Elero JA Comfort-868 Venetian Blinds Incorrectly Recognized as Shutters - Need Precise Lamel Control


Question

Posted

Hello Yubee Community,

I'm hoping someone can shed some light on how to get my venetian blinds working correctly with Yubee.

Currently, my Elero JA Comfort-868 drivers are being recognized as standard shutters within the system.

This means I only have access to basic Open/Close/Stop commands, which is typical for shutters but doesn't allow for the precise lamel adjustments that venetian blinds offer.

Ideally, I'd like to be able to set the exact tilt angle of the lamels for optimal light and privacy control.

Previously, I was using an NX Centero Home system.

While it did offer more granular control over the blind movements, the software was quite unreliable, integration possibilities were non-existent, and support was lacking.

This is why I've recently switched to Yubee, which seems like a step in the right direction overall.

However, I'm still encountering this issue with the incorrect device recognition, and I'm also noticing some other strange behaviors that might be related.

 

Could anyone advise on the following:

  • Is there a specific device type or configuration I need to select within Yubee for Elero JA Comfort-868 venetian blinds?
  • Are there any specific parameters or settings I need to adjust for this driver to enable lamel control?
  • Has anyone else experienced a similar issue with Elero venetian blinds or other devices being misidentified? If so, what was the solution?

Any guidance or suggestions you can offer would be greatly appreciated! I'm eager to fully integrate my venetian blinds into my Yubee smart home setup.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello,

Those blinds does not support direct control of opening or tilting (for specific %), so it is not possible to add as a support in Yubii.
If you change the role to "venetian blind" then you will get additional 2 buttons for controlling slats in steps, you can also configure 2nd favorite position which is responsible for slats angle control (it is not an absolute position, its time of up movement which can rotate the slats as much as you can from current position).

It is the best you can get from those motors.
