Overkiz API and Somfy API

Guys, please explain, which Somfy IO sun and wind sensors are compatible with Overkiz? I have Tahoma Switch and O verkiz on my HA and I would to add wind and sun sensors.

What do you want to achieve? Often sun / wind/rain sensors are linked directly to the screen and will move the screen or block screen movement when an event is detected. Not sure if they also expose the values to the Overkiz integration.

If the values are present in the official Somfy app, they can be shown in the Overkiz integration :slight_smile:

I have 2 sun sensors, I believe they are the ‘sunis wirefree IO’ ones and they show up as LightIOSystemSensor in Overkiz. Lux values are available in HA.
The wind sensor I have isn’t visible in the Somfy app nor in Overkiz and controls the screens directly.

IO sunis sensors are visibel in overkiz. Wind sensors are not visibel. All brands have there wind sensors not exposed for external use :thinking:

moved my Somfy to the new app the other day, and now notice (might be coincidental, tbh I didnt really check before) that the MY position sliders dont sync with the Apps settings.

Which is a nuisance as I now no longer know who is in charge when automating in HA on that number.

If I set the app My position to 15%, the number in HA remains on 86%

Not sure what would be best now. Could it be the move to the new App (Somfy I mean) would require a rebuild in HA?

btw, the Target closure sensors are all at unknown

For me the “My position” entities have been “inverted”, see My Position configuration does not match position of recalling My Position · Issue #66767 · home-assistant/core · GitHub

The behavior I observed for the “Target Closure” entities seems to be that most of the time they are Unknown. They only seem to get a value when issueing a postion command (which then is the target they are supposed to go). Except when that command is to open the rollershutter, then instead of expected 0 it also becomes Unknown (hmmm, maybe this is why they seem to be Unknown for most of the time since I only look during the day when they are all open).

Wonder if anyone can help - currently using Overkiz and somfy and just got a new venetian blind which has both tilt and up/down
I can happily control the up and down and also set a My position, but I see no way to control the tilt - is there a way?
Thanks

Best is to create a new issue and add your diagnostics.

I got the same problem like Mark, any solution in sight?

Hi, I switched to local access and it works but is there a way to completely disable or remove Somfy cloud access?
When I use the official app (TaHoma) and when I’m not connected with my wifi network it’s still functioning like before. Yes I could remove the app, but the somfy box/hub still doing something with the cloud I guess (updates?)

Can you create an issue on GitHub? Include your diagnostics when the cover is set to manual / normal mode.

You can block the internet access of your hub via most routers (e.g. by leveraging parental controls :wink:).

before I proceed, given the fact this is still in section Feature requests: is this still the place to ask about config questions?
I need some advise on grouping positionless Somfy ‘Lamellen’ into a template cover, or group, to trigger HA into updating the last-updated when the My button is pressed

Best would be to discuss this in a new topic, not here :slight_smile:

Hello,

I just connected my Hitachi Yutaki S heat pump with my Tahoma (Connexoon IO). I had to switch back from the local API to the cloud API to get the heat pump to appear at all, but the support seems incomplete:

  • only one heatpump device appears (the water heater) and it appears as unavailable
  • the circuit 1 & 2 don’t appear at all
  • temperature sensors & settings don’t appear (probably linked to the issues above)

Is it intended? Shall I open a ticket?

Thanks!

Couldn’t find it exactly in this topic, but is the Somfy Dexxo Pro garage door opener supported in home assistant via the local api in combination with a Somfy connexoon?
