ASUN 650 - Partialy open?

LeliekevertjeLeliekevertje Member

Hi,

I've installed a ASUN-650 ZONWERING SCHAKELAAR and paired it with my Homey. The flowmanager only has two options, open sunscreen and close sunscreen. Open sunscreen means it opens all the way (totally) but I would like it to open for (for instance) 70%. 

Is this possible to open the sunscreen - lets say - half way or 75%? Can somebody help me out?

    You could try to time it, like it takes 4 seconds to close completely,
    so when you want 50%:
    Send down/off signal so the sunscreen closes.
    Then with 2 seconds delay send another down/off signal so the sunscreens stops at it's position.

    I don't think there are more possibilities with KaKu, KaKu itself just doesn't have more options then up, down and stop.

    It is not possible with the asun. 

    I don't know of it is possible with a fibaro relay switch

    Like @caseda says you have to use timing... Kaku is one-way communication so there's no way to know how far open the blinds are. Zwave is two-way communication so @jovink may be right but you need a special motor for it judging

    I have tested several things with the KAKU ASUN-650 with LEDs connected. 
    As @caseda and @BasVanDenBosch  write en in written in the manual:
    To close you send an close and the ASUN switches the close wire max 120 seconds. 
    If you want to stop you have to send the same signal (close) a second time. 
    This doesn't work within approx. 2 seconds, the shortest period within two signals send from Homey I experienced was 3 seconds. 
    So to close a sunscreen 50%  which takes approx 7 ? seconds create a flow with two cards close, delay the second card in that case 7 seconds. 
    It already created a request to create a Blinds Down card to repeat the signal a second time after a configurable delay.

    See the discussion here,  (and ignore the Hazard :) )

    Does the Asun650 works after de last update? Sorry verder in Nl. Hier krijg ik een foutmelding na de laatste update

    I just tested my SunScreen with an ASUN 650, closed it for approx 75 % (26 sec.) And opened it. No problems with 0.8.35
