RFXtrx433 not recoginzed by Domoticz

[Goro]

I'm setting up a Pi 4 Model B with Domoticz and want to use my RFXtrx433, but the RFX does not turn up under Hardware in Domoticz no matter how I try. I tried Debian Bookworm 64-bit (released 2024-07-04) on a USB stick and Bookworm 32-bit (released 2024-07-04) on a micro-SD, in case there was some problem related to USB ports, but no difference. I guess this may be easily solved for someone a bit more skilled. Would be grateful for some ideas on how to proceed.

Hi @Goro,

Do first a check in order to see, if the RFXCom is recognized by your Rasberry Pi 4.

Code: Select all

dmesg|grep RFXCOM

If it is recognized it will show something as:

Code: Select all

[    5.966967] usb 1-1.4: Manufacturer: RFXCOM

If this is the case, follow then the guideline in the Wiki: https://domoticz.com/wiki/PersistentUSBDevices

Succes

Thanks FireWizard, unfortunately I got stuck again. The device is indeed recognized by the Pi and when I run the first command suggested in the guideline I get the below, which as far as I understand should be OK. The guideline then instructs how to manage a situation with several USB devices connected, but presently I have only the RFXcom as the system is on a micro-SD. It just doesn't turn up on the Hardware list of Domoticz. Some further suggestions are more than welcome ...

Sorry, forget about the above, problem solved. Real noob mistake ...

Hi #Goro,

Can you tell us, what the real cause was, as it may help others, who are in the same situation?
