I did some testing on this once I got back to my office and it appears a remote is required to set up the limits for the motor. I don’t see a way to get past the requirement to long hold the up/down/stop buttons as required in these instructions: Pairing
Hi all, does this allow for 2 way communication between bond and rollease devices so that it knows the position?
Last I saw, bidirectional communication was not supported.
This was in response to a question about ARC motors, but I believe it holds true for all:
That being said, I believe with certain brands (Somfy and Rollease), you do have a SetPosition command / slider available if you have a Bond Bridge Pro. Not sure if that implementation, like many other Bond device strategies, then requires you to no longer use the original remote? I do not yet have Shade type devices to get familiar with this area of Bond.
API For Shade Position
I don’t know if you’re still struggling with this. I just got 12 blinds using the Dooya 2700AC remote and trying to use with a Bond Bridge.
Immediately I struck out adding them as new blinds aside from the occasional time it works for 10-20s and then stops working.
I then added them as a fan instead of a blind and hey presto, I have now added four blinds and they are all working.
No idea why this would be the case, but I’m going to roll with it and do the rest of them, and hope they continue to work…
Good luck
