    The SRW-01 should be able to handle this, just set the inputs in the service menu to bistable mode and not monostable like the author of this thread --> https://www.elektroda.pl/rtvforum/topic3410923.html

    Make sure how many wires are connected to the actuator though.

    .
    Meaning?
    The roller shutters will be fitted by a company, there will probably be 3 cables going from the motor to the power supply and that's it. I need to connect the power and then the remote control.

    So all I need is a Zamel Supla SRW-01 and surely it will work?

    In item 3 of the manual you have shown how to connect the motor if you only have remote control then there may indeed be a problem with any external control although on the other hand it seems to me that in the roller shutter (not in the drive) there should be some kind of controller to which you can connect the SRW-01 module

    I'll check it when I have the roller blinds , possibly I'll send pictures then ok? thanks for your help :)

    " on the other hand, it seems to me that there should be some kind of controller in the roller shutter (not in the drive) to which the SRW-01 module can be connected "- it seems to me that this is all built into the drive and there are only 3 cables coming out of it...:( .

    There is no possibility of external control. I have been through this. The motor with radio receiver has no additional terminals. There is also no radio device that converts the wired signal into a radio signal.

    Portos advice: replace the motor.

    If this is indeed the case then there is nothing you can do, by the way a clever move by the manufacturer, if something dies then replace the whole thing.
    Or maybe you have the possibility of replacing the drives with ordinary ones without remote controls, then the field of action is unlimited.

    Hello, for some time now Portos has introduced a radio roller shutter controller that controls the roller shutter remotes via the Wi fi network. It also works outside the home network. It is called Exala and you can create various scenarios in the application and name the roller shutters. The only drawback I can see is the resistance of the operation (delay after switching it on) and you cannot see in the application what position the roller shutter is in. Unless there are electronic limiters, but I do not own one and do not know. A post for those who would like to have such a thing.

Topic summary

Controlling Portos roller shutters via WiFi is challenging due to the integrated motor and radio receiver design, which lacks external control terminals. The standard Portos motors typically have only three cables and no provision for wired external control or signal conversion to radio. The manufacturer recommends replacing the motor if external control is required. An alternative solution discussed is the Zamel Supla SRW-01 module, which can control roller shutters if connected to a compatible controller or actuator configured in bistable mode; however, this depends on the motor wiring and presence of a separate controller. Recently, Portos introduced the Exala radio roller shutter controller that enables WiFi control of roller shutters remotely, including scenario creation and naming via an app. Limitations of Exala include operational delay and lack of real-time position feedback unless electronic limiters are installed.
