Wired operation of electric Velux plus electric external blind?

[Alan Ambrose]

Anyone have a schematic or a simple explanation of how to wire an electric Velux plus electric external blind? I really want a wired set-up and no RF or batteries or remotes and preferably 24V. Are these 24V internally with a 240V transformer on-board? Is it possible to wire only for 24V operation? Yeah, eventually for Home Assistant software or similar. Something like a 6-wire set-up (i.e. 2 off open and close) to some relays?

The rf controls are plug and play, with the windows addressable to open / close etc in tandem (or more) at the press of one button.

 

Not seen 24v options but I’ve not seen every model / iteration.

 

Velux tech should be able to give you concise information regarding which models / units can be manipulated the way you want them to be. Lots of options, so it may be advantageous to better understand what’s available so you can get the best results.

i just connected up my velux blackout blinds (internal) at the weekend. They connect to a pre-installed power plug on the side of the integras and its marked as 24v. The window themselves are 240v but that obviously goes to a transformer in the head of the window which you cant see. I didnt see any options to have these controlled "hard-wired" so to speak, and i did look into it at the time as it made more sense from a reliability standpoint. However the remote button has worked fine but i usually just ask google to open them for me.
