Silvercrest (Lidl) wireless socket set IAN 303937 UK

Hi there guys and gals

Popped into Lidl today and bought some of these wireless remote plug sockets for £12.95. Comes with 4 sockets and a basic On/Off remote. Thought these should be easy enough to get working with my RFXtrx433 USB transceiver and Domoticz. Lo and behold, it has become a bit of a mystery as to how they work.

What i know so far is that the remote uses Lighting 4, PT2262 protocol. I can get Domoticz to learn each button as a separate On/Off button. In the Domoticz log, i get a random number of different commands sent from the remote, usually between 1 and 3. To pair the sockets, you simply plug them in and they go into learning mode for 30 seconds. What i have tried is learning all the separate commands sent from one button push on the remote, then tried sending each one to get the socket to work. It seems to work intermittently at best, but it is not really practical. I have tried updating the RFX firmware.

In the mean time i will do some more experiments but if anyone could help me, i would be very grateful!!

Thanks

Is it operating with Lighting4 and AC enabled in the latest Pro firmware?

Hi there

As i only have a rfxtrx433 (not a rfxtrx433E) i dont think i can use the pro firmware (can i?)

Thanks

The RFXtrx433 does not support this protocol.
This protocol is only supported by Ext2 and Pro1 firmware for the RFXtrx433E or ProXL1 firmware for the RFXtrx433XL.

I just got a RFXtrx433 used.

Can anyone please let me know where I can find which protocols are not supported compared to the newer variations?

See chapter 2.2.2 in the RFXtrx User Guide for the list of supported protocols.
