[MOSAIC] Group objects together - phil - 07.11.2024
I am using Mosaic for visualisation purposes.
Currently we have 6 shutters upstairs which can be controlled by separate widgets.
I would like to group all 6 shutters into one group so there is a button to move all shutters simultaneously up or down.
Since a normal widget only accepts one object I was wondering about the most efficient way to achieve this result?
Thank you.

Create single group in ETS for them.

I think that would imply we can no longer control them individually. There are buttons next to the shutters that need to keep working as they are now. Are there any alternatives?

ETS allows you to create individual groups and group many objects in to one, this are basics of KNX
You can then control them individually and together depend of which group you use.

Do you mean creating an additional individual group address to combine functionality (eg shutters upstairs) and assigning that to each actuator controlling one of the shutters?
I know it is basic but I will end up cluttering ETS with a significant amount of 'auxiliary' addresses.
I was hoping LM would allow for a more elegant solution?

This what I'm proposing is the most elegant solution, this way with single telegram you can control multiple shutters. It you want to flood bus with telegrams create a script which will send telegrams to multiple objects to control them together.

How do I launch the script from a widget?

By creating event script and the Group address which will trigger the script will be used on your widget. Each time you change value on widget the script will be triggered.
