Dear Community,

I’m posting this request as for ‘Selve’ roller blind engines there is not an app available.

See here for the product site: https://www.rolladen-shop.de/rolladenmotoren/mit-comfortfunktionen/selve-funk-rolladenmotor-sel-plus-rc.html

And here for additional information: https://www.selve.de/de/service/software-updates/service-entwicklungstool-commeo-usb-rf-gateway/

Frequency used: 868Mhz

And here for the protocol description: https://www.rolladen-shop.de/media/pdf/g0/92/b0/Bedienungsanleitung_USB-RF-Stick_SELVE.pdf

Please let me know whether it is feasible for somebody and/or you have questions or remarks 

Thanks in advance

    This is not a description for the RF communication but a description of the communication between a computer and the USB-dongle, the USB-dongle is providing the RF communication to the roller blinds.

    The USB connection can be established by a virtual
    COM port or directly via USB with the corresponding
    driver.
    Communication parameters:
    USB controller: FTDI FT234XD (USB 2.0)
    www.ftdichip.com
    USB driver support: FTDI provides a driver for:
    Windows, MAC, Linux, Android
    COM Port Baud Rate: 115.200 baud
    COM Port Data: 8 Bit
    COM Port Parity: none
    COM Port Stop: 1 Bit
    Protocol: via SELVE XML specification
    www.selve.de

    The Homey unit does not have an USB-slot where the dongle can be put in.
    So you actually need a description of the RF-protocol, for that protocol then someone must make an App for Homey.
    see https://github.com/athombv/node-homey-433/blob/master/HOWTO_CREATE_SIGNAL.md how the signals can be retrieved.

    Hello JPinB,

    Have you this app in development? Or is there someone willing to build it?
