Somfy Motorized Blinds (Z-Wave)

Okay, I logged in. Nothing is listed though. I’m using the same e-mail address and password as my mobile app but they don’t appear to be synched. The website says I have to use my mobile app to “claim” my hub. Any more undocumented tricks here I need to use?

Thanks!

Joe

Check out the info in this thread. It looks like it might be relevant to your situation. Otherwise you might have to reach out to support…

Sorry for the late reply. My motorized motors with install cost $1700. This DID not include the blinds which I purchased a year earlier. It’s pricey but it’s my favorite automation that we use daily.

Ah, thanks jh0! Your link explained it. My initial graph.api account was in fact on the wrong “shard”. No idea which one since neither the website nor the URL indicated which one it was. What an amazingly user-hostile system! If Steve Jobs was still alive, Apple would have eaten SmartThings by now. Oh well. Anyway, I tried na02 and it worked this time. So I was able to change the control to “generic dimmer switch” and it now works as a slide control! However, when I tried to follow the ZebraBlind video’s tutorial of how to add the remote as a secondary control, it didn’t work. I put the remote into the green flashing state after putting the app into “add new Thing” mode but nothing happened and then the remote flashed red and stopped flashing green. Does anyone have any ideas what to do next? Thanks for all the help!

I recently got motorized blinds. One of my favorite automations.

Has anyone heard of MOVEZ? They were on kickstarter as a bluetooth electric aftermarket blind motor, but they now offer a Zwave version. Its coming out soon. I am a back. They are now on Indiegogo here https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/movez-motorize-blinds-and-shades-gadget/x/3745250#/

whoismoses · September 21, 2016, 3:51pm

Someone else posted something that has gotten a lot of clicks.

I no longer support anything on Kickstarter or Indiegogo because people like @alex get rich and we get garbage.

Can you please tell me how I can order a ZRTSII from you?

Everyone, I’ve created a SmartApp and Device Handler that will allow you to control your blinds as a group.

I’ve also created a Device Handler for the Somfy Autoview blinds. Anyone who has the older blinds want to test it out?

nattyb · October 23, 2016, 2:26pm

@Ash

Have you noticed that “dimming to 50%” lately doesn’t open to the My/Stop position? It works fine when I use my Somfy remote, but for some reason in SmartThings the 50% command only opens slightly then stops. Wondering if anyone else has noticed the same issue? Worked fine for months after initially using the code, but for some reason it seems to have changed…

nattyb · October 30, 2016, 5:13pm

Am I the only one having this issue? The My/Stop button opens/closes (depending on the current position) about 1", stops, few second delay, moves about 1" again, then stops for good. Does not go to the pre-programmed position…

E_Sch · October 30, 2016, 7:27pm

What dth are your using? I’m not having this problem

DTH is Device Type Handler? I’m using the below that Ash put together:

I suggest you use this one:

nattyb · November 1, 2016, 2:45am

Thanks for the heads up, Eric. I used that code and it does the same thing unfortunately, so I think it must be something in my ZRTSII module if no one is running into the same issues. Thanks for letting me know it was just me.

Being my physical remote still worked fine I was thinking maybe something had been adjusted on the SmartThings side. I’ll investigate on my end and post my findings when I get a chance.

BartschLabs · November 3, 2016, 4:03am

I’m interested in ordering the ZRTSII, but I’m a new forum user and I don’t think I’m allowed to PM you.

sauropod · November 6, 2016, 7:20am

Lowe’s is running a sale now through 3rd week of November I believe. I ordered two of these for about $76 each. Make sure you have the salesperson order under the Bali accessories, not Graber as the same device listed under Graber is around $100. Also, interestingly enough, Graber owns Bali.

absolute_w · November 8, 2016, 9:17pm

Do you have to go into the store to order the ZRTSI? What do I need to ask for? It seems like an odd product that they will have trouble looking up to order.

mbuitron · November 20, 2016, 4:11pm

Hi Please tell me how can I buy a ZRTSII from you
