Blinds with controllers?????

[smith.wesj]

So im kind of new to this and could use a little guidance. Im sure this is a stupid question for mini so if you could just help me out with some examples. Im looking to automate some blinds in my new home. I would have to use z-wave. Im having trouble figuring what battery operated motorized blinds will work with what battery operated controller.

motorized rolling shutters

I know nothing about home automation, but a friend suggested I purchase HS control system to control the motorized rolling shutters on all the windows of my country house. They are controlled via a remote control. What do I need to control them using HS control system

Blinds with controllers:reply

hi,
i do what you want with my blinds.
i bought automotive vent motors from allelectronics.com $3.98 ea.
the roller blinds fit right into the shaft.
i control them with applied digital relay modules, an ocelot and lightbobcat.
they open and close according to outside light level, fully automatic.
i hav'ent pulled a blind down in about 5 years.
you will have to run some wiring, ask a friend to help you.
ocelot about $150, relay module about $80, lightbobcat about $70.
programming is not to hard to learn.
i really like homeseer as a frontend (gui).
but applied digital is rock solid, no worrys about malware or virius.
ocelot controls everything in my home, hvac,heating,lighting,security.
i think you should plan a system that works all the time,without internet access.
because if you are like the rest of us, you will keep adding and adding things to your system.
hope this helps.
