IKEA Tradfri and HomeSeer -> TrådfriSeer!

[acromion]

Ikea now has a line of blinds that can be controlled by Tradfri. Any support for this in the plugin?

[Moskus]

perhaps it is using the wrong id?
ths curtain instead of the remote?

No, I don't think so. That's how it works using deConz too.

As far as I can see, it should behave like a bulb.

I know, but it doesn't work

I own a Fyrtur but can't see it in the plugin.
Is this correct that the Fyrtur doesn't work with the plugin or do i something wrong?

[Broes]

It will be end August.
Batteries will be charged via usb. How long the blinds will last on one charge I can't find.

They should be released in Europe during "this summer", but who knows exactly when that will be. US release this fall, I think. (And they are Zigbee, not Z-wave)

Thanks for the info, and now I'm glad I orderer both interfaces (Zigbee and Z-Wave for both of my units)! Future proofing

I've skipped ahead, for forgive me if I missed it.

IKEA has been working on their motorized Z-Wave or Zigbee shades for a while and I've been waiting to see if they have dropped and if anyone has any input on them, their price (per foot, sq/cm) and battery life?

Yes, if you look at the last two pages, there's been some problems. It has been suggested to try to set up the plugin again (reset the credentials, etc, or even try to delete "TradfriSeer.ini"). My in-laws are using this plugin extensively, and I've had no problem with their setup.

I suspect that Tradfri has done something during the last update that TradfriSeer does not like. I just have a hard time figuring out what. The empty response on path /15001 means that the plugin can't read from the hub because the hub is not authenticating the plugin (or the IP address is wrong).

My own Tradfri box is still hidden in a box somewhere, we are currently rebuilding the house.
