Hello, I have a TechniSat shutterswitch with embedded Z-Wave. I can close and open blinds using Home Assistant, this works fine. I can even set the position.
What is not working properly is moving from one position to another position (except if starting from position “closed”/0 or “opened”). The blinds just open fully if I do this and then I cannot change the position anymore for a while, although it seems to depends what position I try to change it to again. I need to do more testing to get a more granular picture of the issue.
Example of something not working: changing position from 40 to 60. If I attempt this, the blinds will fully open and stay open. Attempting to run the script to set position to 60 again has no effect for a while, probably because Z-Wave JS “thinks” that the position is now 60 already.
Now, my question is, how can I best troubleshoot this? I would like to be able to issue commands to:
- check current_position reported by the cover, maybe poll at regular intervals (only for troubleshooting).
- see Z-Wave traffic, which command is sent, what is sent back.
Once I have the exact commands and if I see it seems it’s a bug in the TechniSat implementation, I can contact them, but I need some logs before reaching out to them.
