How can i controle the window blinds with my shelly plusi4

  • Hi,

    I am not only new to the community, but also new to relays etc. yesterday i received my shelly plus i4 (2x) from amazon. I bought them to be able to automate the blinds (2x). These are already electric, but have a switch (up and down) . I want to keep the switch, but also have the ability to close the blinds when i am not home or at a specific time. Does anyone have a scheme or a link to start my journey.?

  • Hi Darryl,

    welcome to the German Shelly Forum 😉.

    The physical wiring you can find here

    The i4 is the remote (http Webhooks) for the Shelly 2 or 2PM only.

    1. connect your blinds with the 2PM and calibrate the end-positions

    2. install the i4 with pushbuttons and configure your Webhooks. A lot of examples you can find here

    And where is the problem?

    Buy the right Shelly to control the shutter. With the I4 you can then control the ShellyPlus2PM by switch where you want (position of the switch).

    And via internet you control the ShellyPlus2PM directly via the app.
