Thank you for this hint. I am on heavy load actually and can not say when i have the time to change this.

[Siggi0904]

Okay, bad to hear, hopefully we get an update in next time.

You can use the action object to control the blinds. Use the parameters from the link like open and set action to "open":"true"

Okay, but how with iobroker? We switched back to old ddf and it works for now.

Hi, It's not possible to use your way. The DDF from deconz is not read correctly and with that, I cannot communicate with deconz over iobroker.

If I did not understand your way, please guide me in iobroker. Thanks.

Have the same problem and found this discussion. I run

• Deconz in Docker on RPi4 2_22_2
• IOBroker 6.3.5 in Docker with Deconz Zigbee 2.0.7 manually installed from GitHub
• IKEA Fyrtur on Fw 24.4.11

Thanks Jey-Cee for your hint, however it took me some time to understand how to set the "action" string.

The following strings entered in the deconz.0.lights.[hex-adress].action as string work for me: "lift": 100, "open": false --> lowers the blind to maximum "lift": 50, "open": false -->lowers/raises the blind to half "lift": 0, "open": true --> raises the blind to the minimum, its open.

Remark: When I started my trials with "open": false or "open": true, it

• sometimes worked as expected,
• often results in a stop after 1-2 seconds and proceeding after some more seconds, but also
• occassionally stops after 1-2 seconds and only proceeds when writing the action attribute again.

Cheers C4mper

Update: is still not reliable - although "action" is updated correctly by a javascript, one of two blinds does not react any more.

Damn, the WAF is falling quickly...

[C4mp3r-Grey]

Update 2: having not change anything, everthing runs finde and quickly since this morming. Maybe the zigbee net was overloaded? Don't now how to check that.

Now it runs as expected by using the action string through blocky. Fine for me right now.

The big report however is still valid

Anyway, big thanks for all that freeware and your time spent!

Please delete your existing blinds devices in object tree first to avoid confusion since completely new DPs with new names will be created for blinds aka window covers.
