Update 2019

Starting with Adaxes 2019.1 it is possible to manage calendar permissions in Adaxes Web interface and Administration console without using scripts. Also, it can be automated using the Modify Exchange properties action. For details, have a look at the following tutorial: https://www.adaxes.com/tutorials_AutomatingDailyTasks_AutomateExchangeMailboxConfiguration.htm#collapse_cal_perms.

Hello,

When accessing Exchange functions from PowerShell scripts, you need to use PowerShell remoting and access your Exchange server withing a Remote PowerShell session as recommended by Microsoft.

Here's how you can execute your command in a script launched by Business Rules, Custom Commands or Scheduled Tasks:

$exchangeServer = "ExchangeServer.com" # TODO: Modify me

$session = new-pssession -connectionURI "http://$exchangeServer/powershell" -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange
Import-PSSession -session $session

Add-MailboxFolderPermission -Identity $Mailbox":\Kalender" -User $Benutzer -AccessRights $AccessType

Remove-PSSession -Session $session

In the above code snippet, $exchangeServer specifies the DNS name of the computer where your Exchange Server is installed.

It would be very handy to be able to still use the Old Model permissions on Exchange Calendars. There is no middle ground in the new permissions. Full Details allows Read All permissions and Can Edit is basically Edit All permissions. It would be very handy to be able to add the old permissions if needed. Author comes to mind.
