Has anyone updated their shades to roller shades with the Multiplex system? I am wondering if I will be able to adjust the new shades with the stops (limits) already programmed into the Multiplex.

2007 Monaco Signature Series Noble III

Not sure if the signature shows up as I am posting this on the IRV2 App

Thanks

If you are considering the multiplex shades like those from MCD, or AMS, they are fully adjustable. MCD has the video demonstration on their website, and AMS has a PDF file outlining the process here: https://liferebooted.net/life-reboot...e%20Manual.pdf Both are pretty much the same approach, as are those from other manufacturers. I just converted myself, could not be happier.

Thanks for your response. Been working OT and haven't been able to get in the bus. Here is a short video of the shades now. Hold the button down and the shad comes down and then adjusts a bit to day shade. Hold it in again and it adjust a couple of inches to blackout shade. I'm guessing that that adjustment on the new roller shade would only raise it a bit and not enough to br able to see in under the shade from outside.

Thanks again for your help.

Which multiplex system are you taking about. I have one button on the side dash panel that runs through the Kongsberg front run box chassis multiplex and another button on the cabinet above the drivers seat next to the kitchen cabinets. The one in the cabinet goes through the Intellitec multiplex in the rear wardrobe closet area. My only electric shades are in the cockpit area. IIRC there is a small red button switch that is used to set the travel limits on the shades. From what I have learned these electronics were almost a one of, each coach being different. Just had two shades in the cockpit replaced when the motors died. Had a shop put them it so I don't know if they had to mess with the multiplex. The people that would know are the techs in Coburg, OR., at the REV center. (541) 681-8018 is their phone number.

The shades above the dinette and both couches in the living room are electric and are controlled by the Intellitec Multiplex in the rear closet with the secondary controllers behind the front TV. The are controlled by a multiplex switch in the cabinet above the drive seat.

I'll try REV group this week.

Thank You

I got the shades installed this weekend. Couldn't be happier with them. They work with the Multiplex system just like the old shades did. You just have to be sure to connect the same colored wire to the colored or white original wire. If you don't when you hit the all up or all down button they all won't work. I purchased them @ Bradd & Hall, Charles was a great help. I am in no way affiliated with this company.

One picture is with the day shade, which is manual, half way down. I think these will block alot more heat than the old Vienna shades.

Thanks for all your help.
