Klabauter7 Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Dear Community, I am planning to use: 2x Shelly 2.5 on 2x Swing Gate Actors (230V; with mechanical end-stops) Idea: control these motors just like Rollers/Shutters —> and make the given OEM-control obsolete.. 😏 Is this feasible? Cheers K=) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thgoebel Posted August 4 Members Share Posted August 4 Disclosure of type and manufacturer of the gate actors and a link to the manual would be brilliant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klabauter7 Posted August 5 Author Share Posted August 5 I don‘t have a motor yet, but there are many out there: a) b) Who already has realized such kind of pure Shelly Gate Control? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thgoebel Posted August 5 Members Share Posted August 5 (edited) If you keep in mind the closing force of such a spindle drive (e.g. 2kN), hardly anyone will want to realize a pure on/off of the drive without force monitoring and/or light barrier. Therefore, from my point of view, there will be few practical examples of direct control with Shelly plus 2PM... Nevertheless, this would be possible, because in terms of circuit technology such a drive does not differ from a roller shutter motor of a simple kind.
