This was requested so I threw together a quick tutorial of how I use home assistant 'scenes' via node red to control Dynaframe. I can redo this if it's not clear or based on feedback, and hope to do a more formal one soon, but I wanted to unblock those that have been asking for how to control frames from Home assistant.
For those that don't know, Home assistant is a home automation system that can be run on a raspberry pi and that allows for integrations with quite a large number of technologies and brands. It can interact with NFC tags, motion sensors, ambient light, weather and more.
For this video, I have a Zwave switch (zooz with 4 buttons) that controls 'scenes' in home Assistant. I talk about how I use those scenes in Node-Red to trigger http web requests which control the frames and can select a playlist or turn the frames on and off. I also go through how to find out the commands via the documentation or via the logs.
I hope this is helpful for those doing these sorts of things, and if this is useful I can make more of these!
