    It's simple if you don't have your own IP, buy a VPS server, e.g. sldc, I recommend the cheapest one for PLN 10. There you install the server part of OPENVPN and you do the client at home, look for a router with the right amount of memory to be able to upload, for example, gargoyle, openwrt etc ... together with OpenVPN, e.g. Tplink Wdr4300 there, you only upload client configuration files and that's it and you have a problem out of your head every device logged into the router in the home network, you will have normal access to it using the same addresses as if you were in the local network. I have it because I have no limit LTE at home without external IP, so for PLN 10 you have an external one. IP and even more possibilities ;)

    If you write something, I will write you a faq quick what and how with commands ;)

    And it's very interesting what you wrote with this VPS! Write something more about how it works. I also have internet with LTE and as I knew it on the Orange forum, I found info that there is no chance for an external IP, even if it costs several dozen PLN / month. As for the router, I already have Gargoyle for several years and I praise myself so there is no problem with it. I tried to configure it with dyndns but it turned out that it has no chance to work because every client in the 3G / LTE network is behind the provider's firewall and does not have an assigned IP seen from the world. So if you could write more about this VPS I would be very grateful! Thanks :)

    Well, you have to buy a VPS, as I wrote, I recommend sldc.pl for the cheapest and very fast pings.
    Once you buy it, you do everything like here:
    http://kb.rootbox.com/instalacja-i-konfiguracja-openvpn-serwerklient/
    So you install openvpn for a short time and generate certificates for the server and the client.

    When you install it, use this conf for the server:

    Code: Text
    Log in, to see the code


    Quickly, this entry at the bottom 192.168.107.0 - this is my one network at home and the other at work, you can connect multiple networks only you need to remember that each has a different pool of IP addresses ;) . Thanks to this, if I have a laptop, a cell or a computer, I can enter the address of the device after connecting to OpenVPN and connect to it directly.

    If you have the option of gary installation of OPENVPN, install and upload client configurations to it. And that's all the router calls the server and creates a visible subnet with each client that connects to the server simple and pleasant it looks terrible but it is very simple and is basically limited to 40 commands in total and some activities related to copying certificates are just like something write it when you have a problem.

    Great, thanks a lot for the info. This will complete my Domoticz configuration, because the only thing I missed at the moment was the possibility of getting from the outside without the help of MyDomoticz :)

    In the end, I assembled a slightly different set than the one described above, namely - I gave up the additional PCB for Arduino and the Aurel module. Instead of Aurel, I used a cheap set WL101 + WL102 (433MHz), which I bought for ali, for example here: https://goo.gl/ZrRJx0 for less than $ 2. I must admit that I was very positively surprised by the WL102 transmitter with its range on the attached small antenna - it easily supports the blinds between the ceilings throughout the building, even better than the original Portosa remote control, which did not always manage between floors.
    I put Domoticz on a Banana Pi connected to an Arduino via USB. If someone does not want to invest in a Raspberry or Banana Pi (this is the most expensive element of the whole set), then he may as well place Domoticz on an old laptop and connect the Arduino with RFLink via USB - I checked on the old Windows, it works great.
    To sum up - the most important and the most expensive of the entire set is the Arduino Mega - $ 7. Even the cheapest transmitters / receivers work without any problems and all thanks to RFLink - the same components connected directly to the Raspberry Pi did not want to work with my roller shutters despite many attempts and various configurations.
    Thanks again to everyone for the thread and the way to solve the problem with which I have been struggling for a long time :) In case you had any questions, I'll be glad to help



    1. Hint to what extent you can control the roller shutters, open / close or, for example, open the roller shutters 50%?
    2. Is the control of one motor (closing / opening) realized within one channel?

    Hi. Do you have any schematic how to connect it with arduino?

    edit:
    I already managed it, I didn't solder the antennas - I thought it would catch any signal without an antenna :)
    The blinds work!

    I do not know if anyone will answer me in this topic, I have aluprof blinds with a yooda remote control. 9 roller blinds down and 6 roller blinds up. Is there any inexpensive solution to control the phone.

    I found something like this https://www.houseiq.pl/pl/p/TUYA-4CH-DC-5-32V-4-kanaly-Wifi-beznapieciowy-TUYA/1051

    To this device you can connect buttons from the remote control as shown in the picture below. I just have 4 roller shutter remotes so I could connect two. What do you think about it?

    Hello. I found a topic about roller blinds, so I don't create a new one. I have Aluprof DC289 roller shutters. The battery in the remote control has run out. Unfortunately, the second remote control is lost. After inserting new batteries, the blinds do not work. I suspect that the remote control needs to be coded. How to do it? maybe someone has the coding instructions. It's good that I have them exposed because it would be dark. Using RF Module with Raspberry PI to Operate Aluprof Roller Shutters Wirelessly

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around using an RF module with a Raspberry Pi to control Aluprof roller shutters wirelessly. The user currently operates the shutters with a DC306 remote, which communicates on a 433MHz frequency. Participants suggest various approaches, including reverse engineering the remote signals, replacing the existing receiver with an ESP module for WiFi control, or using an Arduino with RFLink to manage the shutters. Key points include the importance of understanding RF transmission parameters, the potential for encryption, and the feasibility of pairing the RFLink with the existing remote. Several users successfully implemented RFLink with Arduino to control their roller shutters, sharing insights on setup and configuration with Domoticz for home automation. The conversation also touches on the need for a remote control for initial pairing and the possibility of controlling multiple shutters independently.
