QIS-QzHub Integration Guide
QIS SYSTEM FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION OR MAJOR REMODEL
The QIS system consists of the QIS Power/Communications Panel (PCP), and the hard wired QIS shades. The PCP will handle
communication with the InFusion controller for conguration and live control of shades during conguration. The shades are
hardwired for both power and RS-485 communication using RJ-45 connectors and CAT5e (or better) network wire.
DESIGN CENTER QIS SHADES
NOTE: The following steps assume that the QIS system and InFusion system have been designed and the hardware installed and
powered.
1. InFusion system installed
2. Power/Communication Panel(s) (PCP) units installed
3. Shades installed
4. PCP wired to shades and RS-485
QIS
DESIGN CENTER SOFTWARE SETUP
1. In Design Center click on:
Object Explorer | Vantage Objects | Shades
A. Add shades to proper areas
B. Name shades
C. Set other Object Editor items
2. Create shade groups and assign selected invidicual shades to each group - see
Creating Shade Groups on last page.
3. Program the InFusion System Controller (F5)
With the controller programmed, place Design Center in Congure Stations mode.
While in this mode the user will select each shade in area view, and tug or disconnect /
reconnect the corresponding shade. This action will populate the “Serial Number” eld
with the shades 16-digit hex address, and the next shade will be automatically selected
for conguration.
ALTERNATIVE CONFIGURATION METHOD
First, program the InFusion System Controller. This method 1) auto-discovers all the
shades connected to a QIS Bus, 2) creates the appropriate shade objects in the Design
Center project le, and 3) imports their Serial Numbers.
1. For this method, right click on the QIS Bus in Bus View and select Discover Shades.
2. Name each shade, and 5) assign each shade to proper areas/rooms in the Design
Center project.
NOTE: Shades can be easily identied using the Jog Shade button found at the bottom
of the Object Editor when online.

QIS-QzHub Integration Guide
SET SHADE LIMITS
While Design Center has a live connection to the controller, the Object Editor allows:
1. upper and lower limits to be set using the shades current position, 2. copy another
shades limits, or 3. set shade length specied by motor “ticks”. When the lower limit is
set, the shade will automatically move to its new lower limit.
ALTERNATIVE METHOD SET SHADE LIMITS
Alternatively, multiple shades’ lower limits can be set simultaneously.
1. Manually pull shades to the desired lower limit.
2. Right-click the QIS Bus icon in Bus View and select Set Lower Limits.
NOTE: When Design Center is in Congure Stations mode, Qmotion shades are placed
in calibration mode so they will not go up when tugged on. This aids when manually
setting a shade’s limit. If a shade is pulled too far, take Design Center out of Congure
Stations mode (which takes the shades out of calibration mode), then tug on the shade
and it will open again allowing the manual position of the shade to be repeated with the
correct lower limit.
TIP: If a shade’s upper or lower limit gets changed outside of Design Center (such as
through shade tug commands), be sure to “Read” the shade’s limit, to get an accurate
limit tick value in the live control editor.
CONFIGURE SHADES (continued)
CAUTION: WHEN USING TICKS TO CONTROL SHADE
LIMITS DO NOT ACCIDENTLY ENTER A
NUMBER SO HIGH THAT THE BLIND BEGINS
TO ROLL BACK ON ITSELF OR DAMAGE MAY
OCCUR TO THE FABRIC AND/OR MOTOR.
3. A window pops up (see above) allowing the programmer
to select which shades to be included in the Set Lower Limits
process. Place a check in each blind box wanted for this
operation.
NOTE: This box allows programmers to select all the shades
in the project, all the shades in a specic room/area, or any
combination of individual shades.
4. Click the Set Limits button, a conrmation dialogue pops up
asking the programmer to verify all the shades are in the correct
position – click OK to nish or Cancel to abort the operation.

QIS-QzHub Integration Guide
LIVE CONTROL AND FEEDBACK
The Object Editor for QIS shades will contain a panel with controls that allow basic live controls and feedback of the selected shade.
This panel appears when there is a live connection to the controller, and the controller has been programmed. The panel contains
controls for shade identication using the Jog Shade, Open, Close, and Stop buttons. Also, a graphical representation of the shades
at its current position, is displayed. The graphical shade will also act as a slider to set the position of the shade – click and hold the
bottom edge of the shade to move up or down as wanted, then release.
NOTE: The slider operation will not position the shade correctly until the lower limit has been set.
Note: QIS Live Control Editor with close, stop, open, and etc.
control buttons only appears when the system is programmed
and Design Center has a live connection to the controller.

QIS-QzHub Integration Guide
QZ SYSTEM FOR RETROFIT OR NEW CONSTRUCTION
JOINING SHADES TO THE QZHUB3
QMotion’s wireless shade uses a device called the QzHub3, which acts as a gateway for ZigBee communications to the individual
shades. The QzHub3 will handle communication with the controller for control and conguration of shades using Ethernet. The
extenders only require a power connection, and must be placed within range of the QzHub3. The shades are completely wireless-
using batteries as the power source, and ZigBee for communications. The QzHub3 can handle up to 32 nodes (base) or up to 105
nodes (for full network size, if using Range Extenders). Nodes include shades, remotes and range extenders.
The programmer will need to activate the QzHub3 via the QMotion QzHub App to join the shades to the hub before programming
them in Design Center. The QzHub3 is the communications gateway between Qadvanced shades and the InFusion Controller. Each
controller can support one Qz3 Bus.
To use the QzHub3 with Vantage InFusion, you must rst join the shades to the hub through the QMotion QzHub App. This is
available for download on the iOS and Android App stores. For detailed instructions, refer to the QMotion QzHub App User Guide.
QZ SYSTEM AND QZHUB3
1. First you must create an Eliot
account for your homeowner
which is an email and password.
2. Activate the QzHub3 by naming
and putting in its activation code.
3. Go to Add Devices in the app
and tap Enable Pairing to begin
joining the shades one by one.

QZHUB3 LIVE CONTROL AND FEEDBACK
The Object Editor for Qz shades will contain a panel with controls that allow basic live controls and feedback of the selected shade.
This panel appears when there is a live connection to the controller, and the controller has been programmed. The panel contains
controls for shade identication using the Jog Shade, Open, Close, and Stop buttons. Also, a graphical representation of the shades
at its current position is displayed. The graphical shade will also act as a slider to set the position of the shade – click and hold the
bottom edge of the shade to move up or down as wanted then release.

SET SHADE LIMITS
Please see Congure Shades: Set Shade Limits (pg 3)
RANGE EXTENDERS AND REMOTES
To add remotes and range extenders, put the QzHub into conguration mode. Proceed to add the devices via their instructions while
the QzHub is in conguration mode. Once added, program the controller. NOTE: You will notice in the warnings dialog box that there
is an unknown device on the hub. This is your remote or extender. To remove this warning, you may create a pseudo Qz shade to
“congure” the extender or remote. This will cause the warning to go away, but you will need to note that it is not an actual shade but
a different device.
The Object Editor panel for control and feedback also has a property to set the Low Battery Threshold, and a battery level indicator at
the bottom of the editor.
BATTERY FEEDBACK IN EQUINOX
The full page view of Qmotion Shade Objects also
displays a battery object on each shade. See the
image descriptions below to understand the value of
the battery object.
NOTE: If the battery threshold is set above 30% in
Design Center, Equinox will never show a yellow
battery icon level indicator.

CREATING SHADE GROUPS
1. In Design Center select the room in Project Explorer |
Area View in which to add the shade group object.
2. In Object Explorer | Vantage Objects, double click on the
Shades Group object to add it to the project in the selected
room. The Object Editor updates with a list of all blind
objects in the project sorted by location.
3. Place a check in each blind box to be
included in the new Shade Group.
4. Equinox devices may have the new shade group selected to
display. The rst Shade Group in an Equinox prole will display
on the dashboard and the Shade Group details will display in
full page view. Additional shade groups may also display on
equinox devices (if they are selected to show), by scrolling left/
right through the pages. See additional Equinox information on
the Vantage dealer site and Design Center’s built-in help.
SHADE GROUPS
All shade grouping is handled through Design Center’s Shade Group object. In the Object Editor, checking a QIS or Qz Shade
object will add the shade to the Shade Group list. Other third party shades may also be added to the same group including relay
shades. However, there may be some advantage having identical Qmotion shades in a shade group allowing all shades in the
group to be controlled in a more synchronous manner. Equinox devices need shade groups in order to use the Equinox shade app.
This is the most comprehensive user interface available including graphical shade positions of individual as well as shade groups –
please see the User Interface table on page 1 of these instructions.
NOTE: Synchronized movement is affected by many factors, (i.e., shade length, shade material design, etc. All shades in a group
can open, close, or move to a specic position, but may not arrive at the fully open, close, or specic position at the same time).

TROUBLESHOOTING
DELETING SHADES FROM THE QZ HUB
It has been the experience that if there are power uctuations on the QzHub there are occasions where the Qz shades will drop from
the network and being sleepy devices, won’t rejoin. The simple solution to this is to tug the shades to wake them up and they will
automatically rejoin the network at that point. If you nd that you can no longer communicate with the shades that have been previous
added, try tugging on them to reestablish connection.
To remove shades from the QzHub, you will need to follow the manual tug commands or delete them by using the QMotion QzHub
app for iOS or Android devices and pairing the hub with the app.
