Dear community,
I have recently added two FIBARO Roller Shutters 3 and have problems to configure both items with “follow” profile.
Both shutters are working preoperly as individuals. With follow profile one works OK second receives not set values.
Item Shutter Left: Rollershutter FF_Bedroom_Konrad_RollerShutter_Left "RS Konrad L [%d %%]" <rollershutter> (FF_Bedroom_Konrad, gRollerShutter) ["Roller Shutter"] {channel="zwave:device:8985008e:node11:blinds_control"}
Item Shutter Right: Rollershutter FF_Bedroom_Konrad_RollerShutter_Right "RS Konrad R [%d %%]" <rollershutter> (FF_Bedroom_Konrad, gRollerShutter) ["Roller Shutter"] {channel="zwave:device:8985008e:node10:blinds_control"}

Moreover,
having Item with follow profile when I change status on the right Shutter the left one is being moved as well.
Does someone understand why my receivers are getting different values to set?
Ps.
Left Shutter has:
channel Blinds Control set to “Invert Control”
channel Blinds Control unset to “Invert precentage value”
Right Shutter has:
channel Blinds Control unset to “Invert Control”
channel Blinds Control set to “Invert precentage value”
This “_Both” Item will send any commands received to zwave channel for node10.
The zwave channel for node11 is configured to follow. That means it will listen for state updates to the Item, and then treat those as commands instead, and pass along to the node11 device.
Yes.
Right is node10, a new position report sent over zwave will update the “_Right” Item and the “_Both” Item.
The follow channel will be activated by the “_Both” update and send it to node11 as a command.
Maybe if you tell you us what you are trying to achieve? I suspect you may want a Group instead.
Sure. For these two windows I have independent controlls. For each shutter separete. It works perfectly.
My intention is to add one more item which controls two of them with the same parameters.
Eg. Send command 50% → both shutters will open to 50% independently of their current postion. CLOSE → both will to close (at the same time)
I was thinking about grouping them as well or write a rule but wanted to be “smart” hiting this with follow profile. Seems that I did not understand the follow profile.
If you put both your Items in a Group, any commands that you send to the Group Item will get passed (as commands) to both member Items.
The individual member Items then do whatever they normally do with commands, passing to any linked devices via bindings for example.
hmm. just reading Documentation and I do not think it is possible to send request to Group of Shutters to controll them in Basic UI.
How you can control group of items in Basic UI?
I wish to have one control element
but sending commands to two shutters.
One solution might be to have independent Rollshutter item and write rule to send to the group.
Thi i can solve with rules as well. Ist there anything easier i can realise in sitemap?
