Control motorized interior window coverings with Z-Wave

Somfy offers an easiest way to integrate motorized interior and exterior stuff into your home automation system using its ILT Z-Wave interface . The interface allows a simple connection to the ILT 2-way communicating motor head and can be setup in less than a minute. After that you may control roller/solar, pleated/cellular, 2-inch horizontal blinds, sheer horizontals and roman/woven shades from touchscreen console, remote control or keypad via Z-Wave. Z-Wave is supported by many commercial and open source smarthome systems (LinuxMCE is one of them). The Somfy ILT Z-Wave interface will be suitable and for home theaters to roll up/out projector’s screen. Unfortunately I didn’t found any information about the price of the Somfy ILT Z-Wave interface and availability for Europe. If you have such information or maybe know the same device from other producer, please, drop the comment. [via Mavromatic ]
