SOMFY TaHoma Switch Technical Specifications

Control Your SOMFY Gate from a Smartphone

With compatible SOMFY gate automation, the TaHoma Switch can bring the automatic entrance gate into the connected-home ecosystem. Users can operate supported gate functions through the TaHoma by Somfy app rather than relying only on a conventional handheld remote control.

Compatibility depends on the exact gate motor, radio technology and control system. Confirm whether the installed automation uses compatible RTS or io-homecontrol technology before purchasing TaHoma Switch specifically for gate control.

SOMFY RTS Gate Control with TaHoma Switch

TaHoma Switch supports compatible SOMFY RTS automation products. This makes it useful for homes already equipped with supported SOMFY RTS gate, garage door, shutter or blind automation.

SOMFY specifies support for up to 50 RTS products on TaHoma Switch, allowing a wide range of compatible RTS equipment to be centralised within one smart-home environment.

io-homecontrol Smart Home Integration

TaHoma Switch also includes native support for io-homecontrol, SOMFY's bidirectional connected-home radio technology used across many compatible automation products.

Current SOMFY documentation specifies support for up to 120 io devices, making TaHoma Switch suitable for larger connected-home installations containing multiple compatible automation products.

Zigbee 3.0 Smart Home Integration

The SOMFY TaHoma Switch supports selected Zigbee 3.0 products, expanding the system beyond traditional gate, shutter and blind automation.

This allows compatible connected-home equipment to be combined into automated scenes alongside supported SOMFY products. Exact Zigbee compatibility should always be checked before purchasing third-party devices for use with TaHoma.

TaHoma by Somfy Mobile App

The TaHoma by Somfy app provides the main smartphone and tablet interface for setting up, controlling and automating compatible connected equipment.

From the app, users can organise compatible devices by room, access favourite equipment, launch scenes and configure automation according to their daily routine.

Create Smart Home Scenes

One of the strongest features of TaHoma Switch is the ability to combine multiple compatible products into customised scenes.

Instead of controlling each product individually, a scene can trigger several compatible devices together. For example, a personalised arrival or departure scene can coordinate selected gates, garage doors, shutters, blinds or lighting according to the installed equipment and supported functions.

Scheduled Automation

TaHoma Switch supports scheduled scenes, allowing compatible home equipment to operate automatically according to selected times and routines.

Current SOMFY documentation specifies up to 20 scheduled scenes, including support for sunrise and sunset functions.

Two Customisable Scene Buttons

The TaHoma Switch itself includes two physical scene-launch buttons. These buttons can be customised to activate two favourite scenes without opening the mobile application.

This provides convenient local control for frequently used routines such as arriving home, leaving the property or another personalised smart-home scene.

Voice Control with TaHoma Switch

TaHoma Switch integrates with supported smart-home voice ecosystems, including compatible Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant devices. Apple Home compatibility is also available for applicable supported products and configurations.

Voice-control availability depends on the connected product, protocol, region and supported integration. Not every TaHoma-connected device necessarily supports every voice command.

Philips Hue Integration

Compatible Philips Hue lighting can be integrated into the TaHoma environment through a supported Philips Hue Bridge. This allows compatible lighting to participate in smart-home scenes alongside SOMFY automation.

For example, selected lighting and compatible shutters or other equipment can be combined into a single personalised home scene.

Smart Home Control for Multiple Applications

Depending on the installed equipment and compatibility, SOMFY TaHoma Switch can centralise a wide range of connected-home applications, including:

• Automatic gates
• Garage doors
• Roller shutters
• Blinds
• Curtains
• Awnings and screens
• Compatible lighting
• Compatible heating equipment
• Selected security equipment
• Other compatible smart-home devices

Expandable SOMFY Smart Home System

TaHoma Switch is designed as an evolutive smart-home solution. A user can start with a small number of compatible devices and add more equipment later as the connected-home system expands.

Its combination of SOMFY radio technologies, selected Zigbee products and supported partner integrations makes it suitable for both new smart-home projects and upgrades to existing compatible SOMFY automation.
