Bond Bridge RF Control - Fans
Ceiling fan and generic RF device control
Control up to 16 ceiling fans and 8 generic devices through Bond Bridge. Network scanning, dynamic device selection, real-time feedback, custom RF command recording.
Control ceiling fans and generic RF devices through Bond Bridge directly from Q-SYS. The plugin turns non-smart RF-controlled equipment into fully integrated devices by recording their RF commands and replaying them on demand, all without requiring a cloud connection.
If you need shade, fireplace, or Somfy device control, see the Bond Bridge RF Control - Shades plugin instead.
Network scanning handles device discovery automatically, eliminating the need to manually enter device IDs. Once your Bond Bridge is found, dropdown menus let you select and configure devices quickly. The plugin operates entirely on your local network, communicating directly with the Bond Bridge hardware.
