Blind control

There are many ways to control blinds. Finding the right solution for your facility can be difficult. In this guide, we'll explain what options are available and help you make a purchasing decision. It doesn't matter whether you need a button for your existing control or are planning a blind control with high-end devices: In our online shop we offer you the complete range of products and solutions for your individual project ideas. In the eibabo® shop you will find high-quality products from leading manufacturers such as Peha, Jung, SOMFY, Schalk, Gira, Busch-Jaeger, Berker, Elso, Merten, Siemens, Warema Sonnen, Doepke and Rademacher.

 


TIP:

Plan the controls for your blind carefully. The choice of controller type is important and affects the day-to-day operation of your facility.


 

In addition, numerous control options can influence other parameters of your building and its automation. These include, for example:

  • the management of heating, ventilation and cooling
  • the energy consumption
  • the fire protection
  • the security system
  • and some more

 

An intelligently planned and installed blind control contributes to comfort, security and energy efficiency. Connected sensors assume important comfort and safety functions. Some examples:

  • Blinds, roller shutters and awnings can be controlled depending on the light using brightness sensors or twilight sensors.
  • Precipitation sensors and wind sensors can automatically retract or raise awnings or shutters when the weather changes.
  • Sensors for open doors support you in the implementation of lock-out protection.

 

Once you know what you value, you can determine the optimal type of control. Manual control by hand is the simplest variant. This is the cheapest, not very convenient and offers no possibility for automation. With a wired blind control, you have convenient control options using buttons or switches (also with sensor evaluation). If you instead rely on an electronic blind control, you will benefit from time-dependent control options. You can also automate the daily operation of your blinds and shutters or simulate a presence. You can conveniently control your blinds with a blind control via radio. Complex installations can be avoided with wireless solutions. In addition, a radio blind control is an enormous gain in comfort: You can remotely control blinds, roller shutters or awnings with radio control buttons and radio hand-held transmitters.

Wired control via switches and buttons

The classic method of controlling blinds is to connect the motor cable directly to a switch. This gives you the option of moving the system up or down and influencing the opening. There are no other options. With this setup you control a single motor with a switch or button. This contact closure control can also be used for basic hardwired switching. This enables, for example, control via an alarm system, a fire protection installation or a building management system. To control multiple motors, you need to expand the installation.

The use of relays

Using a motor relay (disconnect relay) you can control multiple blinds from one switch. Group controls and individual controls are possible. The number of inputs on a standard relay determines the amount of individual or grouped motors that you can connect to the relay. Other functions are also possible with relays. Some relays have additional inputs. A classic safety function is the fire alarm. A signal on the relay's fire alarm input overrides all other controls. This allows blinds to be opened or closed automatically as soon as a fire alarm is triggered. Some relays are equipped with potential-free contacts for connection to a home automation or building management system.

radio control

Alternatively, you can connect a radio remote controlled motor to a power source. Radio-controlled motors can be controlled using wireless wall switches or a remote control. If you want to operate each blind individually, you can use a separate controller for each motor.

Electronic blind control

With motor control via digital building management, you are absolutely flexible. Each motor has its own address within the network, regardless of the type of wiring. This makes your system fit for any adjustment or change in the future. For example, imagine dividing your parents' house into two residential units for the children. This may require some windows to be regrouped. You can easily change the switch positions for these particular blinds in software without having to physically rewire the building. You can use blind control to improve the energy efficiency of the house. In conjunction with sensors on the window, you can, for example, have the blinds opened or closed automatically. This means that daylight can be used optimally and electricity can be saved. The heat conditions caused by solar radiation also fluctuate throughout the day. Use automation to ensure a constant temperature. Use the sensors of a weather station with an astro function to automatically control the position of the sun on the blinds according to your geographical orientation or to ensure the slats are protected against ice.

Use digital assistance

There are numerous building automation devices that are compatible with your blinds and other devices in your home. These can be connected to digital assistants such as Amazon's Alexa, Google Assistant. This makes it possible to control the blinds using voice commands.


Another option is to link the blind control with other automatisms in the building. For example, blinds can be closed depending on the activated alarm system or opened in the event of a fire alarm. The possibilities are manifold. All this increases comfort and improves the quality of life.
