I am dying trying to wrap my head around this. The touch panel MDT Smart 86 has 4 Objects to control dimming. On/off , Dimming, and I think Visu Scale on one button.
This is how it looks in my LM DR
this is how I have configured in ETS4 (PB2 is the button)
The button Kitchen does dimm and do on/off, but the scale object does not update to the real dimming value neither in the LM nor on the Button Display.
LM does not provide status feedback for DALI light levels. You can create a resident script to poll actual values from ballasts. Do you have many of them?

Use this resident script, 0 sleep time. It will poll each ballast, then sleep for 1 second internally. You need to create status objects manually, this example uses 32/2/0..32/2/7 range. Data type is 1-byte scale, make sure that status objects are not the same as control objects.

Try and see if it works for you. DALI bus is very slow so it can be easily overloaded. If you query too often then the control requests will be delayed.

Thanks I will try.
Also I should use only one script to read/write from/to DALI Bus in-order to prevent collision?
another thing, How to read the ballast on/off status ?
