RFLink + Somfy = always "Open"

Hey,
I got a problem with Domoticz status of my Somfy blinds.
On the card it always shows as open, even when I close it throught Domoticz.

Is there a way to make it work? It worked with an RFXCom I borrowed from a friend, didnt notice if it stops working as I changed the hardware (RFXCom to RFLink) or if it's just a coincidence...
The Open/Stop/Close buttons on the card work and make my blinds open/go to preset position/close, but the status always remains to open. Even when I'm calling the status throught the API or a LUA script it always answers "Off"...
Is there an option hidden somewhere?
Why even when I click the button in Domoticz, Domoticz doesn't update the status? How can I fix this?

Thank you,
Nico

So I manage to get this working, I added manually the blinds to my RFLink as it should be, then manually to Domoticz. It doesnt update their status as is.
I opened my Domoticz to discovery mode (Accept new Hardware Devices in Options) then opened my blinks throught Domoticz, new entries appeared in the devices list, prefixed with 00, I replaced my manually added one with these "switches", updated them to become "blinds" and it works!
