I’ve loaded the alpha 6 files from the trunk. The RFXtrx channels still don’t match all channels of the Ikea Koppla receivers. Are you aware of that? Do you still want me to test for you?[/quote]
No, I understood from you previous message that all was ok with Ikea Koppla (in alpha 5)
When you create the device, you have to enter a system code from 1 to 16 and I shift it to 0-15 and keep this value for next usages.
What’s wrong exactly ?[/quote]
As I mentioned before, only the even channels from the RFXtrx matches the odd channels from the Kopple receivers, see tabel below.
RFXtrx system code Koppla/Ikea system code Match?
0 1 OK
1 2 NO
2 3 OK
3 4 NO
4 5 OK
5 6 NO
6 7 OK
etc
14 15 OK
15 16 NO
edit: Instead of the channel codes I meant the system codes. My apologies for the wrong use of words ???

Ok, that is clear now. That could be a bug in the RFXtrx in that case. RFXCOM is reading us but I will mail Bert to inform him.
Did you check if 1 (RFXtrx) is not matching 1 (Koppla) ?

Yes, I have tried out all possible combinations. I have already received a e-mail of Bert.
Together with Bert, the RFXtrx433 is now working fully with Ikea Koppla Receivers. Many thanks for your efforts.
To you and Bert a job well done. ;D ;D
Is it possible to have more than one RFXtrx433 device with your plugin?
I’m considering this because I’m having conflict with the protocols I want to have enabled.

Hi
I have not tested it but I see no reason why it should not be possible.
We will have to create two devices and associate each of them to a different serial port.

Remains to handle (by my plugin) multichannels commands coming from the remote. Unfortunately, it requires a major change in my plugin. Will be included in next version.

Lolodomo, I have now installed a second device.
My configuration is: Vera Lite → USB HUB (on external power) → 2 x RFXtrx433 devices, each with separate RFXtrx plugin device instance and port.
Works like a charm and no more protocol conflicts.

As I’m seriously looking to get one of these transceivers, I thought I would look at the wiki page RFXtrx Gateway however it’ actually shows me information on “Trac 0.12.3” !?
It would be really good to see an up to date user/install guide and the solution etc.
Has anyone found a way to read code from RF 433MHz to control the following Blind control reciever. This system was pre installed in my roller blinds that use a simple Remote control over 433MHz, I would like to find a way to read this code and program it using Vera RFXcom to send UP/Down to motor.
Have you tried it with the diagnostic utility on the computer? If this can see data being transmitted then you have a chance that support can be added for it.
If you mean using the RFXmngr, I am not really sure how this works. I have tried selecting seveal devices but once I select the receive tab and press the button on remote nothing comes up. Do you have any advice on how to use this program to wait for a none listed device so that it could at lease pick up the code from my hand held transmitter, It should pick up something as it is using the same frequency 433MHz. Any idears ?, or if there is any other softwarethat works with RFXcom so it could be put in a mode were it waits for a transmition and displays the code.
With the rfxmngr on windows i receive a lot of messages
i can install the plugin RFXtrx without error and i think it shoud be working.
I have the old usb rfx receiver from 2010.
I did some test from the forum with x10 devices (remotes, motion sensors dooralarms. But I don’t get new devices in my new vera lite.
Can this work without the alarmpannel or should it connectec to a alarmpannel?

Just noticed there is an error in D_RFXtrx.json. The PluginVersion and FirmwareVersion are appearing in the top of the Device creation which results in the House Code not being displayed.

Unfortunately, it is not a plugin bug but a firmware (1.5.408) bug

You have to discuss directly with RFXCOM. Normally, you have an option in the RFXmngr application to display undecoded message.
Of course, the Vera plugin can only manage devices that are first supported by the RFXtrx device.
and no more protocol conflicts.
