Try and break it down to Loxone vs network vs Shelly vs lightbulb issue.

Can you control it OK via `curl` or pasting the URL into a web browser?

What does it return if you do this?

curl http://<IP_ADDR>/light/0


Generally I find once I have full control of a thing via curl, mapping it into Loxone config is straightforward.

BTW in loxone config you probably need a turn=off command in the "Command for OFF" box too.

Also I'm not familiar with the Dimmer 2, but can you directly set the brightness=100 to turn it on, or do you also need to send a turn=on command first?

Try  http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/light/0?brightness=70 in a web browser. xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the ip address of the Shelly device.
What value is <v> set to. You just can't put <v> it needs to be set to a value between 1 to 100
If you want to dim up or down then you need to use  http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/light/0?dim=up or   http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/light/0?dim=down
Hope this helps
