Updating status of Virtual selector from device status

Hello
Hope to be in the right place as it related to heating but also to Domo itself and Zwave
To be short
I have a Qubino Zwave device to drive my electric heater (ZMNHJD1)
This one act as a dimmer so I have a block script to easily set the level with button instaed of value > this works well
But if I change directly on the device, I am out of sync with my selector
On this example I set the device to 45% and so I should be on CONFORT-1 on the selector
Unfortunately it seems to be a one way street, from selector to device but no in the other way

Is there any mean to refresh the status of a virtual selector with the status of a real device
Thanks in advance for your idea

See below dzvents script; it should work both ways.
When not yet familiar with dzVents please start with reading
Get started Before implementing. Special attention please for
"In Domoticz go to Setup > Settings > Other and in the section EventSystem make sure the checkbox 'dzVents disabled' is not checked. Also make sure that in the Security section in the settings you allow 127.0.0.1 to not need a password. dzVents uses that port to send certain commands to Domoticz. Finally make sure you have set your current location in Setup > Settings > System > Location, otherwise there is no way to determine nighttime/daytime state."
Code: Select all
local dimmerDevice = 'dimmer'
local selectorDevice = 'select'
return {
on = {
devices = {dimmerDevice, selectorDevice},
},
execute = function(dz, item)
local selector = dz.devices(selectorDevice)
local dimmer = dz.devices(dimmerDevice)
local maxLevel = ( #selector.levelNames - 1 ) * 10
if item.name == 'dimmer' then
if item.level < 1 and item.state ~= "On" then
selector.switchSelector(0)
elseif item.level > 99 and item.state ~= "Off" then
selector.switchSelector(selector.maxLevel)
else
selector.switchSelector(dz.utils.round(item.level / 1000 * maxLevel) * 10 ).silent()
end
else -- = select
dimmer.dimTo(selector.level / maxLevel * 100 ).silent()
end
end
}
