RFLink does open or shut blinds

Post by Hesitated »

Tonight I've got the RFLink installed and `programmed` my Somfy shutters.

In RFLink Loader this works:
10;RTS;0F0F0F;0;UP;

But sadly Domoticz is not doing anything...

The problem starts with the configuration of the hardware, the dropdownlist gives me the the options:
- /dev/ttyACM0
- /dev/ttyUSB0
- /dev/serial1
- /dev/ttyAMA0

I've tried all, but there is no difference.

I've added (manual) a switch of switchtype "Venetian blinds EU", type "RSY", ID "0F0F0F" and Unit Code "1".
In the logging pressing the created `icon`:
2018-12-30 00:35:49.256 Status: User: Admin initiated a switch command (58/Keuken/Off)
2018-12-30 00:35:49.257 Status: RFLink Sending: 10;RTS;0f0f0f;1;OFF

So I think it has to do with the command OFF, instead of "UP" or "DOWN".

How can i fix this?

You did not add the device correctly.
You need to remove the RSY or whatever thing you created.
Then go to the hardware tab and use the create manual device button behind the rflink hardware.
In the popup you will need to enter a command as how it was received in a log file.. thus:
10;RTS;0F0F0F;0;UP;
will become something like:
20;00;RTS;ID=0F0F0F;SWITCH=0;CMD=ON;
then the device will be created and you can change it to venetian blind type afterwards.

Thnxs! Now it works nicely... :D

But I've read the wiki and FAQ once again, but I could not find this information. Did I overlook it :oops:, or is there still some documentation to be done?
