Somfy Roller Shutter Wall Switch Lock / Limiter

English version see below

Description:
When operating the wall switches for our Somfy roller shutters, it occasionally happens that one gets caught on the small "dip switch" when operating the switch, changing it from "auto" to "manual". This deactivates the Somfy automatic system, and the roller shutter remains in its set position.

To resolve this "issue", I have designed a small lock. It simply plugs in. It clamps and locks onto the dip switch but can be removed with normal force and without tools—nothing drastic.

The red version was my prototype; the gray ones are my production parts.

I hope you enjoy it and welcome any feedback.

Description:
When operating the wall switch for our Somfy external venetian blinds, it happens from time to time that you get stuck on the small “dip switch” when operating the switch and change it from “auto” to “manual”. This deactivates the Somfy automatic system and the external venetian blind remains in the set position.

To solve the “problem”, I have constructed a small lock. This is just plugged in. It jams and locks on the dip switch, but you can remove it again with normal force without tools, so nothing dramatic.

The red version was my prototype and the gray ones are my standard parts.

I wish you lots of fun with it and would be happy to receive feedback.
