Hello,
I’m not very tech-savvy, which is why I’m reaching out for some help.
My RFXCOM, which was connected to my Raspberry Pi 3 for Domoticz, has stopped working.
I’ve received a new RFX-433EMC, but for the past two days, I’ve been struggling to get my weather sensors to show up.
The RFXCOM is properly connected to the Wi-Fi—my Raspberry Pi indicates that the signal is excellent. However, even though I’ve enabled the option to accept new devices in Domoticz, nothing is appearing.
I have the RFXCOM’s IP address (192.168.1.100) and port (10001). I’ve set up a hardware device in Domoticz using the "RFXCOM - RFXtrx shared over LAN interface" type.
For the time being, I’m powering it with my laboratory power supply at 5.36V, and it’s drawing 0.05 A.
Where am I going wrong? Thanks in advance.

Re: RFXCOM WIFI
Use a good 5v power supply, at least 2A. See the RFX User Guide.
Connect RFXmngr and check if it operates OK.
No need to disconnect Domoticz as you can connect 2 applications on wfi.

Re: RFXCOM WIFI
Thanks for the reply.
The RFXCOM is properly powered with 5V 2A.
Yesterday, he retrieved 3 components of my weather station for me. These 3 components appeared correctly in Domoticz, and I confirmed them. But now, only one of them has updated. In RFXmngr, the RFXCOM is correctly connected (see attached photo), but its behavior is very strange. . I tried to get a small Chinese relay—which worked perfectly fine with the other RFX unit—to be recognized, but nothing happened; there was no reaction at all.
It’s very strange—it’s as if the RFXCOM goes into a sleep mode and is unable to wake back up.

Re: RFXCOM WIFI
test with only the protocol enabled for the weather sensor.

Re: RFXCOM WIFI
Okay, I understand; I’ve enabled only the Ogeron protocol, but it’s been over two hours since I made the change and nothing has happened. There have been no updates—other than the same one that appeared previously. I should also mention that all the devices are powered via AC adapters.
The sensors are all powered by mains adapters, so there are no issues with batteries. Furthermore, I have replaced my laboratory power supply—which was powering the RFXCOM—with a 230V/5V 2.5A power supply.
