How can I control what actions are available for a device in Home Assistant? I need activate the "brightness_move" action, but it does not seem to be available.

The device is a Nordtronic dimmer, and I get this error message:

Message malformed:  

value must be one of ['brightness_decrease', 'brightness_increase', 'flash', 'toggle', 'turn_off', 'turn_on'] for dictionary value @ data['type']

Note: From the specsheet: "move: this will automatically move the value over time, to stop send value stop or 0.". I would like to use this because it turns the brightness all the way up or down without turning on the light. I just want the light to be less bright when I turn it on at night so that it is not so blinding and does not wake me up so much.
