The `rflink` cover platform supports devices that use [RFLink gateway firmware](http://www.nemcon.nl/blog2/), for example, the [Nodo RFLink Gateway](https://www.nodo-shop.nl/nl/21-rflink-gateway). RFLink gateway is an Arduino firmware that allows two-way communication with a multitude of RF wireless devices using cheap hardware (Arduino + transceiver).
|
|
|
|
First, you have to set up your [rflink hub](/components/rflink/).
|
|
|
|
After configuring the RFLink hub covers will be automatically discovered and added. Except the Somfy RTS devices.
|
|
|
|
### {% linkable_title Setting up a Somfy RTS device %}
|
|
|
|
You have to add the Somfy RTS manually with the supplied RFlinkLoader (Windows only).
|
|
|
|
Press the Learn button on the original Somfy remote enter the following code within 3 seconds. Your blinds will go up and down shortly:
|
|
|
|
````
|
|
10;RTS;02FFFF;0412;3;PAIR;
|
|
````
|
|
|
|
Your blinds will go up and down again. This means your Rflink is now paired with your RTS motor.
|
|
To check this enter the following code again and see if there is a record.
|
|
|
|
````
|
|
10;RTSSHOW;
|
|
````
|
|
````
|
|
RTS Record: 0 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|
RTS Record: 1 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|
RTS Record: 2 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|
RTS Record: 3 Address: 02FFFF RC: 0018
|
|
RTS Record: 4 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
After configuring the RFLink Somfy RTS you have to add the cover to the `configuration.yaml` file like any other RFlink device.
|
|
|
|
RFLink cover ID's are composed of: protocol, id, and gateway. For example: `RTS_0100F2_0`.
|
|
|
|
Once the ID of a cover is known, it can be used to configure the cover in Home Assistant, for example, to add it to a different group, hide it or set a nice name.
|
|
|
|
Assigning a name to a cover:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
cover:
|
|
- platform: rflink
|
|
devices:
|
|
RTS_0100F2_0:
|
|
name: SunShade
|
|
bofumotor_455201_0f:
|
|
name: Sovrumsgardin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **automatic_add** (*Optional*): Automatically add new/unconfigured devices to Home Assistant if detected (default: True).
|
|
- **devices** (*Optional*): A list of devices with their name to use in the frontend.
|
|
- **device_defaults**: (*Optional*)
|
|
- **fire_event** (*Optional*): Set default `fire_event` for Rflink switch devices (see below).
|
|
- **signal_repetitions** (*Optional*): Set default `signal_repetitions` for Rflink switch devices (see below).
|
|
|
|
Device configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **name** (*Optional*): Name for the device, defaults to Rflink ID.
|
|
- **aliases** (*Optional*): Alternative Rflink ID's this device is known by.
|
|
- **fire_event** (*Optional*): Fire a `button_pressed` event if this device is turned on or off (default: False).
|
|
- **signal_repetitions** (*Optional*): Repeat every Rflink command this number of times (default: 1).
|
|
- **fire_event_** (*Optional*): Set default `fire_event` for RFLink switch devices (see below).
|
|
- **signal_repetitions** (*Optional*): Set default `signal_repetitions` for RFLink switch devices (see below).
|
|
- **group** (*Optional*): Allow light to respond to group commands (ALLON/ALLOFF). (default: yes)
|
|
- **group_aliases** (*Optional*): `aliases` which only respond to group commands.
