Take a look at the WindowProperty:ShadingControl documentation here. There are various control types available.

If that isn't sufficient for what you need then it is likely to be easier to write an EMS program rather than link with external software.

There is also a tutorial online on how to model shading controls in OpenStudio here.. You can often find details on how to do things in OpenStudio by using the EnergyPlus help documentation (as @Waseem says) since OpenStudio uses EnergyPlus as its calculation engine.
