Has anyone successfully link the driver to Google Home?
I have done the following:
It works perfectly with Amazon Echo Skill app though
D'oh! sorry I totally missed it.
I wonder why it uses Curtain, instead of Blind? consider Blinds will allow you to change its height.
Unpairing, resetting, and re-pairing seems to have fixed the problem. I had to reverse the direction and never saw the updateDirection: line in logs, but... it worked.
I also suddenly lost control over the other device - Dining Room Blinds 2. Didn't know what to make of that, but I removed/reset/repaired it and now it's working fine. Thanks!
Next question. I'm trying to create devices that can control multiple shades and I did what you had suggested. I have two rules configured as below. Main problems I see with this are two: (1) When I open/close the device, there is a delay before the blinds open/close. (2) (more annoying), the individual blinds and the overall blinds control do not sync. I.e. if the individual blinds are closed, the overall control does not read as closed - i have to close it again manually. Any suggests for fixing this so the virtual shades device gives correct updated information on the blinds position? Let's assume I want the virtual shades device to read as "open" if either of them are open, and "closed" if both are closed.
Thanks in advance,
I seem to be having some issues with my Zemismart AM43.
I can do a set position, but nothing other than that.
The positions are set and works as expected.
This is what I get when trying to, well anything other than setPosition:

I'm also getting this one regularly:

But it doesn't work well on the nylon cord that draws the blinds open.
Does anyone know of a similar device that works with Hubitat that can handle the smooth nylon cords that draw blinds open and closed?
Make sure you have set maxClosedPosition in the preferences and click save preferences.
Mine works fine with a nylon cord. Make sure you are using the right spinner. Refer to the instructions for which spinner to use. Also make sure it's tight enough.
I was set, probably by default to max close = 1 and max open = 99
I changed the values to 2 and 98 and saved.
It’s seems to be working, but I’m not at home at the moment, so I will update when I’ve checked.
It doesn't do anything useful.
Still can't use open, close, step or start position change.
I tried all four spinners. They each had the same problem - either they did not grip the cord well enough, or they gripped it too much and would not release the cord causing both sides of the cord to loop around the spinner.
Hello friends, I am going to buy this device for my blinds, do I need your zigbee hub, or does it integrate with he directly?
No other hub needed. Can connect directly to Hubitat.
Is there an updated link for this? The link currently doesn't go anywhere.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here? Once again I have a fresh AM 43 device installed, set the upper and lower limits, paired to my Hubitat, set the up/down direction buttons properly, and once again the Open/Close buttons in Hubitat do the reverse of what I want. I change the direction to reverse, save, click "configure" and wait a while. Now the open/close buttons do nothing.
This was after reseting and repairing and redoing everything.
I have a feeling this falls in the DOH! section, but will this integration work with Zemismart products like this one found on Amazon? Or is this specific to their rope motor control?
@amosyuen or @rlithgow1 could I trouble you or any other kind soul for setup advice again?
I've installed three of these AM43 Blind Drive Motors so far, and while the third one was a bit of a rocky start with me having to uninstall/unpair and repair it before I got it to work, it worked ultimately.
Now I have a fourth one of these devices and despite removing/resetting/repairing it several times, I can't get it to work properly.
Specifically, in Dashboard (using the Shades tile) and in the device page it keeps saying "Opening" even though the blinds are fully closed. When I open them using the slider in dashboard, it says "Closing" then it says "Opening" but it never says "Open" despite it being fully open. Nor does it say "Closed" when it is fully closed.
In addition to this, it doesn't respond to rules that I have setup to open or close the blinds at certain times, which do work with other AM43 devices that I already installed.
The last time this happened, I had to remove, reset, and repair it. But I've done that twice now and the problem persists.
I've attached a screenshot of the device configuration page and the log which shows what happens when the blinds are closed and I open them, then what happens when they are open and I close them.
Any insight greatly appreciated. Even if I'm doing something stupid....
Did you set its limits on the device itself?
Yes, that's always the first thing I do before I pair it.
hmm, no idea then. Usually I only see it when its not stop configured. If you refresh the device page does it continue to show opening after it's stopped?
