Roller Shutter Actor: Somfy tahoma io vs z-wave

[RainerMZ]

I wanted to talk to you about two possible options that I am currently considering. I would like to automate my 4 remaining manual shutters. In the past I have installed qubino and fibaro actuators. While the qubino are much easier to install/configure, the fibaros offer an up/down/stop command in their homey app. Non of them offers precise positioning. My awning has a somfy io motor which I have integrated into homey via a tahoma box and the homey tahoma app. This io motor has an important feature: it is bidirectional and sends its correct position back to the base. I wonder if it makes sense to order io roller shutter motors. Yes, the tahoma base is an extra step between the motor and homey, but having accurate positioning sounds quite attractive to me.

Has anyone had any experience with somfy io shutter motors? Does the positioning via homey work reliably and does the advantage outweigh the higher complexity? Or is there any other actor that allows precise positioning?

I look forward to hearing your opinions.

I have 4 roller shutters, one screen and a terras pergola sunshade of 4 meters and all on [App][Pro] MCOHome App (v1.5.4) shutter switches with dump motors.

I am happy with pretty good setting to any level to open or close in % .

Hi,
Sorry for the delayed answer. First of all: thank you for your comments.
Maybe I had a wrong impression that with somfy io I would gain any significant advantages compared to „classic motors“ with L1, L2, N. So I tend to go for the classic ones.

My window maker (hope, it‘s the right word offered Somfy Motor Oximo 50WT SW 60 ED. According to the manual they work with L1, L2, N (see picture).

Can anybody confirm that these motors can work together with Qubino or Fibaro RS2/3?

Anything that speaks against these somfy motors?

[RainerMZ]

No one who could provide a statement?

looks a perfect match, if you forget the right-most wire, not needed in your case.
