No, in general Dimmer Item supports ON and OFF command, but the linked channel has to support ON/OFF command, too. You could use a simple rule:
rule "send number in addition of ON/OFF"
when
Item myDimmerItem received command
then
switch (receivedCommand) {
case ON : myDimmerItem.sendCommand(100)
case OFF : myDimmerItem.sendCommand(0)
case INCREASE : myDimmerItem.sendCommand((myDimmerItem.state as Number) + 5)
case DECREASE : myDimmerItem.sendCommand((myDimmerItem.state as Number) - 5)
}
end
This will “translate” the commands ON, OFF, INCREASE and DECREASE to a set level command. In fact, INCREASE and DECREASE are often unused (but you will need them for classic UI)
