Homekit curtain roller/shutter %

I have Legrand Valena Next curtain roller but I’m not able to control the opening/closing percentage from HomeKit or the native app. Is it in development or any beta that I could get access to?

is the v61 out yet?

if yes what can I do to update it?

thanks!

Hi again,

Yes, the deployment is supposed to be 100% done now. But I see it’s only for users having a gateway in the latest version (v.702, which is still under deployment)

What you could try : go in Home + Control > Manage my home > go on your gateway > click on “Configurate Wi-Fi” > re-do the Wi-Fi association. It should launch a firmware update request for your gateway and a check of firmware versions for your other devices (it can take up to 48h)

If it still doesn’t update and doesn’t fix your problem, the only solution will be to contact the Customer Support

Hi,

We have tilting shades in our house, And I am really happy with them. However there are quite some flaws.

As @wouter mentioned before, I have the same issue. If I move the shutter down and tilt them (in the app) the response takes about 50 seconds to tilt them. As a workaround, I also use 99% trick. But if I use the schedules this trick is not working the shutter stays closed without tilting. Another trick to overcome this is to schedule two actions after each other so first close the shades 100% plus close tilted then close the shades again 100% and open the tilt. between these two actions, there is a minimum time of 5 minutes. So for 5 minutes, the shades are fully closed and I am in the dark.

Every time you re-setup in home+ control app an action the level of the shades are reset to 50% and you have to redo the slide to 99%. Very annoying.

Would it be possible to improve this behavior and immediately titlt the shades after they are moved down 100%?

Additionally, a new function is proposed by e.g. clicking quickly twice down (physical button) the shades move down and tilt the shutter immediately after being closed.

 

Thank you,

RS

 

 

 

Hello Richard,

As I said to Wouter, the best is to contact directly the Customer Support of your country. They’ll be able to have more information

Hello Rafael,

Sorry for the delay in my anwser

Unfortunatly no, there is no API provided by us to communicate locally with a Magellan (Legrand/Bticino) gateway. A solution for a local interoperability could be to use the ZigBee 3.0 compatibility mode (https://developer.legrand.com/local-interoperability/#How%20it%20works). But of course you’ll have to integrate your end-devices to a Z3.0 hub but it will not be possible to use the Magellan gateway as a hub

<p data-start=”90″ data-end=”102″>Hi Leslie,</p><p data-start=”104″ data-end=”185″>Thanks for your reply and for sharing the ZigBee 3.0 compatibility mode option.</p><p data-start=”187″ data-end=”460″>The main reason we are aiming for a <strong data-start=”223″ data-end=”244″>local integration is system stability and, most importantly, real-time <strong data-start=”298″ data-end=”317″>status feedback.
