RTS vs. IO Technology Considerations:
It is important to note that RTS technology is unidirectional, meaning the remote sends commands to the motor without receiving feedback on execution. This is suitable for simpler installations where feedback is not required. However, if you seek a more advanced solution that offers real-time feedback and better integration with home automation systems, the IO-homecontrol® technology is the recommended choice.
IO technology is bidirectional, meaning the motor sends information back to the remote or smart system, confirming the command was executed and providing status updates on the device. This is especially useful for more complex installations or smart homes where precise control and greater integration are desired.
For instance, if you're considering motorized blinds, the Sunea Range by Somfy® offers options with IO technology that provide more control and flexibility. These blinds can easily integrate with home automation systems and offer real-time feedback on their status.
In summary, the choice between RTS and IO depends on your installation needs and the level of control and automation you want for your home. If you're looking for a simple and cost-effective solution, the Altus Range with RTS technology is an excellent choice. If you prefer a more advanced solution with greater integration and control, the Sunea Range with IO technology is the ideal option.
