I am working on electronic soulutions model # RP24DU. The somfy codes work on it so I think it may actually be a somfy product with another name brand. The problem that I am running into is when I send out the down command I need to press it twice. The first time will reset the moter the second actually drops the shades. I can also use the stop command to reset the moter. This seems like an easy fix by makeing a macro that sends the stop code then the down code. The problem is that if the screen has been up for a few min the delay of the code needs to be different than if it were just sent up. Has anyone run into a similar problem? Is there a somfy discrete reset code that may work? Or maybe a setting on the Shades? Thanks for any help.

This reminds me of an SM Automatic drapery controller, where there is an automatic stop at the end of the run, and the power stays on for two minutes. During that time, you have to hit the button twice to get the action that is the reverse of what you just did. After the two minutes, one hit works.

By the way, could you upload the Somfy codes that you have? Some people who use the TSU3000 forum are having trouble learning codes. They seem to learn but do not work.

Thanks!
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.

The RP24 is NOT a Somfy control - as a matter of fact, the two companies are sorta competitors. Electronic solutions does have IR codes (for Marantz) on their website - have you checked that?
