shades/blinds/projector screen control

Post by b_weijenberg »

The RFXtrx433 supports now the www.rollertrol.com RF controlled motors.
The Homeseer and VERA plug-ins support it now.

These motors are perfect for making custom remote control window blinds, sun shades, skylight shades, solar shades, night shades, projector screens, awnings, actuators, banners or any application where you need a rotating tube.

Hi Bert,

rfxcom supports a couple of blinds/screens/curtain systems right? I'm currently looking for a a system to use these kinds of screens http://www.zonweringstunter.nl/read/screens (link is just an example does not have to be that brand). What would you suggest? What would be the best option to use with RFXtrx433?
Kind Regards,
Greg.

Hi Moskus.

I just bought Rollertrol motor (18 mm) and Ikea Isdans. But they don’t fit. How did you get them to fit?

Regards
Morten

I requested the shipping cost, which is 89 USD (to the Netherlands). Have you paid this moskus or is there a more cost effective way?

I just paid the 89$ to Denmark.

It's some kind of express shipment. It was only a few days to get here.

So maybe you can ask for a slower and cheaper shioment?

Hi there. i am looking to purchase the Rollertrol Blinds for my home and would like to know if i can use them with the Domoticz server software with RFXTRX433 and the pilot iPhone app or the idomotic app.
I have installed, configured and been using now for about a week the Domoticz software for my existing appliances and this works very well.
I would just like to know how to setup the blinds with this system if possible.
I am assuming that there is an up command, down command and stop command.
Can anyone help me on this as I'd like to know before I commit to buying these blind motors.
Thanks,

Hal
