Hello everyone,

I'm facing such problem integrating lighting controller with KNX:

If I have two scenes which turn on lights at exact same value (let's say 100 percent) and I do following:

1. Turn on scene1 which turns on all lights to 100 percent;
2. Turn off all lights via KNX push button (not via lighting controller);
3. Turn on scene2 which turns on all lights to same value as scene before (100 percent).

Then scene2 doesn't send new values to KNX bus because loxone thinks the lights are still at 100 percent. I could make push button turn off function via lighting controller but in some rooms that functions links different room lights, so it won't work there, because lighting controller would just turn off all lights in both rooms. 

Maybe someone has faced similar problem? Maybe there is a way to sync KNX lights status values to loxone lighting controller?

No to my knowledge. You either make KNX push button to control a separate LC or use EIB Switch / Dimmer blocks to control KNX Lights instead of LC. Yeah I know it sucks. It would be perfect to have additional S1-S18 inputs on LC with 4 different status types accepted. Maybe someday in the future.
