on/off switch, push on buttons and subdevice/slave

Post by justme »

Hello everybody,

I am trying to figure things out on domoticz.

I have:
- rfxcom 433 usb device
- klik aan klik uit dimmerswitch
- klik aan klik uit wall switch
- klik aan klik uit remote
- some cheap chinese multibutton control on RF

What i am trying to accomplish:
- detect that klik aan klik uit wall switch (works!)
- detect the correct remote switch (works!)
- detect the 4 buttons on that chines control (works!)
- make domoticz send the correct klik aan klik uit signals via rfxcom when i klik the on/off switch in the domoticz UI (works!)
- make domoticz send the correct klik aan klik uit signal for 'ON' via rfxcom when i hit A button on the chines remote
- make domoticz send the correct klik aan klik uit signal for 'OFF' via rfxcom when i hit A button on the chines remote

When i now set the wall switch as a subdevice/slave device on the remote switch, whenever i toggle either of them, the dimmer is switched on or off, no issue.

But using the button A and B as 'switch on' and 'switch off' doe absolutely nothing at all..

I tried:
- make the 'A button' and 'B button slave of the wall switch: it does seem to toggle the switch on and off, depending on the button pressed, but no signal is sent to the dimmer
- make the wall switch a slave of the A and B button: switches off with each one, and no signal is sent via the rfxcom

So my question is: is this idea at all possible? And if so: how to accomplish this???

(yes, i updated domoticz to the latest version, if i check for updates: none are found).

Did you try with a Scene? Create a new scene, learn button A from the Chineese remote, add the switch of RFXCom in there to turn on the wall switch/plug/socket
When you now press button A on the Chineese remote, it should send out a correct 433Mhz signal via RFXCom
Quality outlives Quantity!
