What You'll Need
- Eve Shutter Switch
- Tubular roller shutter motor (230V)
- Neutral wire required
- iPhone/iPad with Home app
- Screwdriver
- Voltage tester
Step-by-Step Setup
- Turn off power: Switch off the circuit breaker for the shutter circuit.
- Remove existing switch: Unscrew and disconnect the current shutter switch.
- Identify wires: Locate line (live), neutral, and motor wires (up and down directions).
- Wire the Eve Shutter Switch:
- L → Line (live)
- N → Neutral
- ↑ → Motor up wire
- ↓ → Motor down wire
- Mount the switch: Install in the electrical box and attach the faceplate.
- Restore power: Turn the circuit breaker back on.
- Open Apple Home app: Tap "+" → "Add Accessory."
- Scan HomeKit code: Find the code on the switch or packaging.

Troubleshooting
- Motor doesn't move: Check wiring—up and down wires may be swapped. Verify motor receives power. Test motor directly to confirm it works.
- Calibration fails: Ensure shutter can reach physical end stops. Run calibration again. Check for obstructions.
- Position inaccurate: Recalibrate. Ensure motor has proper end limits set. Position sensing is time-based, so motor speed matters.
- HomeKit won't pair: Ensure within Bluetooth range. Reset switch by turning power off for 10 seconds. Try pairing again.
- Physical buttons not working: Check wire connections. Verify switch is receiving power. Test without Home connection.
