dw886 Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Curious if anyone has any guidance on the range for the HD PowerView Gen 3 Pro gateway - it looks like the Pro unit can handle up to 30 shades, and is communicating with the shades using bluetooth low energy (BLE). Also looks like it can run using POE - wondering if there's a way to mount these, or if they have to sit on a counter / shelf somewhere. Also wondering what type of real-world range can you get from one of these? The shading guy is used to adding a remote to each shade, and not super familiar with integrating all of this with Control4 - wondering if there's someone on here with some experience that can chime in.

Cyknight Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 No specific experience to the Gen3 numerous on V2, but in general integration works fine: Bridge driver is 3rd party but free (paid for by HD): https://drivercentral.io/platforms/control4-drivers/blinds-shades/hunterdouglas-powerview-gen3/ You'll have full % feedback and control over valens, black-out and main separate control and so on. Just don't use the remotes (or the app)once integration is done. Issue has never been the driver (since Cinedev made it) - it's more reliability between bridge(s) and shades: Stay away from the repeaters, use more than one bridge if needed. Reliable even over WiFi that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
