Eve Motion Blinds integrated via Matter/Thread missing controls in c/[email protected]

Thanks again for the detailed explanation, I think there might indeed be some confusion on my side as I'm fairly new to the ecosystem.

There is also a way to pair devices with the HomeKit integration, and not directly through the Thread border router.

I'll definitely try this when I'm home, I didn't know you could pair devices via the HomeKit integration too. And yes, currently my blinds are connected via the Matter integration and the Thread Border Router/ZBT-1.

Thanks, I didn't know exposing controls was another thing for itself. The integration requires the blinds to be used with a bridge, however I was always able to use the blinds without one directly over Thread. What I don't get is why the controls have been working in Apple Home but don't in HA.

Hey everyone,

I'm currently setting up my Home Assistant Green and so far most things work fine - I've been able to migrate all my Zigbee accessories over and also managed to get Matter/Thread working using the Connect ZBT-1.

There is one accessory that I just can't get to work though and that's my Eve Motion blinds window cover. Pairing them via Thread worked perfectly fine and basic diagnostics seem to work too, however I'm unable to control it in any meaningful way like opening or closing the blinds. The respective actions just aren't available. Some basic functions like identifying the device work though. When I used them in my old Home Kit Home (also via Matter/Thread) with my Home Pod as my Thread border router they worked without any issues. This leads me to believe there might be some sort of misconfiguration I don't fully understand and that the device interview function is unable to fix on its own.

Did anybody manage to integrate them into their home yet or has any other suggestions on what to do?

These are the exact blinds: https://csa-iot.org/csa_product/eve-motionblinds-6/

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!

Cheers

Ich finde Christoph Ploß genau wegen dieser Oberflächlichkeit bzw. dem populistischen Anstrich mancher Äußerungen so unendlich unangenehm - gut dass die CDU in Hamburg in der Opposition rumgammelt
