Abstract: Techniques for configuring an architectural structural covering system are described. The system can include a number of coverings and a number of gateways. A gateway can be communicatively coupled with a covering, whereby remote controls of the covering can be effectuated via the gateway. To set-up such system, proximity metrics between coverings and the gateway can be processed and presented at a user interface to indicate the quality of the placement of the gateway in relation to a connectivity range to a space that includes the coverings and in relation to the strength of the connectivity to each covering. After the placement of the gateway is complete, the gateway can be connected to a data network and can receive from a computer system a configuration of the coverings and an assignment indicating which covering the gateway is to control.

Abstract: Systems and methods for configuring a user device to remotely control a plurality of architectural structural coverings are described. A user device receives a plurality of broadcast signals from a plurality of architectural structural coverings. Each individual broadcast signal is associated with an individual architectural structural covering and relays position information for the individual architectural structural covering. Each broadcast signal is also associated with an individual entry in a list of entries displayed on a user interface of the user device. Each entry comprises a representation of an architectural structural covering having a displayed position that matches position information from the broadcast signal and a position control for controlling a physical position of the associated architectural structural covering. When a user adjusts the position via the position control, an adjusted position instruction is sent to the associated architectural structural covering. The displayed position of the representation on the UI is changed to mirror a change in the physical position of the architectural structural covering as the user device observes broadcast position data from the architectural structural covering.

Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure relate to various aspects of architectural structure coverings. A particular aspect relates executing a reset mode for one or more of architectural structure coverings. In said aspect, reset data is sent by an architectural structure covering indicating that this covering is in the reset mode. A user device receives the reset data, presents a user interface that identifies selectable reset actions. Upon a user selection of one of the reset actions, a reset instruction about the reset action is sent from the user device to the architectural structure covering that then performs the reset action.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining proximity of architectural structure coverings. A user device receives a broadcast signal from each of a plurality of architectural structure coverings. An ordered list of the plurality of the architectural structure coverings is then maintained based on the broadcast signal. At least a portion of the ordered list is displayed on a display of the user device.

Abstract: A method for configuring a user device to remotely control an architectural structural covering. The method comprises receiving a signal from the architectural structural covering, the signal relays position information for the architectural structural covering. The method further comprises associating the signal with an entry in a list of one or more entries displayed on a user interface of the user device, the entry comprises a representation of the architectural structural covering having a displayed position that matches position information from the signal. The method further comprises receiving user input via a position control for the representation of the architectural structural covering. The method further comprises based on the user input, sending an adjusted position instruction to the architectural structural covering. The method further comprises changing the displayed position of the representation of the architectural structural covering to mirror a change in a physical position of the architectural structural covering.
