Java Error with Shades in Rule Action

I created some actions in RM to raise/lower my Lutron shades in response to crossing a threshold in illuminance value from a virtual weather device. The trigger seems to work okay, but I'm getting the following error in my logs:

So the question is, why isn't "up" a supported command? Should I be using a different type of action? I'm currently using the action under "Control Motorized Shades" > "Lower this shade".

Update: I changed the action to a dimmer action and it works as expected, but still curious why the lower/raise shade actions throw errors.

That's a legacy command in rm, 2.0.9 will have a fix for this.

Ah, thanks @mike.maxwell. Much appreciated. Hopefully we'll see that along with tilt support for blinds as well. :slight_smile:
