Velux integration

[emillika]

Has anyone integrated a Velux WLF 111 skylight control into there system? We are installing 4 skylights (QVE 156's) and I was wondering if I could control them via CQC or the Elk.

Thanks.

I believe you can get a skylight controller that has dry contact closure connections on it. If so, those would easily hook up to the Elk. CQC or the Elk could control it, but CQC would need some sort of physical interface, unless they come with a serial port nowadays.

Forgive my ignorance but I am a "plug and pray" guy on the hardware side. Velux as a WLF 111 controller that they say will help integrate with a home automation system for about $250. Before the blind buy I was hoping someone could walk me through the steps/setup to take control of the lights and blinds.
