SDN shades are programmed using the Screen Innovations SIFI via the web interface. This
programming can be done with a Windows or Mac computer either over LAN or wired directly to
SIFI. The following instructions are for a Windows computer, but the steps for programming on
a Mac are very similar. For a complete guide to program SIFI on a Mac, please visit our website.

3. Double click on the SIFI, the default web browser will launch
4. At the landing page, click the three lines in the top right corner, then click “Settings”
5. Select the “SDN” tab on the top left
6. Press the spyglass to auto discover motors on the SDN network (may have to press it more than
once)
