Heatit Z-Push Button 8 > Dimmerchannels always getting endpoint value of 0

Running Openhab 3.0 and wanted to add a new zwave device.
I can get the scene numbers when i push the buttons. But the linked dimmer items never get a new value. When i turn on debug it seems that if you long press one of the 4 channels on buttons it always gets the value of 0?

It’s this device: OpenSmartHouse Z-Wave Device Database

From looking at the manual ( in the database entry you linked to) it appears that remote controls through Association Groups.

If you with to look further, here is the log viewer.

@Bruce_Osborne thats correct. I already associated the controller with these groups.

And as you can see the events from “COMMAND_CLASS_SWITCH_MULTILEVEL” are all coming in. But there doesn’t seem to be a value sent. just value increase?

With eg. other (zwave and non zwave dimmers) i get dimmer values in the range of 0-100 that the dimmer item would understand.

The controller should only be associated with the Lifeline group. You associate the devices you wish to control to the other groups, I believe. I have not done that though. I just have not really worked much with Association Groups.

So you say that you can only control with using dimmer channels 1-4 in openhab the configured zwave nodes/devices associated with these groups 1-4 through the 8 button switch.

but you cant get the dimmer level back when someone uses the buttons on the 8 button switch (long press of 1 of 0 buttons) ?

It’s also strange that when i use the dimmer item from openhab i see this in the log:
