I am using openhab to control my velbus system.
Some things work like a charm and others could be modified.
First of all i need to get feedback from buttons that are pressed on the vmbgpod’s.
I use a button to block my blinds and i can control them using a string but i don’t have any feedback.
How can i get the feedback if this item is pressed or not?
While looking into that i actually want to find a solution to just read or write the status of any button on a vbmgpod.
In that would also be able to link actions to non velbus devices that are linked to my openhab installation.
In a certain case i want to be able to toggle a wireless controlled non velbus poweroutlet.
When this is possible i wouldn’t always need my app to control this device.
Can anyone here let me know if this is possible, send me in a direction to help me out with this?
Thanks in advance.

Have you seen the trigger channels for Things?
This is an example, where the Velbus names for the channels are read into openHAB first finds and imports the module.
You should even get any virtual buttons in this section.
