Our old shutter control unit broke down. This controller could receive basic switch inputs and then switched three relays which then controlled the shutters. I did not just want to replace the controller but give it some more functionality, like being able to lower the shutters from my phone or even via a Siri command. Also it would be great to measure the temperature and humidity in the room.
To be able to control the shutters from my phone or Siri I need to implement a rest service with four functions.
"ShutterUP" / "ShutterDown" / "ShutterStop" / "getSensorValue"
As a response I want to get the room temperature and humidity and the state of the shutter With this implemented I then just need to make Siri shortcuts which call the rest service functions.
Final Hardware
Apple shortcuts (works with siri)
