• Make sure that the Wand Jack is pushed all the way in
• Hold the Program Button on the bottom of the wand for 15 seconds. After you hear 3 beeps, wait 3 seconds and proceed to setting the Upper Limit and then the Lower Limit

• Check to make sure that your Shade Top and Bottom Limits are set where you want them to be
• Re-Configure your Shades Time (in seconds) from the Top Limit to the Bottom Limit
• Use the LinkShades App (https://app.linkshades.com) to Configure /re-calibrate Shade
• If you fail to Configure your Shade, the timing will be the Factory Default, which is generally different from your actual timing. This will cause the Shade to move to the wrong position
