Help needed for Fibaro Roller Shutter i.c.w. sunshade

Hello,

I bought a fibaro roller shutter switch to control the Somfy motor of my sunshade but not with a positive result so far. Can someone please give me some help with the settings? In which mode do I set the switch? Do I choose the Venetian Blinds switch or something else?

A screen dump of the settings will be very helpful.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Rob

The setting should be the standard option 10=1.
What is the issue you have?
Did you do the calibration step by setting option 29?

Yes, I did. But when the cassette with the curtain is closed the motor keeps running. Also, when I push the stop button on the web interface, the motor doesn't stop.

Do you have end-switches on the somfy-motor ? Are they set ?

Mmm, not sure of that. The sun screen is also new. But shouldn't I at least be able to stop the motor when pressing the stop button? The setting of the switch is Venetian Blinds EU. Is that the correct choice?

The stop button? I am using the "Blinds percentage" switch which doesn't have the stop button, and am pretty sure there is no stop function at this moment for the ZWAVE Fibaro shutter switch as I remember I've been discussing this with gizmocuz, but we never completed that.( http://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopic ... aro#p64433 )
You can read in there how I am able to stop the shutter.
First thing to do is to set the stop switches of the motor correctly to avoid damage to the motor.

Thanks for your advice. Seems to work now. I only have to adjust the limits now.

Oke, I'm one step further. The limit switches are set. Now, when I'm starting the calibration process the screen goes to his "out" limit switch but doesn't go back to his home position. Playning with the value 18 (Motor Operation Detection) doesn't help either.

Do you have maybe a suggestion? (Except for buying a normal hand switch :mrgreen:

Thanks for the help!

Everything works now. I did a complete reset of the switch. After this, the calibration process went well.

Thanks again for the help!
