Roller Shutter Stop command

Open thomas-kaltenbach opened this issue 5 years ago • 8 comments

Hi Alex,

I am using Shelly2.5 for roller shutter. More precisely it is an external blind (raffstore).

For the control of the roller I would expect that when I tap on the tile it starts to close and when I tap again it stop. But in my case it switchs directly from close to open.

Do you know if I can influence the behavior somewhere?

I have the latest homebridge, homebridge-shelly and firmware installed.

Thanks and regards, Thomas

That doesn't seem to be possible in the Apple Home app. Maybe you can find another HomeKit app that has that behaviour? It's not something that can be controlled from this plugin unfortunately.

At the moment it switches directly from opening to closing... Is it not possible to implement such handling:

RollerShutter is Opend->(tap on tile)->Closing->(tap on tile during closing)->STOP the same for RollerShutter is Closed->(tap on tile)->Opening->(tap on tile during closing)->STOP

Or is this state Closing not known durning the handling and only shown at the tile?

I can’t control the commands sent from the Home app. The only info this plugin receives when the user controls the roller shutter from the Home app is a position between 0 and 100, where 0 means completely closed and 100 means completely open. There really isn’t any way to deduce the user’s intent from this number.

Actually, there’s another Shelly plug-in for Homebridge intended for the shutter function only. It passes the stop command from the Shelly app to Homebridge. It is not usable in HomeKit, but the Eve app exposes the stop command and it can be assigned to a HomeKit enabled button/switch (physical on the wall). Is there a way for you to implement this stop command, as well? Would be brilliant!

Is there any progress with this issue? It's really frustrating that I can't stop the shutter ...

Hey guys. Just installed a Shelly 2.5 with a shutter and experienced the same problem. The button does only Open and Close. ☹️

as far as I can tell, there has not been a change in how Apple HomeKit works. Therefore it is not possible to change this behaviour. I simply solve it by setting the roller position manually 🤷

There is a mongoose fw for shelly for homekit integration. It has the separate-toggle mode. And it just works. Click (going down), click (stop), click (going up), etc..
