need to run data lines to every shade.
When the Shade Controller C400 is paired with a Gateway or GPS timekeeper, the movement of the shades can be synchronized with the angle of the sun to the horizon for every day of the year.
Legrand
Utilizing RS485, BubblyNet integrates with the Legrand motorized shading systems. Since RS485 is digital, it allows for high accuracy shade adjustment. The BubblyNet Legrand Controller plugs in-between the shades and the QIS power panel. The simplicity in connection makes it easy to retrofit an existing installation.
Somfy
BubblyNet also can control blinds using the 0-10v protocol. This protocol was used to connect the Somfy motorized blinds systems. The software for this type of shade control can correct the inaccuracies in the 0-10v protocol, allowing for more precise shade height adjustments.
Forest
Utilizing RS485, BubblyNet has integrated with Forest motorized shading systems. Since RS485 is digital, it allows for extremely precise shade adjustment. The BubblyNet Forest shade controller fits into the back of the Forest motor and uses a single connector for both data and power.
There are several other protocols that have been integrated to control mechanical devices such as UART and I2C. Please contact sales@bubblynet.com to find out how we could integrate your preferred brand of shades.
