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:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
10;RTSSHOW;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
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
|
|
RTS Record: 5 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|
RTS Record: 6 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|
RTS Record: 7 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|
RTS Record: 8 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|
RTS Record: 9 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|
RTS Record: 10 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|
RTS Record: 11 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|
RTS Record: 12 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|
RTS Record: 13 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|
RTS Record: 14 Address: FFFFFF RC: FFFF
|
|
RTS Record: 15 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:
