Hi all,

In my new place I have an Electric sun shade. Someting similar like this [link](https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Outdoor-awnings-sun-shades_574488152.html).

I would like to automate this. I have added two pictures from the button controlling this. I have two questions:

1. Would it be possible to automate this with the fibaro roller shutter 3?
2. In the button itself there is no room something extra. Is there something on the market with the same form as the button, but empty?

Thanks in advance!

Anyone who knows how to fix this? Electricity is unfortunately not my specialty. Thanks in advance!

I’ve bought one of these: [https://www.elektrobode.nl/products/jung-as500-opbouwkap-2-voudig-alpinwit-as582aww](https://www.elektrobode.nl/products/jung-as500-opbouwkap-2-voudig-alpinwit-as582aww) and placed the fibaro roller shutter 3 in the lower half with a blind over it. In the upper half I’ve placed this: [https://www.elektrobode.nl/products/jung-jaloeziewipschakelaar-539vu](https://www.elektrobode.nl/products/jung-jaloeziewipschakelaar-539vu) with these [https://www.elektrobode.nl/products/jung-as500-schakelwip-met-pijlsymbolen-alpinwit-as591-5pww](https://www.elektrobode.nl/products/jung-as500-schakelwip-met-pijlsymbolen-alpinwit-as591-5pww)
