Serial control for BLINDS or SHUTTERS

Hi all,


Recently I have being trying in using a Somfy interfase that works with radiofrecuency motors, Of course Somfy motors. These interfase has a RS 232 port and I can connect it to a PAC. This PAC unit should have written code for the serial connection between the interfase and the motors I'm trying to control.
Can any body help me with the code in order to make this function?

So far I have written this code.


openserial (1,4,4800,8,1,0,1);{Enter Initialisation code here}
abrir := #254;
cerrar :=#23;


readserial (1,s,' ');
repeat
posicionactual := posicionrequerida;

writeserial (1,abrir);
until (posicionactual = posicionrequerida);

 

You will need to provide us with the serial protocol for us to be able to help.

The code in each logic module must complete (or have a delay) within 100ms. You can not have a repeat loop which takes a long time to execute like this appears to.

 

Write serial to somfy RTS Transmitter

Hey Guys,

Im trying to transmit to a somfy transmitter for wireless blind control, i have no trouble with working out strings required, i have been using a terminal software to test strings and connecting lead. With great success

But now i wish to use schedule plus on the same computer, using the same com port and connecting lead. But i'm unable to get it to work.

This is the code i've written,

{Constant}

U1CH1UP = '$7F$F2$FA$FE$FF$FF$3D$78$FA$FD$FB$09$0E';


{Initialisation}

OpenSerial(1, 1, 4800, 8, 1, scNoFlowControl, scOddParity);


{Module}

once (GetLightingState("Somfy U1CH1UP") = ON) then
begin
WriteSerial (1, U1CH1UP);
end;

and attached is a screen shot of comms settings and working string

Can anyone see where i'm going Wrong?

Cheers Baz
