USAGE
To connect your MOTION devices to Homey, you must have a WIFI bridge in your home network that can control up to 30 different blinds. The bridge is configured with the blinds you need by using the official MOTION Blinds app. Homey communicates with one or more of these bridges to control the devices connected to them. You can also link the blinds to a remote. Note that remotes are a useful addition to MOTION devices but cannot be added directly to the bridge or Homey. The remote controls the blind directly, and the blind reports what is happening back to the bridge and Homey.
In order for Homey to be allowed to send commands to the bridge, it needs a key. The key can be configured in the Homey MOTION app settings. You will find instructions there on how to obtain the key.
AVAILABILITY
ROBB Smarrt is a quality home brand of ROBBshop.nl. It features various MOTION Blinds products, among which is a MOTION motor that can be applied to almost any existing rollerblind. Simply remove the original chain control, insert the rechargeable motor in the original rollerblind tube and mount the blind using the provided materials. The end result is almost impossible to differentiate from a normal, non-motorized rollerblind.
What you need to get started is the Rollerblind motor, the Wifi bridge and optionally the Remote.
