the busWhat can you do with Silent Gliss and Niko Home Control?
If you connect your motor-controlled shutters and blinds to Niko Home Control, you can control your shutters and blinds via push-buttons, the Niko Home App on a tablet or smartphone, or via the Touchscreen, Touch10 and/or Digital Black.
You can perform the following actions:
-
Open/Close
-
Stop opening/closing at an intermediate position
-
Go to a predefined position
We recommend the following options to make even better use of this connection:
Automatically open and close the shutters and blinds based on a weekly time schedule or sunrise/sunset events; see https://guide.niko.eu/en/smnhc2/lv/creating-a-weekly-schedule.

Silent Gliss requirements
RF-controlled, battery-powered and solar-powered motors are typically not compatible with Niko Home Control.
Venetian blinds are usually compatible with Niko Home Control. However, controlling the slat position is only possible for installations on bus wiring (containing a connected controller), and you will need additional products and a complex configuration that is adapted to your Venetian blinds.
Your system should meet the following requirements:
-
It has an integrated limit switch for open/closed positions
-
It has a 3-wire 230V AC connection, or a 2-wire 12V DC or 24V DC connection.
-
It is compatible with the chosen motor module or connected motor control (see Niko requirements). Check the specifications such as maximum current per output and switching delay on Niko.eu.
