Controlling from Loxone side does nothing #7

i have some roller shutter within openhub. now i would like to control them with the loxone app on my iphone. if i press the roller shutter down button within openhub, the shutter is moving, and the loxone "automatikjalouise" percent value is getting updated. but i would like to have loxone as my main system. so i pressed the down button within the loxone iphone app, but nothing happens. is this something which is not implemented? would like to have this feature since my wife is now happy with loxone and i don´t want here to learn something else again. Thanks a lot

Please describe in more details your configuration. Where is the roller shutter mechanism connected to? Loxone or another device? What defined the roller shutter channel in openHAB - Loxone binding or something else?

sorry, for the late reply. lot of work in the last few month. so here is the details:

the roller shutter mechanism is a free@home system. this it included via a binding withing openhab. there i have two items for every blind. one for up/down/stop of the blind and one for a percentage movement of the blind. the percentage item also shows the actual position of the blind. now, i would like to "send" the actual postion of the blind to my loxone system. therefore, i installed the loxone binding and created a "dimmer" item within loxone. i used the dimmer, because it has a percentage slider. now i connected within the loxone binding within openhab the dimmer with the percentage item. if i now move the blind up or down, i can see the percentage value change within openhab for my percentage item of the free@home binding. i can also see the loxone dimmer item within openhab, that it changes accordingly. but when i look within my loxone configuration software vie live-view, the dimmer item is not changing. what am i doing wrong? thanks a lot bug

Thanks for the explanation. I think this scenario should theoretically work. How does it work when you operate manually the dimmer item linked to Loxone? If it does not I would look at how the dimmer item is defined and linked to the Loxone channel. Pasting your items file and channels definitions will help to diagnose.
