Control 24v blinds

We are working on a project with Homeworks QS lighting and have some 24v windows that need controlling. The client would like a button on the Lutron plate to open and close them.

Has anyone come across this before and/or could advise the best solution for control.

Previously we used a 4M-D to control a DPDT relay with a 230v coil to changeover the 24v to open/close windows?

I’m hoping there is a simpler solution, maybe a 3rd party interface or something that would make everything more compact and less messy.

Thanks in advance

I had the opposite problem here in the US. A client bought some motorized windows from Germany that used 230vac, single phase. I bought a "travel" power supply that converted 120v to 230. The windows had controllers with CCIs.

The point of that riveting story is: is there a controller that you can interface with (RS232, CC, etc.), or is it just supplying 24v to one terminal to open, another terminal to close?

Hi @RANDYC

To open and close the windows the polarity must be reversed otherwise I could of used a QSE-I0 to drive some relays/contractors but it must be a changeover.

My thoughts exactly, there must be something out there that I could drive using a QSE-I0 or a 4M-D or other form of communication.

Hi @jwbcinergy

Did you ever find a solution to this issue. I have a similar issue with a 24V deadbolt motor and was hoping to use a VCRX with an ice cube relay or something like that.

Hi JasonR

Yes I ended up using a couple of somfy interfaces and aBOUT 3 QSE-IO
