PT2262 switches

Post by GSV3Miac »

I have a bunch of these, which I can register with Dom using the supplied remote and a RFXCOM transceiver, but (as others have noted) on/off are actually sent to the relays as two separate channel/ID 'on' commands. Has anyone got an elegant solution (plugin or otherwise) for making a Dom 'switch' device which calls the appropriate on / off sender (each of which will send an 'on' to the appropriate device address for on, or off).

Yes, I can set up a virtual switch and write some LUA or whatever to handle it, but that's not elegant, especially if you have a lot of switches (I did find the '$name' trick to hide the actual sending switches from the dashboard, which helps a bit).

I know these are old technology, but actually they are a lot cheaper (1/4 of the cost), and seemingly more reliable / longer range, than z-wave equivalents (I have a couple of those too).

Looking for this too, I know have two buttons (Push on and Push off), not practical and you don't see the status

In the end I set them up using 'manual switch', type rfxcom, coco gdr2, and then input the appropriate channel (A->D and 1-4) and tested them.
That works OK. You may have to hunt to find the correct setup .. this worked for energenie and the SMJ devices, but I couldn't get some older Lloytron models to play properly.

I ended up making a short dzVents script for both of them... Ah well.
