Common questions
What is the IRT 803 transmitter?
The IRT 803 (1870132) is Somfy's 8-channel infrared remote, listed in Somfy's instructions as the IR 8 Remote. It sends commands to Somfy motorized shades and blinds fitted with a Somfy IR receiver, with up to 8 products on their own channels.
How do I run a shade with it?
Press the channel number for the shade you want, then press the up button to raise it or the down button to lower it. The center button stops the shade while it moves, as Somfy's IR transmitter instructions describe.
What does each shade need to work with this remote?
Each shade or blind needs a Somfy IR receiver, because the IRT 803 sends infrared commands. The remote runs on batteries, so the handset itself needs no wiring or power supply.
Which other Somfy IR remotes are available?
For one shade, the Somfy IR1 Single Channel Remote (1870133) covers a single product. For larger rooms and projects, the Somfy 1-99 Channel IR Remote (1810498) handles up to 99 channels from one handset. Both use Somfy infrared control.
What happens if I lose the remote?
Somfy states that a lost IR transmitter calls for professional programming help. Contact Somfy technical support or a local Somfy dealer to set up a replacement IRT 803 with the IR receivers already installed on your shades.
