They offer motorization with the Somfy System, but before doing this, I would like to ensure that people have been able to integrate them with Smart Things and ensure that I know exactly what need to be purchased in order to complete the install.
From what I’ve read on the forums, this will work.
and follow instructions posted by Tyler Lange in this thread:
Basically, my questions are:
-Any other parts needed, or is this it?
-Have people been happy with this setup? Motorized blinds are expensive, so before I spend all this money, I want to make sure I don’t end up disappointed
Just a bit of good news here. Received my Somfy cell shades last night. Opened the box at 5:00 pm. By 8:30 pm I had them hung and I was using my ST to control them. … Now how to get Alexa involved ???
“Alexa Open Blinds”, “Alexa Close Blinds”, “Alexa, Turn on Tilt Blinds” all works. The integration is by far my favorite. I wrote a Blinds Sync app too which helps sync status of blinds.
@Mbhforum I saw your new app. However you did such a wonderful job (and spent a tremendous amount of time) helping to set me up the first time that I am intimidated to make any changes… the old saying… if it works, don’t fix it defiantly applies LOL
This is a simple and cheap way to integrate Somfy RTS and SmartThings, is ready to run and very reliable.
The kit includes: - One channel Dry contact Interface – Somfy RTS compatible. - 5volt adapter - Wire connector - Contact closure relay
if someone needs help or have any question please email me to: info@bemotorized.com or reply this post.
