Question
eug2000 1
Hi all,
First post, thanks for the help in advance. I'm making preparations for installation of my home automation. It's going to be a monster. I have a HC2 and something like 19 Double switches and 34 dimmer modules! Anyway, my question was in regards to getting the Home Centre 2 to communicate with a Somfy Mylink to control my motorised blinds/curtains.
Information on the somfy mylink here:

It is essentially a WIFI device that converts commands from an IOS or android app to RTS signals. I was hoping the HC2 could send some commands via TCP/IP to it, then have it convert the commands to RTS for control of the blinds. I understand I could use a RFXCOM RFXtrx433E USB with the Home centre 2 but was hoping to avoid the additional expense.
Additionally, I was wondering if the Somfy universal interface II could be used with the HC2

It's more expensive than the RFXCOM, however I could also connect it to my legacy philips pronto gear so it might be worth the additional expense. It communicated via RS232 or RS485.
Thanks all,
Eugene.
