Hi,
I hope someone can help me, I am a a new to this.
I am trying to get some window blinds (electric) to work on a Control4 system, These are not your typical blinds. They are 240v AC and go through a relay with a lower voltage coil.
My problem is I can't tell if the coil voltage is AC or DC. I would assume it is DC as I would not think the switching mechanism would work if it were AC
I have some pictures of the meter I used to check. (three in total). Any help would be good with that one.
Second problem,
The blinds currently work on a rocker style switch with a common Live (we will know the voltage if I get help on the above). Push the switch up and the blinds will go up and push the switch down to make them come down. My idea is to wire to coil of the blinds relay to the Control4 relays Common to Com and the Negative to NC and share the common to the reverse.
The Control4 Relay is rated to 36V AC 2amp or 24VDC 1amp, I am struggling on how to make the connection between the blind and the Control4 system
Thank you in advance
