<div class="note">
The Powerview Hub does not automatically wake shades or report position changes made via pebble remotes.
{% include integrations/config_flow.md %}
Calling the update entity service (`homeassistant.update_entity`) on a shade entity will trigger the hub to awaken a shade and report its current position. [An example automation is available](#force-update-shade-position) below for mains powered shades. While the automation will work for battery-powered shades, it will quickly drain their batteries for these devices.
## Hub capabilities
### Generation 1 + 2
Generation 1 and 2 hubs work better with Home Assistant when all calls are made directly via the Powerview application or Home Assistant itself.
Generation 1 and 2 Pebble remotes use proprietary Bluetooth Low Energy (PLE) and do not report shade position changes back to the hub.
This will result in the shade positioning displayed within Home Assistant being incorrect.

### Generation 3
Generation 3 introduced RF Radio Pebble Remotes.
Generation 3 shades report position changes back to the hub automatically. They should appear correctly in Home Assistant without requiring any additional automations or considerations for positioning.
