    Hello,

    I got the project that the customer requests to set the curtain in half open. However, I just know the shutter realy just can be programmed as fully open(255), fully close(0) and stop(5).

    How can I to make the curtain half open or 30% open or 70% open................?

    Thank you my buddy!

    The Global tab of the shutter relay has an option that says 'Level Translation Mode'. If you check that the shutter will stop at the percentage open selected by the group address. You just can't select 1%, 2% 98% or 99% as these are still interpreted as the toggle commands. You need to set the fail safe delay to the exact time the curtain takes to open (plus a bit) as this is used to determine where to stop the curtain. Don't expect it to be exact, but it's good enough for most circumstances.
