Somfy Soliris RTS

pberden

Hi, I just bought the homey. I've got blinds with the Somfy RTS motor and a remote, and I've successfully paired them with Homey. I also have the Somfy Soliris Wind and Sun sensor. https://www.somfysystems.com/file.cfm/soliris_RTS_24V.pdf?contentid=275930

I couldn't find anything on the forum about this device. Can I also pair this with Homey?

Hi @pberden.
The Somfy app is made by Athom. I didn't know if Athom has the API of Somfy, maybe Athom is sniff the RTS signal and copy it.  There is a possibility to sniff the signal of different devices. I'm guessing: with the sniff information of your device, Athom could add your device to this app.

I've got the: "Somfy Sunis Wirefree RTS Sun Sensor" and the "Windsensor Zonwering Somfy Eolis 3D RTS"
I want to support Athom to develop the app on this devices. Have someone a idea to do this?

I've found a link to an app on this forum: https://github.com/athombv/node-homey-433/blob/master/HOWTO_CREATE_SIGNAL.md
Maybe this could help to get a definition for the signals of the new devices.

Yo, thanks for the reply. Sorry for not getting back on this earlier... I will need to find some time and sit down to see if I can create a signal like mentioned in the link.
Meanwhile I have been wondering whether the sensor is sending out signals at all... On the remote I can manually bring the blinds up and down, and I can set 'auto' on or off. When it's on auto, the sensor decides whether the blinds should go up or down. So my guess is that if can figure out a way to activate the 'auto' modus via Homey, then I can configure the blinds as I like. I would like the 'auto' modus only to be activated when the outside temp is above a certain value.

Hi, I have the same question - did you (or anyone else) find a way to get the Somfy Soliris working?
