10	10	Controlling shades from ShowRunnerCLC™ is a paid feature that can be purchased either with the initial [[ShowRunnerCLC™ order>>doc:showrunner™ Order Guide.showrunner™ Additional Features.Shades.WebHome]] or added after-the-fact as an additional charge. When shades control or integration is ordered for ShowRunnerCLC™, it is vital to ensure that the BOM includes any required hardware is also ordered.

94	94
	88	+ShowRunnerCLC™ can use output relays on Crestron hardware to control shades provided that the shades controller is capable of accepting a contact closure input for third-party control of the shades. All contact closure shade integrations are assumed to use two relays per shade zone with standard outputs as follows:
	89	+
	90	+* Open: close relay 1
	91	+* Close: close relay 2
	92	+* Stop: close both relays simultaneously
	93	+
	94	+Shade motors must be wired accordingly by the EC or the shades contractor (Chief Integrations technicians do not touch wiring). If the shades interfaces cannot be controlled this way, contact Chief Integrations to see about possibilities for support for shade controls using either a single relay or three or more relays per zone.
	95	+
	96	+=== Hardware Requirements ===
	97	+
	98	+* Crestron devices with output relays must be specified (refer to [[the above table>>doc:SHOWRUNNER™ Integrations Guide.Integration Options.Shades Integrations.WebHome||anchor="HCommonIntegrationMethods"]] for commonly specified hardware)
	99	+* Two Crestron output relays must be available for each zone of shades to be controlled
	100	+** Depending on the shade hardware and the job requirements, it may be possible to combine multiple shades to be controlled together onto a single pair of Crestron relays
	101	+* It is recommended that shade interfaces be installed as close as possible to the Crestron relays controlling them to prevent issues from voltage drop or EMF interference in the wiring between the relay and the shade interface

	107	+* **(Required)** Information associating each shade zone with a relay pair
	108	+** If C2N-IO or other in-field relay modules are being used, then we must know which shade(s) in which room(s) are controlled by each C2N-IO
	109	+** If a processor or other in-panel modules are being used, then we must know which shade(s) in which room(s) are controlled by relays 1 & 2, which are controlled by relays 3 & 4, etc. for each module
