I am experimenting with an app that can set the turn and extend positions of a Vogel’s Motionmount TV mount (Probably is Next 7355, I’ve had it for a couple f years). Currently, I can manually set the turn and extend positions from within the Homey GUI. I have a “then” flow “Goto position” that can set the turn and extend position from within a flow. I broke this with recent modifications, but that’s an easy fix most likely.
I am working on getting the presets in the app, which seems to be possible, but requires some more work and testing.
I have no experience with creating Homey apps, and have not looked at publishing. There also seems to be a difference in creating apps for old and new Homey Pro’s which I have not looked at. I may do that, but only if there are people who have such a MotionMount device and very much want an app to control it. Let me know!
I have published alpha release 0.0.3 of my app. This is the proof of concept, now including the possibility to set the MotionMount to one of the saved presets. I have done some happy flow testing, and it seems to work. Keep an eye on your device while testing! Also, note that your Homey has to be able to setup a stable bluetooth connection to your Motionmount. I had to move my Homey in range for this. The initial setup may fail if no BLE connection can be made when adding the device. I am working on getting that connection more robust.
The app has been tested by one person other than me, and it was reported that it works. If you do also test, please let me know!
