AMST-606 Door contacts

Post by mvisser »

Hi,

I have Domoticz running for quite a while now. Recently I have added an RFXCOM tranceiver to my system. It already controls an Action Doorbell perfectly. But now I'm trying to add a few AMST-606 door contacts with mixed results. I add the contacts with the "Learn" button, then opening the contact.

The first contact I added worked for 2 "switches" and then stopped working. I removed the contact from Domoticz, removed the battery and tried again. Since then, this contact is functioning. I want to add another 4 contacts in the same way as the other, but they will not add.
I get messages like "already in use by Bewegingssensor Woonkamer", but for most of the time I only get a Time-out.

Am I doing something wrong? Can you guys help me with some directions how to add my other door contacts?

Regards, Martijn

Try with only the AC protocol enabled and check if the sensors are correct received.

I've just tried, it doesn't fix my problem... Also did a firmware upgrade to ext2 /1020 after that, which didn't help either. I did get one more message "Already in use...", but that is a Philips Hue device. The other devices it mentioned are also Philips Hue devices, the only other 433 mhz device I've got is a Doorbell chime...

Please check with RFXmngr if the sensor is correct received with only the AC protocol enabled.
The timers are not enabled in the sensors?

Timers are disabled, I only receive data from the working door contact in RFXmngr. The other 2, which I took from the packaging this morning don't show data...

I just replaced the batteries with the ones that came with my cheapo door chime from Action, and presto, the door contacts work... So the KaKu batteries have worked for 1 minute, nice quality. Thanks for your help b_weijenberg!
