OVERVIEW AND SUPPORTED FEATURES
The Somfy Universal RTS Interface II (URTSI II) is a multi-channel RF shade controller which supports standalone control of up to 16channels via RS-232. Multiple URTSI II’s may be bussed together and controlled via RS-485, enabling extended shade control networks. THE SOMFY URTSI II SYSTEM SUPPORTS THE FOLLOWING FEATURES: Various Motors Supported: The Somfy URTSI II system supports different types of motors for various installation scenarios, including battery powered, AC powered and DC powered. See Somfy for details.Positions: Somfy URTSI II supports momentary up and down, as well as fully up and down. Presets: Somfy URTSI II supports one preset position. Channels: The URTSI II has 16 separate channels. This allows you to control up to 16 motors independently, 16 groups independently, or any combination of motors and groups totaling 16 or less. Multiple URTSI II: URTSI II may be bussed together via RS-485 and provideup to 16 addressed control units each controlling 16 channels. THE SOMFY URTSI II SYSTEM DOES NOT SUPPORT THE FOLLOWING FEATURES: Two-Way Control: The Somfy shade control system does not provide any acknowledgement or status when commands are sent, so HomeLogic assumes commands sent are successful for feedback controls. Feedback: The Somfy shade control system does not report back to an externalcontroller when local input (such as from a handheld remote) is used to move the shades. HomeLogic will attempt to maintain the state of shades based on the last command sent from HomeLogic for feedback controls. If local remotes are used, it is recommended to use only non-feedback controls (see HomeLogic Configuration Details) to prevent incorrect display.

INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
1. During therough-in phase, pull power and control wiring as needed for the particular set of motors installed. Refer to Somfy documentation for details. 2. During the rough-in phase, pull a Cat5 cable to the location of a URTSI II. See Connection Diagram. 3. Configure the URTSI II motors and shade system according to typical Somfy procedures. See Somfy Programming Details. 4. Connect the URTSI II Interface tothe OneHome system electrically. 5. Configure the OneHome system for the Somfy shades. See HomeLogic Configuration Details.
