Currently I am using the Trust Octopus Internet Control Station - ICS-2000 to control my Heim&Haus Window Roller Shutters and Awning (Blinds). All of them have been delivered with simu controllers and have Somfy motors. Integration into the Trust system was easy for all devices integrated - until those added until 2022. But I was not able to add the last window blinds delivered and installed in 2024.
So I decided to replace my Trust ICS-2000 and the Aquara Hub 9091 by Homey Pro to have only one hub being able to control all of my devices.
How can I add my Somfy blinds to Homey Pro without other Soft- or Hardware?
Hello Claudios, and welcome.
Which protocol do Somfy motors use?
- When RTS: Homey controllable
- When io: Homey controllable, ONLY combined with a Tahoma or Connexoon box or a Somfy Connectivity Kit
Hello Peter,
Thank you for your prompt reply.
My old devices are using RTS and it was not a big deal to get them integrated.
The two new devices are using io.
I have now a Somfy Connectivity Kit and the TaHoma app, and can easy control all devices using the TaHoma app.
But I was still not able to add the new io roller shutters to Homey, even though I have added the Somfy TaHoma & Connexoon app to Homey and logged in to Somfy.
Where is my error or how to proceed?
No problem.
Just try to add the new devices as slightly different but similar devices, until one of them works.
F.e. add venetian blinds as roller shutter, something like that.
Thank you again! Trying a different but similar device has solved my issue.
