Somfy switch event
Posted: Sunday 13 November 2016 11:03
Hello,
I'm new on this forum. I have a raspberry pi with a rfxtrx433e. With this combination, I control my somfy blinds, all works. The only problem is, that I have no feedback, when I use my somfy switches instead of domoticz to open or close a blind. There is no back channel. On my somfy hardware switches I have a down, a up and a stop key. Would it be possible, to use the pressing of this keys as a event trigger. When down is pressed, I could start down at domoticz to change to the correct status. Or better, I could change the status of the blind device in domoticz.
I tried to create a new device rfy power down and learn the down key of the hardware switch, but this doesn't work. Is something like this possible and what device could be a receiver? Thanks a lot.
