Pairing SmartShade to the App via Bluetooth

How to pair your SmartShade to the RYSE App using Bluetooth

Written by Vincci

Bluetooth and Location Services must be turned on, as the app requires access to these features in order to operate. The SmartShade should already be installed onto your window frame/shade. If you have a SmartBridge, please follow these instructions instead.

  1. From the RYSE dashboard select "Add a SmartShade", or tap the + icon in the top right corner and select "Add RYSE SmartShade".


  2. Select "Configuration".

  3. Follow the on-screen instructions to set the top and bottom positions of your SmartShade. Tap "Next" when this process is completed.

  4. Optionally, you may choose to learn more about your device's functionality. When you are ready to proceed to pairing, tap "Next".

  5. Select "Bluetooth".

  6. Press the PAIR button on the top of your SmartShade. When your SmartShade is found, tap "Next".

  7. Select your SmartShade by tapping its name.

    Tip: the default name of the SmartShade is RZSS, but if the device has been paired previously it may have a different name set.

  8. Your SmartShade will now be paired to your phone! Optionally, choose a new name by tapping the SmartShade's current name, and entering a new one.

  9. Your SmartShade will now be paired to the RYSE app! You can now raise/lower your shade remotely using Bluetooth.
