My question is how to wire up the M+, M-, and COM on the switch. My understanding is that S1 and S2 on the zipato will go to M+ and M- on the switch. But what gets wired to COM? As best I can understand that would be neutral? But the zipato diagram have it going to live. And then the zipato NO1 and NC1 would go to the dooya.
BTW - I’m in the US. The Dooya, switch and Zipato are all rated for 110 and 220
Need to be careful on this one. Ideally the M+, M- and COM on the switch are electrically isolated from the N and L. They definitely may not be. In fact the switch circuit suggests COM and L are internally connected, otherwise the motor they have shown on the circuit would not run.
Get an Ohm meter and check if the COM is connected to L, as they are next to each other and may have a PCB track joining them. Also check between COM and N for a connection. It may be your two units are not compatible. Ultimately you need to know what’s in the remote switch - relays or solid state switching.
I am still waiting for it to be delivered. I will test it out once it arrives and reply back. Thanks for the information. I knew it didn’t look right but I couldn’t place my finger on it
The “switch” you show looks like a radio receiver to me.
SO you are wiring 2 different receivers/AC switching to one motor, a no-no, risk of powering the motor in both directions and burn it
If you want a wall or remote control, get a Z-Wave transmitter and associate it to the Zipato module

I think not because I will not wire both the switch and zipato to the motor. The switch will be wired to the zipato (assuming it can be done) and the zipato only will be wired to the motor. Even if a command is received by the switch it still needs to go through the zipato.
check how long the output relays of the switch/receiver are powered once they get a command either from the transmitter or the touch plate or if it is programmable
I hooked it all up last night. First I only connected the switch without the motor and zipato. I pushes 120v to NO or NC when the appropriate button is pressed as expected. What I find weird is that there is constant ~2 volt on the terminals when nothing is going on and also on the terminal not in use (e.g. When opening the NO will measure 120 and NC will be 2v).
But then I wired up the the motor to the switch and it works as expected. So I went ahead and wired the motor to the zipato and the zipato to the switch and everything works fine.
I am just a little worried about the 2. I think I will plug the whole setup into a kill-a-watt and see what it is doing while idle.
