Control of sun blinds

Hello everyone,

I need some advice on my future purchase of a sunshade :sunny:

I have requested and received an offer for Somfy blinds:

  • Lamisol III 90 FIX, blind with stapled slats
  • Somfy variation io receiver
  • Remote control Somfy Situo 1 variation io pure
  • Remote control Somfy Situo 5 variation io pure (for a 2nd blind)
  • With the following options:
  • TaHoma Switch
  • Sun sensor Somfy Sunis io, wireless
  • Wind sensor Somfy Eolis io

This offer looks interesting but … it does not know HA :sweat_smile:

There is indeed a Somfy integration in HA (TaHoma Switch local and another for Somfy cloud).

I want to be able to integrate it completely with HA (so without needing to use Somfy accessories.

If I understand correctly (and I don’t want to go through the Somfy Cloud), I must have at least:

  • TaHoma Switch
  • Somfy Sunis io sun sensor, wireless
  • Somfy Eolis io wind sensor

But will HA be able to connect to the “TaHoma Switch” without problems and retrieve all the information :thinking:?

And I can also take the remote controls as backup (just in case…)

Do any of you have experience with Somfy?

Thanks a lot for your help!

The Matter protocol seems to just a few month away.
Wait for the release of that and then ask for a Matter version.
No brand of IoT products will be without Matter support after that day and it will show who are serious about their products and who are not.

Yes, but… No.

Unfortunately, I can’t wait or it will be 40 degrees in my house this summer :hot_face: :hot_face: :rofl:

I have to choose next week, no choice

From what I understand it works with HA but… Well?

@Philippe_C did you manage to get it work? I have Tahoma Switch integrated to my HA and thinking about adding Somfy Eolis io and Somfy Sunis io.

Does it expose the sensors readings to HA via Tahoma Switch?
