Hi,
In the apartment I moved in are already Somfy blinds installed.
Now I want to connect them to my other devices.
For this I want to use the “Somfy Tahoma” integration.
However the “Somfy Connectivity Kit” is much cheaper than the “Tahoma Switch”.
According their webpage it features io - RTS - WLAN while the Tahoma offers also Zigbee.
Any experience with the Somfy Connectivity Kit and Nymea?
I reached out to Somfy to see if they have any plans to add support for the local API, but they haven’t replied yet. I assume this is something they reserve for the more expensive offering.
Meanwhile I’ve been using the following workaround (using Homebridge) to set up communication between Homekit (which is supported by the Connectivity Kit) and Nymea, to be able to control the blinds from Nymea (but it isn’t the prettiest solution):
That means the easier option is going for the expensive tahoma.
With this I should be able also to connect to Zigbee devices as I see it however as well.
