For one, it can only be used with Somfy Motors that support RTS communication. There are some downsides associated with the Somfy ZRSTi. We also appreciate the fact that the Somfy ZRSTi is nice and compact, meaning that it won't take up too much space in your home or business. From there, you can actually program the Somfy ZRSTi with up to 16 Z-Wave slots (aka Nodes) on your Z-Wave controller to allow for individual control for each motor used with the ZRSTi module. The module can simultaneously connect with up to 16 different Somfy Curtain Motors that use RTS communication. For one, it integrates nicely with nearly any Z-Wave controller or hub, including most security systems that support Z-Wave. There are many things we like about the Somfy ZRSTi. Since this device provides a useful function that is matched by few other devices, we have no issue giving the Somfy ZRSTi a 5-Star rating. Still, this is a rare example of a Z-Wave device that can be used to open and close your blinds or other window coverings. The unit does not allow for partial closing. When using the Somfy ZRSTi, you can only have the window coverings fully opened or fully closed. The ZRSTi can convert this RTS signal to Z-Wave and vice-versa so that your Z-Wave controller can communicate with your Somfy Curtain Motor. It uses Radio Technology Somfy (RTS) to wirelessly control the compatible motors for shades, blinds, and curtains. The Somfy ZRSTi is a Z-Wave shade controller. The grouping and pairing process can be found in the setup guide. Each node corresponds to an individual or a group of RTS motorized shades. The ZRTSi module requires AC power and will control 16 Z-Wave nodes. Just keep this in mind before integrating your shade motors into any automated scenes. The good news is the status of the motor reports live so you can view status and toggle accordingly. We hope this will change as the technology improves. In other words, the current Honeywell and 2GIG compatible automation controllers do not have a way to keep the shade partially open/closed via Z-Wave. Currently, this controller offers discrete "open" or "close" commands. The technology is somewhat new and has a lot to improve on.
The Z-Wave protocol has a wide range of hubs and controllers that make it easy to remotely control and configure automated scenes, rules and schedules! Honeywell and 2GIG manufactured alarm systems and automation controllers with Z-Wave functionality. The release of the ZRSTi means fully wireless, end to end shade control for any Z-Wave user. Generally, integrating Somfy motors meant bulky wiring and customized programming. If you have existing hardwired Sonesse 50 ILT2 (AC) motor and Sonesse 30 RS485 (DC) motors you should check out the Somfy ZDMI interface module. This product is essentially a translator that bridges the RTS signal to Z-Wave. Somfy offers the widest selection of indoor and outdoor window covering motors on the market. Somfy's RTS (Radio Technology Somfy® ) is a wireless technology which allows users to control motors for shades, blinds and other window coverings. The Somfy ZRSTi is a 16 channel window covering controller.
