There are two device types that may be of value:

"Dimmer Switch with Reset" is the standard "Dimmer Switch" device type with one additional command:

  resetLevel(value)

This can be used to change the dimmer level on the switch, and then immediately turning the switch off. Dimmers come on to their last value -- this command changes that last value so that the next time the switch is turned on, it comes on at the desired dimmer level. NB, there is an issue with this: it does not reliably change the value of device.currentValue("level"). This is due to the fast timing of resetting the level and then turning the dimmer off again. The dimmer level has been reset, but that won't be reflected in the currentState of the dimmer.

"Aeon Motor Controller" is a new device type for the Aeon Micro Motor Controller (DSC-14104 ZWUS). It provides the three commands the device is capable of, Up, Down, and Stop. There is a ReadMe for the device type with details.

There are some apps that you may find useful, perhaps for coding examples:

"Motion Controlled Lighting" is a new version of "Lights Turn On Motion", which is a shortcut SmartApp found in Lights & Switches. The latter has a bug affecting motion turning on the lights correctly around the time that they turn off. "Motion Controlled Lighting" fixes that bug while providing the same functionality (with a little bit more). As with the original shortcut app, this new app allows you to mix switches and dimmers, to specify a dimmer level for the dimmers, and to restrict the app by time, days, and mode.

"Button Controller+" is a modified version of the more recent version of ST app, Button Controller. It is used to setup an Aeon Minimote. This extended version allows additional control, including: on, off and toggle for lights; two different dimmer levels for dimmers; a ceiling fan one-button adjustment; and, a one button control of the Aeon Motor Controller.

"Mode Lighting" is a lighting controller that sets dimmer levels based on mode, incorporating motion on/off logic, as well as master-switch capability for both on and off. It supports a momentary button for triggering from a Minimote or Hello Home phrase. It has its own ReadMe with details.
