My brother and I finally installed in my bedroom eaves with the electric drive, control over Wi-Fi and using voice assistant.
Cornice I bought on Aliexpress more on the winter sale. He has managed me with delivery around 10 thousand rubles. Now he It costs $ 146.35 plus shipping $ 17.89 (Price depends on the size).
Motor runs completely silently, the mechanism is designed so that the curtains in place of convergence come one after the other and beyond the boundaries of the walls of the cornice. Is controlled by a wired remote control with three touch-sensitive buttons, which is also the smart home device, allowing you to manage the eaves with a smartphone and using voice assistant Google Home and Alexa (Alice also probably can tie through IFTTT).
Here is the process of opening and closing curtains.

All the mechanics made a very cool. I admire the engineer who invented it. Motor BCM3000DC clever: in the first opening and closing curtains, he defines the opening point and closing the ascending effort and stores them. After that, it begins to slow down when the curtains are to the point of closing and opening, and ends the process smoothly and beautifully. Motor feels when the curtain was pulled over manually and automatically opens or closes the curtains (depending on which side was pulled in).
But there is one problem. Automatic open / close when pulled the curtain can operate only when the motor is energized, and WiFi-control turns off the power of the motor in a minute after the command. As a result of automation when pulling on the blind does not work.
But management works over Wi-Fi via SmartLife application.
There are opening and closing of the timer.
The remote is made in the format switch flush mount, and can be put into a standard podrozetnik. The front panel is made of glass, touch-sensitive buttons are constantly illuminated when the command is given opening or closing? the corresponding button changes color to red.
To console connected two network wires and three wires to the engine: zero, opening, closing. For proper operation of the motor need to mains voltage has always been one of the two contacts (opening or closing). Incidentally, in the instructions to the panel, these contacts are reversed.
The motor may be mounted both on the right and left (to remove and put it in a few seconds). Curtains can be two, as I have, or one is shifted to one side.
Delivery courier eaves, large and heavy box was brought home.
When looking at the inside of the box, I was afraid that I could not collect it all. :)
Really a lot of details. I ordered a ledge up to 3.2 meters.
Included are two guides 1 meter, a 0.5 m, two 0.2 m, a 0.1 m. The end pieces give even 15 cm. From this set can be gathered curtain rod length of 35 cm to 3.15 m with a pitch of 10 cm. Width 2.72 meters of my room, I have used the guides 1, 1 and 0.5.
The result was 2.65 m cornice remaining 7 centimeters not a problem -. Included are two types of curtains end fastenings allowing curtains to fix the ends of the cornice width or 5 or 10 cm wider.
There are mounting, allowing to establish as a cornice on the ceiling and on the wall.
The most crucial moment - trimming belt proved not difficult - the kit includes a snap-in that allows you to quickly and easily cut the required two pieces: a one side of the strap is fixed by a special clamp to the edge guide, the other side is placed the measuring strip and the belt is cut at its end.
Belts then passed through the end parts and are connected to the rollers.
It's very simple, very fast and very high-tech.
Surprisingly, yesterday, the day before the installation (and almost half a year after purchase), the seller himself wrote to me in WhatsApp and asked how my business, everything is working well (for the first time this happens). I replied that I have not yet put the cornice and the seller sent a link to the video, which perfectly illustrates the entire assembly process.

Motor I is not like in the video, and not the same as in the manual attached to the eaves.
It turned out that the cornice in Spain sells company Abalon. On her website there is even the very statement that I was attached to the eaves:pacific-hogar.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Instruction_Book_of_the_Motorized_Track.pdf.
I am very pleased with the acquisition. Probably figured out how to get WiFi-panel does not turn off the power to the motor, and then everything will be quite perfect, however, and is now working fine cornice and its main functions are performed. It remains only to decorate hooks and rails, I want to do this from a large plastic bracket by simply thrusting it between the guides and the ceiling, making cut-outs in the field bindings and joints.
