Agreed, interesting project…
So first thought is here: Apparently theae things mat actually have Somfy guts and be compatible with the MySomfy interface. See here:
The native Control is just on or off, all the way open all the way closed. No function to stop. I’m using the Somfy Z-wave to RTS interface, model 1811265. I’ve tried changing the type to Z-wave window shade, no luck. Has anybody found a solution for this?
If that doesn’t work… Maybe a good case for STAnything?
UPDATE 2022-08-17 - Per this recent SmartThings announcement, the Groovy IDE will disabled on September 30, 2022 . My best guess is that any existing ST_Anything devices will probably cease to operate at this time, or shortly thereafter. It has been a good 7+ year run for ST_Anything users. I want to thank you all for making ST_Anything a successful project! My son and I really had a lot of fun creating it together, and have enjoyed hearing how you have all used it in so many creative ways.
As many of you probably already know, I have moved on from ST and have ported ST_Anything over to Hubitat as “HubDuino” . If you have devices running ST_Anything that you ‘can’t live without,’ at least you know you have options. Another option for ESP8266/ESP32 users would be to use ESPHome along …
Would require replacing the switch with the Arduino and relays if you go that way but you coukd build a controller and with limit or tilt switches have a pretty cool setup.
