My Somfy-SmartThings Integration

There is a long thread about how to integrate Somfy Motorized Blinds (Somfy Thread) with Smartthings but I wanted to provide a step by step guide on how I did it.

The below steps are all AFTER you have motorized your blinds, purchased the zRTSII contoller (Somfy zRTSII) and have programmed your TELIS remote control. You can try and get this part from Lowe’s for $95 by ordering it in the store. I also tested the Somfy MyLink Hub, but for $…

I think you could also use a set of relays, or something like FortrezZ Mimo2+:
