just wondering what I might be doing wrong in the following setup:
I have KNX for mainly my lights and rollershutters
OH 3.1
OpenHAB Skill enabled for Amazon Echo.
Switching the lights with Amazon Echo is working without any issues. Also, I have temp sensors in KNX which also show the correct values in the Alexa App.
However, my roller shutters are not working. I have added the Alexa metadata (blinds), and when the rollershutters are open, they also show the correct percentage (0%), as well as when they’re closed (100%) - if the shutters are closed in any position in between, Alexa shows 100%.
More importantly, though, I cannot control the rollershutters wich Alexa, i.e. it doesn’t work through the app, nor with any voice command (open, close, or a percentage number).
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Happy to supply any additional information…
as item metadata alexa for a Rollershutter thing and I can say Alex, Rollo rechts 60% and the position changes. ZigBee blinds, but that shouldn’t matter. The Alexa App also shows the correct position.
It turned out that the KNX thing was configured incorrectly, i.e. the Alexa binding uses absolute positions, whereas right now I am controlling the rollershutters (in the UI of OH) only with “up/down/stop” - have to add the absolute position group address to the knx configuration, that should then get it working…
please use english as this is an international forum…
I guess, you’ve got the same or similar problem. please state your problem and post the ETS-configuration of the rollershutters as well as your openHAB configuration.
please also state your problem. What I can see, you didn’t configure a “position” GA, which means, you only can use “up”/“down” or “stop”. the “actionMappings” can’t do anything in that case.
