Long-life Battery Operation
Power is supplied to the QMT® shade motor via 8 D cell batteries2(not supplied). The batteries are
stored in an external battery compartment that is mounted in the fascia of QMT3 Series Architectural
shade hardware. When mounting with QMT3 Series Décor shade hardware, the battery compartment
can be hidden behind the roller shade fabric, valence, or drapes, and can be color-matched to the
bracket hardware.
QMT®3 Series Architectural or Décor Mounting
Hardware
Designed for use with Crestron® QMT®3 Series Architectural (CSS-ARCH3) or QMT3 Series Décor (CSS-
DECOR3) mounting hardware.1QMT3 series mounting hardware is a compact mounting system that
allows a Crestron shade to be mounted on a wall, ceiling, or window jamb.
The CSA-ARCH3 fascia for battery-operated shades includes an integrated battery holder that neatly
stores the battery compartment. The battery holder swings open to provide easy access for battery

replacement.
Natural and Artificial Daylight Control
Protect fine furnishings and floor coverings from harmful UV rays with intelligent shading solutions. For
added energy efficiency, shades can also be configured to track the location of the sun to reduce solar-
heat gain in the summer and utilize its warmth in the winter. Crestron shades can also be set to
automatically close, preventing glare on a TV and ensuring the ideal viewing scenario.
Security and Privacy
Shades provide privacy and security. Use semi-translucent shade fabrics to allow natural light into the
space, or blackout shade fabric to completely block views. In the event of a forced entry into a home,
shades integrated with a security system can be set to raise automatically, allowing an intruder to be
easily spotted from the outside.
Quiet Shade Motors
Crestron automated shades feature low-voltage Digital QMT® shade motors for quiet operation.
Crestron shades help manage daylight without audible disruptions to the space.
Brushless Motor Technology
The Crestron Digital QMT shade motor is a brushless design, which translates into exceptional reliability,
smoother operation, and ultra-quiet performance.
Easy Installation
Crestron shades are easy to install. Brackets are easily mounted, and the shade components are
secured with no special tools required.
Crestron Design Tool Shades (CDTS) Software
The Crestron Design Tool Shades (CDTS) is a web-based tool used for quoting and ordering Crestron
roller shades and drapery tracks. The software may be used to easily create proposals for customers
and place orders directly to Crestron.
Notes:
1. Battery-powered shade motors cannot be used with roman shades, horizontal sheers, dual-roll brackets, couplers, and
pockets.
2. Estimated battery life is based on two open/close cycles per day. High environmental temperatures and shades taller than
60in. (1524mm) can reduce the battery life.

Mount the Shade Brackets
Mount the roller shade with CSA-ARCH3 series or CSA-DECOR brackets.
CSA-ARCH3 Brackets
CAUTION: There is risk of personal injury and equipment damage if the shade or associated parts
fall during or after installation. Use care during installation. Use mounting hardware (for example,
screws or bolts) that is appropriate for the mounting surface when securing the brackets.
To mount the shade brackets:
1. Check for a proper fit by holding the roller shade assembly in the approximate mounting location.
Use the fascia to measure the proper distance between mounting brackets. The brackets should
be mounted flush with the end of the fascia.
2. Mark the locations of the brackets.
lThe mounting points must be level, plumb, and on the same plane. Use a laser level to make
sure that the brackets are level.
lSpace the brackets according to the specifications on the order form.
3. If applicable, attach the end caps to the mounting brackets. Attach the end cap marked LEFT to
the motor bracket (stamped with an L) and the end cap marked RIGHT to the idler bracket
(stamped with an R). The end caps snap into place.

Product Manual — Doc. 9206B CS-SHADE-ROLLER-BATT • 16
4. Mount the brackets to the outside of the window frame (outside mount) or the inside of the
window frame (inside mount). Use hardware that is appropriate for the mounting surface. Make
sure the brackets are level and mounted to a flat surface.
lMotor Bracket (L): Mounts on the left-side of the window opening.
lIdler Bracket (R): Mounts on the right-side of the window opening.
NOTES:
lThe stamped Land Ron the bracket should face the wall and window.
lFor inside mounts, secure the mounting brackets to the window jamb or the window
header.
lThe screws provided with the mounting brackets are intended for use on walls (or
jambs) with wood or metal blocking. These screws should not be used for hollow drywall
or masonry installations. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the
mounting method used is secure.

Rotate the Keyhole
When the idler bracket is mounted, the keyhole in the idler bracket must be parallel with the wall; the
head of the adjustment screw must face down. Rotate the keyhole so that it is in the correct
orientation.
1. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the four screws holding the idler mount in the left-hand
bracket and then remove the idler mount. Keep all hardware for reassembly.
2. Reassemble the idler mount and the bracket so that the keyhole is parallel to the wall when the
bracket is mounted. The screw head on the vertical adjustment screw must face down.
