Unable to set Mode on RFXCom

Hi
I am unable to set a new mode for my RFXCom from Domoticz - other than that RFXCom is working fine receiving and transmitting ok.

If I click the 'Set Mode' button it dumps me back to the Dashboard with no changes to the ticked protocols.

I see the following lines in the log:
subtype = Interface Command
Sequence nbr = 11
set configuration of the interface

Running v3.5837 on Ubuntu Linux 14.04 RFXcom Firmware 246

I had the same issue after updating Domoticz. It went away after updating the firmware on my RFXCom. Still have other problems with RFXCom,

Thanks Felix63 -I updated to firmware 1008 and it works. However 1008 doesn't receive my Alecto WS1700 temperature sensors. Domoticz doesn't like the 251 or similar firmware's - it mis-reports the firmware version as well as the inability to set modes as in my original post. To get round the issue I think i can set the RFXcom protocols on my windows PC and make sure it is receiving all my devices, then plug back in to my linux box.

I am not sure why there are different RFXcom firmware variants?

if you read the manual you'll see there are two types of devices 433 and 433E. For both types there are two different firmware versions. In my case I could choose between EXT and EXT2. In the manual you can see that each version supports a different combination of devices.

The Alecto WS1700 is reported to work with both firmware version but only on the RFXtrx433E.
