Hello everyone,
we are currently building our single-family house with a general contractor. Our quote includes electronic roller shutters and venetian blinds. The offer also includes one switch planned for each roller shutter or venetian blind. However, we are not entirely satisfied because there is no option to lower all the roller shutters and venetian blinds at once. Currently, I see the following solutions:
1) One central switch per floor (basement, ground floor, upper floor) that lowers all the roller shutters/venetian blinds on that level. According to the electrician, this is complicated to implement and quite expensive (about 1000 euros per switch plus wiring).
2) Each roller shutter/venetian blind is equipped with an actuator (is that the correct term?), which we can control wirelessly. In other words, everything operates with switches, but I have the option to send a wireless signal to all roller shutters so they go down or up together.
3) Electric wireless drives are used (e.g., Somfy Rs 100 io). Then no wired switches would be needed for the drives. However, I would have wireless switches stuck to the whole wall. Is that really practical?
I’m sure there are clever solutions I haven’t thought of… Can you help me?

My problem is that when I access the Tahoma box via browser, I cannot find the roller shutters in the menu.
...Have you manually added the roller shutters to Tahoma yet? Are they even radio-controlled motors? I haven’t read the entire thread in detail 🙂S
Strahleman16 Apr 2021 15:15I see it the same way as @AllThumbs.
The push-buttons are bus push-buttons, and the Tahoma box is purely a radio box. As long as there is no integration of the bus system into the Tahoma or the roller shutter motors cannot be controlled separately via radio, this won't work. You might want to share the entire setup here. Then it might be possible to shed some light on the situation.

Thank you all, @AllThumbs has summarized it better than I have managed to describe over the last three pages. However, I only realized during my YouTube research that I don’t have an IO system; everything is without wireless.
What exactly do you mean by setup, @Strahleman? I have already configured the push buttons, and in addition, I have the Tahoma box and the x4 controller in the fuse box:
In addition, and this concerns me the most, I have this unused component x4:

But the actuators are both bus and wireless, right?Unfortunately, I don’t know... :/
