A compatible Aqara Zigbee hub is required for smart home control.
Battery & Power

The actual battery specification should be checked against the supplied regional model.
Battery life can reach up to one year between charges.
A USB-C port supports charging or suitable continuous power.
Connectivity & Ecosystems

A compatible Aqara Zigbee hub is required for pairing and automation.
- Apple Home with compatible Aqara hub integration.
- Amazon Alexa through supported integrations.
- Google Home through supported integrations.
- IFTTT and other platforms where supported.

Track Compatibility
The Track Version is designed for compatible U-rail and I-rail systems.
- U-rail bottom slot width: 8 mm or less.
- I-rail bottom width: 10 mm or more.
- Rail shape must allow smooth glider movement.
- U-rail gliders without wheels are not supported.
- End stops and mounting accessories must be compatible.
- Extendable rods are not suitable for this Track Version.
Measure the actual track before purchasing.
Load & Performance
The smart curtain motor can move curtains weighing up to 12 kg.
Actual performance depends on curtain weight, track length, and mechanical friction.
Suitable double-opening curtains may use two drivers with compatible configuration.
Two drivers do not guarantee longer battery life in every setup.
Installation
The Curtain Driver E1 mounts onto a compatible existing curtain track.
In many installations, it can remain hidden behind the curtain fabric.
- Check the rail profile and dimensions.
- Attach the correct track glider accessories.
- Mount the unit following Aqara instructions.
- Pair the motor with a compatible Aqara hub.
- Calibrate opening and closing positions.
- Test operation before enabling automations.
The system is designed for convenient retrofit installation.
Controls & Automation
Control the curtains from the Aqara Home application.
Create schedules and scenes for daily curtain operation.
- Open or close curtains at selected times.
- Use compatible Siri, Alexa, or Google voice commands.
- Trigger movement with supported Aqara switches.
- Combine curtain scenes with compatible sensors.
- Schedule movement around sunrise and sunset.
- Use supported geofencing or app automation options.
- Integrate with additional platforms where supported.
Built-in Light Sensor
The Curtain Driver E1 includes a built-in ambient light sensor.
This sensor supports brightness-based curtain automation.
For example, curtains can close automatically when ambient brightness exceeds a configured condition.
Such scenes help manage natural light, comfort, and privacy.
Manual Pull Operation
The motor can support manual-pull starting behavior when configured appropriately.
Gently moving the curtain can initiate powered movement in supported setups.
This feature depends on calibration and device settings.
Multiple Driver Setup
Two compatible Curtain Driver E1 units can be used in selected center-opening curtain systems.
The arrangement may help control each curtain panel.
Installation and calibration must match the track and curtain layout.
Actual speed and operating life depend on the configuration.
Matter & Smart Home Integration
The Aqara Curtain Driver E1 is a Zigbee accessory, not a standalone Matter over Thread device.
Matter compatibility depends on an Aqara hub supporting Matter bridge and the connected ecosystem.
Supported curtain functions can differ between smart home platforms.
Check hub firmware and device support before purchasing for a particular Matter setup.
