Mecho partners with Legrand Wattstopper to Deliver Seamless Shade Control and Shading Integration
October 28, 2025
 Legrand®, a global leader in electrical and digital building infrastructures has announced a new integration between its Wattstopper® lighting control systems and Mecho motorized and automated shades. This collaboration creates a streamlined approach for building owners, designers, and integrators to combine advanced lighting and shading solutions, driving greater energy efficiency, comfort, and occupant control.
Through a simple dry contact connection, Wattstopper now easily and reliably controls Mecho’s iQ2-AC and -DC motors. This direct compatibility allows for a straightforward, robust integration, between Wattstopper PLUS or DLM and Mecho’s iQ2+ Single Motor Splitter. Users can operate shades with Wattstopper Plus GreenBus Wallstations or DLM Standard Switches, bringing a unified shade control experience to commercial spaces.
The integration is designed for ease of deployment and flexibility:
- Reliable Performance – Direct dry contact compatibility ensures seamless communication with Mecho iQ2 motors.
- Simplified Control – One-way integration with intuitive Wattstopper DLM controls provides straightforward shade operation.
- Design Flexibility – Multiple motor grouping options and programmable button personalities support diverse space configurations.
- Unified Experience – Lighting and shading controls now work side-by-side, enhancing occupant comfort and energy efficiency.
The Wattstopper–Mecho integration is available immediately and supported through standard programming tools and documentation from both companies.
