KNX Cover: No update on bus signals (no position object)

Configuration
13

WAF is going down significantly. Any help on the horizon? Otherwise I need look into this appdaemon thing. Learning a full new tool and programming language just to have blinds go up and down seems a pitty.

There is a ticket already for the KNX component already

UPDATE:

Heureka, I got a tip from one of the xnkx developers and created a workaround.

add to your knx: section these lines to get the knx event fired to the hA event bus:

knx:
  ...
  fire_event: true
  fire_event_filter:
    - "1/3/1-6" # Rolladen Ergeschoss Lang/Kurz Objekte
    - "2/3/1-6" # Rolladen Obergeschoss Lang/Kurz Objekte

create the following automation

- alias: "fake position arbeiten down"
  trigger:
    platform: event
    event_type: knx_event
    event_data:
      address: '1/3/2'
      data: 1
  action:
    - service: knx.send
      data:
        address: '1/3/7'
        payload:
          - 255

- alias: "fake position arbeiten down"
  trigger:
    platform: event
    event_type: knx_event
    event_data:
      address: '1/3/2'
      data: 0
  action:
    - service: knx.send
      data:
        address: '1/3/7'
        payload:
          - 0

I will see if I work on an appdaemon python script to do this more intelligent and derive the positions in between as well. I will keep you posted.

There is a follow up discussion going on here for a better solution which also creates positions between 0 and 100%.
