How to Set Limits on a Triathlon Shade With a Remote (Standalone)
Standalone means that your shades are not part of a Lutron Smart Home System, such as Caseta Wireless, RadioRa, or Homeworks. If you have already verified that your shades are Triathlon (step 1), please skip to Step 2.3 to determine if your shades are standalone or part of a system.
Please note: To set limits the Wireless Control must be assigned to the shade, click here to view the instructions on how to program a control to a Triathlon shade.
Step 1: Confirm that you have a Lutron Triathlon shade by the button style.
4 Button Shades - If your shade has 4 buttons it is a Sivoia QS, Sivoia QS Wireless, or Palladiom Shade and you should refer to the following link for: Programming a Lutron Sivoia QS Shade to a Remote
Step (2): Verify standalone operation
-
Press the Shade Button on your Triathlon Shades and observe for a solid green indicator light.
-
If the green indicator light remains illuminated, this indicates the limits of the shade are ready to be set, follow step 3.1 to assign a Pico remote control, or step 3.2 to assign a Lutron 4-Group remote control.
-
If the green indicator light turns off within one second, this means your Triathlon Shade is connected to a Lutron smart home system. In this case, you must pair your remote to your Triathlon Shade through your Lutron system.
a. If a Caséta Smart Bridge or a RA2 Select system is installed, use the Lutron App to program the limit settings.
b. If a RadioRA or HomeWorks system is installed, use the Lutron Designer software to program your shade. Please visit www.lutron.com/wheretobuy to find a local trained and certified Lutron Dealer.
