RFXtrx433e and Bofu Blinds

[Richie1972]

Ok,
Finally took a chance and splashed out on the RFXtrx433e in the hope of controlling my recent purchase of some cheapy Bofu blinds motor (EY25)

Unfortunately I just can't get it to work - even with the latest Firmware 1013 (Ext2 version) - see RFXtrx1.png.
I have just the Blind T0 checked - see RFXtrx2.png.
I have also clicked the Allow for 5 Minutes button in Settings before pressing the buttons on my blinds remote.
Nothing appears in the Domoticz log and no blinds device (T0, Hasta, etc as others have reported).

I know that the RFXtrx433e is working as i do see a couple of devices appear later in the day (presumably devices owned by my neighbours).

There doesn't seem to be anything in the RFXMngr app that reports any "received" signals and, weirdly, the T0 Blind option is greyed out in that app - although is selectable in Domoticz.

Can anyone shed any light on what I must be doing wrong?

Thanks,
Richie

With Type2 firmware you can select and receive BlindsT0.
See also chapter 2.2.2. in the RFXtrx User Guide.

Is Ext2 not the same as Type2 (Type2 being for the RFXtrx433 and Ext2 being for the RFXtrx433E)?
If it is the same, then i am already running it.
If I need to have Type2 (not Ext2) in my RFXtrx433E then i will try that tomorrow.
Can you clarify this?

Thanks,
Richie

Just flashed Type2 on it and it works .

Thanks - my fault for misunderstanding that Type2 and Ext2 are NOT the same

Type2 with BlindsT0 enabled is only used to get the ID of the Bofu remote.
If you like you can now use Ext or Ext2 firmware to control Bofu.
