Hey everybody
Please excuse my question but I’m having trouble grasping the Somfy-integration.
I’ve been unsing HomeAssistant for well over a year with climate, light and more recently ZigBee via DresdenElectronic ConBee2+deCONZ components and am about ot get Somfy compatible rolling shutters. So first thought of course: Amazing, let’s integrate with trusty old HASS.
Now here’s the trouble, I have been unable at all to track down information on Hardware requirements. I have successfully enabled the Somfy integration via the somfy-component and the SomfyOpenAPI but nowhere does it say if and which and what kind of gateway I would need.
Is one required? What standard does Somfy use? What frequenzy are they working on? Is it WiFi 2,4gHz or more like ZigBee in the 800mHz region somewhere? Or is it its own thing? What is TaHoma? A Somfy compatible standard?
I’d highly appreciate if someone could clear some of my confusion up.
Before you ask: The folks installing the shutters didn’t know either.
Thanks in advance!
