Zigbee switch for roller blind

Hello

I have wire controlled roller blind in my home and want to automate them.
All light siwtched currently come from Schneider electric (Odace range), so i would like something with the same look.
Schneider sells both basic switch (not smart) to which I could add a zigbee control module and a smart zigbee switch: Schneider .Odace - switch - roller blind - for Wiser - white S520567W

I'm trying to find out if the smart version would work with HE. It is not in the list of supported devices (nothing for this brand is supported). Schenider sell their own proprietary hub and say their devices cannot be controlled by another hub (meaning they have not tested).
If anyone has info on real compatibility I would be interested

The alternative of using a non smart switch and adding a zigbee module for curtains would work fine. I have 10 blinds, so I don't want to spend a fortune. Fibaro devices cost 50-60€, that seems very pricy compared for instance with a device from Moes ZRM-108-MS which i can get for 25€, but of course i don't know if it works with HE
Any suggestion for a cost effective zigbee modeule to control blinds?

Thanks

Is the Schneider switch this one?

or more likely this :

Yes it’s the second one ;roller blind
Although i suspect the first I e is used I side the second one
I did not know this site, it tries to reference known compatibilities it seems. Intersting.

Thanks

The PUCK/SHUTTER/1 model uses the standard Zigbee Covering cluster for open/close/stop commands, so most likely these will work with HE inbuilt "Generic Zigbee Shade" driver.

However, seems like Schneider are using a custom Zigbee command to change the default timeout for opening or closing the blinds. This time is different for every blind and must be adjusted according to the motor speed and blind length, etc.. So a custom driver will be needed in Hubitat to allow this configuration.

hello, thanks very much for your very precise and detailed answer, this is amazing.
I 'm not so happy with the content, but that's another story :slight_smile:
I guess my best option is to use a non-smart wired switch and attach a module to control it.
Any recommandation of a reasonably priced roller blind controller module (Zigbee) that would work well with Hubitat? (preferably not Fibaro as I don't understand why they are so expensive)

Thanks
