Conrad RSL switch

Post by Bram »

Hello,

I'm trying to make a switch for a heater (2000w) so I use a Conrad remote switch (https://www.conrad.nl/nl/rsl-draadloze- ... 40303.html).

But when I want to add it is is not working. So I follow the steps:
1. under settings tab, make sure "accept new hardware/sensors is enabled.. if not enable it and disable when done.
2. go to hardware tab
3. press create rflink device
4. enter string: 20;21;Conrad;ID=220c49;SWITCH=01;CMD=ON;
5. press OK
6. go to devices tab find the new conrad device, press green arrow and name it
7. go to switches tab and locate the new device
8. set the switch in learning mode and press "ON" on the device to pair it to the switch.

At step 8 however nothing happens. Should I enter a different string? Or protocol? Or is my device not supported yet?

Hope someone is able to help :D

That's a very bad switch, it pollutes your whole RF network every xx seconds.
Not recommended in any house for home automation
In this case, i would buy a good KaKu WCD
Quality outlives Quantity!

Thanks for the quick reply.
I've now bought the KaKu switches. But as you mention that there are specific devices that do and don't work. Is there a common practice of what the brands/types are that work (apart from kaku)?

The socket is fine. It does not transmit.
RFLink transmits RSL commands without polluting the frequency band.
If you want to pair a RSL switch you cna use the following command:
10;CONRAD;220c49;1;PAIR;
