The new RS 485 RTS transmitter brings wireless control of Somfy powered blinds, curtains, screens and lifts to your home automation set-up.  With motorists already available to interface to Crestron, AMX and control 4 smart home systems, the unit is capable of managing up to 16 groups or individual blinds.  read on for the full PR.

“The Somfy RS 485 range uses a detailed variety of motorised options for the custom-made installer. With both wired and wireless options available, the products have the adaptability required to manage all Somfy applications in a home automation environment.

The new RS 485 RTS Transmitter is the ideal option for wireless control of Somfy powered blinds, curtains, screens and lifts. capable of interfacing with major 3rd party control systems such as Crestron, AMX and control 4 who have all developed their own motorists for ease of integration. The unit is easy to install and commission and is capable of managing up to 16 groups of Somfy RTS motorised products (curtains, Venetian blinds, roller shades awnings etc) individually or as a group. The unit has five dry contact input ports as an additional control option.

Other products included in the range are the Somfy RS485 4ILT interface which can control up to four Somfy ILT motors and supply bi-directional communication for best alignment and exact blind positioning. The RS 485 ILT interface is also compatible with all universal infrared remote controls, can control motors individually and has the option to create eight different scenes.  the current product, which will be launched later this year, is the new Sonesse™ 30 RS 485 quiet drive motor. This is an intelligent motor created for powering a range of interior blind and screen applications. some of the crucial features of the Sonesse™ 30 RS 485 motor include bi-directional serial communication with third party control systems by means of RS 485, the ability to supply 16 intermediate positions, feedback for exact motor position for exact control from third party systems and also rated at 44 dBa to supply quiet operation.

“The launch of 485 RTS Transmitter must make Somfy products the first-choice for custom-made installers trying to find competitively priced motorised blinds and screens,” says Charlotte Townend, Market manager at Somfy. “The ability to integrate Somfy powered options with third party control systems is a great feature that will be welcomed by custom-made installers, and by those seeking to fully exploit the potential for motorisation. Our large range of options will deliver an installation using high functionality for the client,that is feature-rich with in-built reliability and high performance.”

One of the crucial benefits of the Somfy options is comfort for the end-user. using homeowners complete control over all of the applications in their home, from the ability to instantly check which curtains are drawn open or closed, whether screens are up, down or in a much-loved position, awnings are retracted, all at the touch of a button – from anywhere in the property. This centralised control is the cornerstone of Somfy home Motion.
