Re: Smarter way of using multiple remotes?!

Ooh that's interesting - hadn't realised you could set the modes through Domoticz. It really is the gift that keeps on giving!

Re: Smarter way of using multiple remotes?!

Awesome, I'll give it a try, thanks! Will have to get access to a PC as I'm Mac, and RFXmgr doesn't run on a VM for some reason - probably can't get the right hardware access to the USB port...

Re: Smarter way of using multiple remotes?!

What does ARC do exactly? When I was originally setting this up, I couldn't get the energenie to recognise the Homeeasy remotes at all...?

Re: Smarter way of using multiple remotes?!

Ah that sorted it, thanks - name is now script_device_remotes.lua and placed in the lua directory. Interestingly, although the script runs regardless of whether I create the remote as a main device, or as a slave device (for neatness), the 'if' statement only activates if it's a main device. I'm ...

Re: Smarter way of using multiple remotes?!

What should script_device be, given that there are multiple devices involved?

Re: Smarter way of using multiple remotes?!

Yes good point, updated it to the correct var name. Still not actually running the script though, it should at the very least print the first line... how do I active it?

Re: Smarter way of using multiple remotes?!

Ok, I've modified my script to the below... doesn't appear to be running though (tried restarting) - is there something I need to do to make the script active? print('My script is running!') commandArray = {} tc=next(devicechanged) cmd=devicechanged[dev] print(cmd) v=tostring(tc) if (v:sub(1,2 ...

Re: Smarter way of using multiple remotes?!

Great, that sounds logical. New to LUA but used to Python so should be ok. I've modified this from the howto, but not sure about my if statement, as I'm guessing I need to refer to a particular property of the device otherwise it's going to be referencing the device name rather than the state ...

Re: Smarter way of using multiple remotes?!

Ok, of course I was doing it the wrong way round, corrected that so that the remote is a sub/slave of the lights. The problem I've got is that if you use the remote (slave) to turn the lights on / off nothing happens. I guess that is because one is supposed to teach the device all the remotes that ...

Re: Smarter way of using multiple remotes?!

Actually, I don't think I've even understood the slave device idea correctly, as if I add the device I programmed (which itself works fine) as a slave device to a remote button, it doesn't actually turn the device on / off...?

Smarter way of using multiple remotes?!

So the scenario is, I have an Energenie 4 way power block. The RFXtrx can control it, but cannot 'hear' the remote that comes with it. So, step one, bin the Energenie remote. Now, I have homeeasy remotes, which are fine with Domoticz / RFX, but can't be learned by the Energenie. So, I add the ...
