Can A Dimmer Switch Trigger Other Events?

The Dim with Me smartapp should do what you want.

Virtual Dimmer and Dim With Me

Created a new SmartThings “Virtual Dimmer” and a “Dim With Me” app that subscribes to it. Now I have many dimmers follow in unison. One virtual dimmer for each room group. My Tasker Gentle Wake-up task drives now only the virtual dimmer and the subscribed lights follow. Also, I can set the virtual dimmer level with Tasker and Autovoice. No lag or pause between each light getting a command. It works faster/better than the actual wall dimmer switches. This stuff is too cool!
