In this first release, the UCM/VELBUS has 1 BUG.
It is not possible to choose STOP function in the blinds modules options (VMB1BL & VMB2BL).
To acheive the STOP function, while the new firmware is not released, you can simply edit the action codes.

As example:

Do the complete response settings for the module (module type, address, channel if applyable).
Then right click on the response and select "edit action codes" option.
You will find the action codes string of numbers.

If you have chosen the "Switch Blind Up" function in the response, you will see in the middle of the string something like this "...,5,5,...".

If you have chosen the "Switch Blind Down" function in the response, you will see in the middle of the string something like this "...,5,6,...".

In either case change ONLY these values to "...,2,4,...".

This will appear as an RS232 command sent to the UCM ID correspondant to VelBUS.

For those who may want to know, we are changing the number ob bytes that VelBUS will receive from 5 to 2, and changing the UP/DOWN command (5/6) to the STOP command "4".

I guess that this will soon be corrected, but meanwhile there is a full proof solution using the correct protocols and commands, Ctech only forgot to include this in the functiond menu... I guess.

Thanks, the missing action has been included in the new Comfigurator 3.2.0
