Hi. I have Homey and trying to control my Somfy blinds, but it doesnt work.  
I have installed the Tahoma Connexoon app on Homey.  
I have paired the Homey with the Somfy remote, the blinds gave the short reaction to confirm the connection.  
But, when i try to operate the blinds using homey nothing works, no reaction.  
Any idea what is wrong?  
Do I need to install a bridge or wireless connection between the Somfy and Homey?  
Beat regards,  
Knut

> First, I would like to thank Lennart Kuijs for making this app many years ago. I have found it extremely useful and it inspired me to write some of my own apps. However, Lennart no longer has the spare time to maintain the app, so he has handed the reins over to me. Local Access Tahoma and Connexoon now support local access when using a Homey Pro. To enable this you need to switch on the Developer mode in you Somfy account: First connect to the Somfy website and navigate to the man My Accou…
