I am using the Group Switch in Scenes for all the rollershutters. If i press down off, all shutters close and for on all shutters open. What i wonder is, is there a status check mechanism in Groups; like when pressing "Off" does the Group switch send all shutters an "Off" message whether they are open or closed, or only the ones which are already or partially open? I do not want to create a zwave network traffic for all the switches, or should i use a script which checks the status of the shutters, instead of using a group?

Let me answer my own question; just found out that Group switches send all members of the group on/off messages, whether they are on or off. So instead of using group switch i used an "if" status check one by one and then send off messages accordingly.

Are you using the Fibaro FGRM222 ?
I have 12 of them and when I put them in a group I could turn it "off" (so everything closed) but I wasn't able to press the button again to make them go "on".

So, my group only allowed the closing...

To resolve this I created 2 scenes. 1 for close and 1 for open.

My fibaro's are configured as blinds percentage inverted. Yours too ?

do not worry about flooding the zWave network, you will never mess it!
(well.. maybe only if you start playing with pollings )

...by my opinion, you take much more server resources and CPU load with a script that query the device and issue the off command if needed, than issue the command by a group

that's not good...
I have a group of 6 and they go on and off correctly.....
can you post a screenshot of you group configuration?

Do you also have them configured as blinds percentage inverted?

This is a screenshot of my scene. I don't have the group anymore.

I use Qubino ZMNCHD flush shutter modules, 11 of them. They are all in "Blinds Inverted Percentage". Group On and Off works as expected, no problems there. However when i make a "Group Off" Request, Imperihome loses status. There's no problem with the "Group On" function.
