My HASS is up and running. I’m not a newbie concerning linux. But quiet new to HASS. So I ran out of ideas…
I want my FGRM222 to stop at a maximum postition (meaning the shutter goes down and has to stop about one meter off the floor). There is an obstacle where the shutter reaches the floor (flower pot). Simplest solution woud be to remove the pot, i know but as a geek, that’s not an option.
Hi,
first of all, your Switch should be discovered as a cover in HA.
Than you have to setup the FGRM222 in the Openzwave to use positioning and you have to start a calibrate run in Openzwave. (read more in the Fibaro documentation)
When done, go back so HA and now you can click on the the cover and you have a little position-bar.
Looks like this. You can use this in Automations or scrips. Have fun
Thank you kolossboss! This works already. What I want to achieve is the shutter to stop as it reaches a certain postion so it won’t hit the flower pot. Any idea on this?
In general: Is there a generic way to solve this kind of problems? Is there a systematic or even dogmatic way of creating a solution in HASS? I want this -> I have to think in this categories -> I read that -> I then develop this solution?
For the fibaro roller shutter 2 there is a config option Venetian Blind mode. You can choose what the cover will do when you give them a position: just stop, go back to previous position, open the slats
I just finish my installation of Shutter roller 2 and trying to include it inside HASS… it working to open and close the Venetian Blinds bout there is not control at all about the slats… with is a really lack in my point of view… I’m quite disappointed about that…
i also searching for a way to control the slats but not lucky.
a workaround that works for me:
write a script which set the blind level
after reaching the position add a action that open the blinds just for a second and now the flats turn arround.
the only thing you need two scripts one for open and one for close and put the ihrer direction back to open the slats…
If you do this for more than one cover at the same time you should do it seperatly because of the short delays.
My slats needs about 1,2 seconds for full turn. so 500 ms is perfect to open a bit.
Do you controll more than one cover at the same time?
For me it works only if i do the covers step by step and not the same time, otherwise they are in different position after
