Blinds and window sensor


Todd Magatelli

Question

Hey everyone, I have a  window that has a electric blind on it as well, When Fibaro closes the blinds it will shut the blind regardless of the window being open or not. This is what i need to happen i would like the to only shut when the window is in the closed position, when it is open the blind to NOT be able to shut. I have a Fibaro window sensor on the window, has anyone done this Scene yet?

the red markers to make the door a condition it is closed  (uncheck use as trigger). 
the blue arrow to what should trigger the electrical shading.

just an exampel at a spesific time. could also be a lux level, profile change or what else u imagine :D

    What do you mean by "When Fibaro closes the blinds"? Do you have any scene/scenario where your blinds are automatically closed?

    Or do you just mean when you press the button to close?

    How is this electric blind controlled?

  • It is closed by either remote or fibaro or Google all controlled by a bridge, I have had that when i have told google to close my kitchen blind it says that closing all blinds and when my theatre room window is open it binds up on it and damaged the blind. So would like to have it so when that window is open that it will not close that blind regardless. Thanks

    How is the blind then connected and bound to your HC3? Do you use a Fibaro Rollershutter2/3 or anything else?

     

    If you use a Fibaro RS2/3 you can create a Lua Scene to set the protection of the blind.

    If not, I don't know how you could realize it.

     

    With this scene you will set the remote protection when opening the window and reset it when closing the window.

     

    As condition you have this:

    {
      conditions = { {
          id = XXX,
          isTrigger = true,
          operator = "==",
          property = "value",
          type = "device",
          value = false
        }, {
          id = XXX,
          isTrigger = true,
          operator = "==",
          property = "value",
          type = "device",
          value = true
        } },
      operator = "any"
    }

    Replace the XXX with your ID of your D/W Sensor.

     

    And this as actions:

     
    if sourceTrigger.value == false then
        hub.call(tonumber(blindID), "setProtection", 0, 0--closed window
    elseif sourceTrigger.value == true then
        hub.call(tonumber(blindID), "setProtection", 0, 1--opened window
    end

    blindID is the device ID of your RS2/3.

     

    With this you will set the remote protection of the blind, so no automatic scene etc. will drive this device.
