Pre-start Checklist

For a seamless set up, please ensure:

• All Somfy (RTS and Zigbee) motors and compatible equipment are fully charged.
• Somfy RTS motor set-up is complete - pair remote controls, set motor end-limits and 'my' position.
• Your internet router is active and operational (TaHoma® switch only operates with 2.4GHz (4G) WiFi).
• WiFi network must be private/secured with a password.
• An active email address to create a TaHoma® switch account is required. It cannot be the same email address used with an existing Connexoon Window RTS.
• Ensure you have downloaded and setup an account with all 3rd party compatible applications on your smart device.
• For Zigbee devices, have your motor and Ysia control QR code ready, prior to pairing your Zigbee motor, TaHoma® switch and motor limit settings.
• Installation tip for building Zigbee mesh network: for a seamless setup, pair any plugs/wired Zigbee motors first. Then setup WireFree Zigbee motors, followed by any remotes.
