Homekit Roller shutter inversion

Add-ons Bindings

Hi Guys,

I am really new to OH and I am running OH 3.0.1 on a Raspberry with a USB ZWAVE stick.
I’ve got Rolltershutter3 from Fibaro that I managed to expose to HomeKit but I am too stupid to find out how to invert the controls like explained in the documentation.
Controlling the shutters over OH works fine but Homekit inverts it so I cannot tell Siri to open the blinds because they get closed.
I have googled for days now and i am getting a bit frustrated… Please help me !

Hi @Jimpansee ,
Have you done this already?

This should do the trick for you.

Best regards
Dirk

Hi Dirk,

thx for your help.
I had not tried it that way yet, unfortunately it still does not work.

@dirkdirk any idea why it might not work? I hate to ask siri to close the blinds when I want them to open

@Jimpansee
You can try to add the inverted true with “ “.
I got a item there must be the true also in “ “ to let it work.

So try:

Inverted: “true“

YES!!! that worked !

For the others:
Open Hab 3.0.1
Go to items, select the roller shutter, then add metadata “home kit”, select window covering then go to the tab above named “code” and insert this:

value: WindowCovering
config:
inverted: “false”

(not sure you need a tab before the inverted)

Muchas Gracias Dirk ! Danke! Obrigado! Grazie! Thank you !!!

Thank you. This solution worked for me too.
I had to manually add quotation marks around “false” in the code section to make inversion work.
