## Screen Layout
|
||||
The screen layout is defined below.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 1 - Network Status
|
||||
The current status of the network. The information displayed here will change depending on whether the device is connected using WiFi or hardwired ethernet.

||||
### Shades Tab
|
||||
On this tab all configured awnings, roller shades, blinds, draperies, and shutters will appear in a list. As you add more motors to your configuration this list will add one line for each configured shade motor. To edit an existing one, click the pencil icon to the left of the name you assigned to it. To delete one click the trash can icon to the right of its address.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Shade Editor Interface
|
||||
When you click either the Add Shade button or the pencil icon next to an existing shade, the screen will change to allow you to supply the attributes for the motor.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### 1 - Protocol
|
||||
The protocol determines how ESPSomfy RTS talks to your motor. If the frequency is the same for all the motors you can mix and match the spoken protocols for the motor. The available options include
|
||||
* RTS - Standard protocol for Somfy branded motors.
|
||||
* RTW - This protocol has shown up in Europe under ASA Motors brand.
|
||||
* RTV - Protocol variant where the motors are stamped to operate at 433.92Mhz.
|
||||
|
||||
#### 2 - Bit Length
|
||||
Somfy RTS remotes with step wheels often use an 80-bit protocol for the step wheel. If you select this option, a step wheel timing option will also become available. The timing for the steps are determined by the movement over the up or down timing.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### 3 - Type
|
||||
The type of motor determines the options that are configurable on the motor. For instance, blinds often have tilt capabilities and awnings add the ability for Sun/Wind sensors. The icons in ESPSomfy RTS will change to indicate their type.
|
||||
* Roller Shade - Flat fabric cover which moves up and down by rolling the fabric on a roller that spans the width of the cover opening.
|
||||
* Shutter - Shutters are a different type of roller consisting of interlocking solid panels. Often this type of cover is used for security where the left and right sides of the cover are secured.
|
||||
* Blind - Adds tilt timing and mechanism functions to a standard roller shade.
|
||||
* Drapery - Where the motor is mounted on the left or right to draw a curtain.
|
||||
* Awning - Horizontal movement mechanism. Adds Sun/Wind sensor functions.
|
||||
|
||||
#### 4 - Remote Address
|
||||
A unique identifier for the reference of the motor in ESPSomfy RTS. All remote addresses within the area of the shades must be unique and should not change after it has been paired with the motor. If you want to change this value after it has been paired you should first un-pair it, change it, then pair it again. ESPSomfy RTS will generate a unique address for all motors that is unique no matter how many ESPSomfy RTS devices you have built.
|
||||
|
||||
#### 5 - Name
|
||||
Up to 20 character name for your motor.
|
||||
|
||||
#### 6 - Up/Down Timings
|
||||
Represents how long it takes for full travel of the cover for up and down operations in milliseconds. 10 seconds = 10000 milliseconds. The maximum value equates to around 54 days if you have turtles turning your motor.
|
||||
|
||||
#### 7 - Invert Commands
|
||||
If the up button on your remote closes your shade, blind, awning, or shutter, click this box to continue to this silliness. Or you can perform the recommended procedure from your motor manual to change the direction of the motor.
|
||||
|
||||
#### 8 - Invert Position
|
||||
This will change the ESPSomfy RTS display to represent the positions in percentage of open instead of percentage of closed. It's weird to me but if you can't wrap your head around percentage of closed, check this box, I'll only judge you a little bit. I'll bet your nose runs and your feet smell instead of the more logical feet running and nose smelling.
|
||||
|
||||
#### 9 - Tilt Type
|
||||
This option only appears if the type is Blind.
|
||||
* None - No tilt mechanism exists on the blind
|
||||
* Integrated - Integrated tilt mechanisms use a single motor for both tilt and lift. These mechanisms will tilt the slats to full open before raising the blind and tilt the slats to full closed before lowering the blind.
|
||||
* Tilt Motor - A separate motor is installed in the blind hardware that uses long presses on the remote buttons to tilt the slats.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### 10 - Tilt Time
|
||||
This option only appears when the motor type is Blind and the tilt type is either Integrated or Tilt Motor. The tilt time is the amount of time it takes for the tilt mechanism to go from fully open to fully closed. Unlike the up and down (lift) movement the timing is typically the same for open and closed given the way the mechanisms are constructed.
