Beo 6 and Thomas Sanderson blinds

5 replies

Hello,

I am looking to install some motorised blinds and understand from TS they accept an RF signal.

Is it possible to use BEO 6 to control these? Has anyone done this successfully before and are there any interesting articles here that any active user remembers / or could direct me to?

Many thanks for any help. 

Do the blinds come with a remote control when you buy them?

According to Thomas Sanderson website pictures they buy in Somfy automation. They do have a range of controls and remotes and more than just blinds to offer. You may get more sense from their technical department than from Thomas Sanderson.

There are plenty of outlets that sell these so you are not tied to Thomas Sanderson for supply.
