In today's smart home era, convenience is key—and the Aeolus Remote Control by Graywind is here to redefine how we interact with our window shades. Whether you're looking to enhance comfort, improve security, or simply add a touch of modern elegance to your home, the Aeolus remote delivers. Let's explore what makes this device a must-have for any smart home enthusiast.
What Makes Aeolus Stand Out?
The Aeolus remote isn't just another accessory—it's a thoughtfully designed control hub that brings both style and intelligence to your fingertips. With its ergonomic shape, soft-touch silicone case, and sleek all-black design, it feels as good as it looks. The backlit display ensures clarity even in low light, while the minimalist aesthetic fits seamlessly into any modern interior.
But the real magic lies in what it can do.
Powerful & Flexible Control
✅ Individual & Group Control
With the Aeolus remote, you can control up to 15 smart shades individually or all at once. Perfect for large homes or open-plan spaces where unified control is essential.
✅ Favorite Position & Light Adjustment
Set your preferred shade position (anywhere between fully open and fully closed) with the dedicated function buttons. Fine-tune natural light throughout the day without ever leaving your seat.
✅ Timing Control & Automation
Set up to 20 timing groups to automate your shades based on your daily routine. Want to wake up with the sun? Program your shades to open at 7 AM. Want to protect your furniture from harsh afternoon rays? Set them to close automatically. You can even simulate presence when you're away—enhancing home security.
How Do Remote Control Shades Work?
The Aeolus remote uses advanced RF technology to communicate with Graywind smart motors. Once paired, you can control your shades from anywhere in the room—no line of sight needed. Here's how it works:
- Pairing: Use the remote to enter pairing mode (via the P1 button) and sync with your motor.
- Channel Selection: Assign shades to channels 1–15 for individual or group control.
- Operation: Use the open, close, stop, and favorite buttons to control your shades with precision.
