Friedland DC44 PIR

Post by Lorccan »

Does anyone know if it's possible to use these PIRs with Domoticz? I have an RFXtrx433E that's working fine with other devices, but I can't seem to be able get this detected (when I trigger it).

Is there something different about adding a PIR compared to a light switch?

Is it on the supported device list of the RFXcom? (see RFXcom site)

I find the RFXcom site confusing. There doesn't seem to be a straightforward list of supported devices, so I have emailed them.

I don't think the RFLink is the same thing as RFXtrx433E, is it?

I'm 100% sure it isn't

I heard back from Bert at RFXcom. He doesn't know the device, but recommended trying the RFXmngr to see if it would connect.

I am trying this now and going through the various receive modes, but can't seem to get anything.

The thing that I don't understand is that if it's transmitting on 433MHz, I would expect to see something - even raw data, but I am not sure whether this is supported by RFXmngr. Does anyone have any experience or advice to offer please?

(I am working through each of the modes In the Main tab and triggering the PIR, but so far without any success. I'm not sure that I am doing this right!)

Did you get anywhere with this? I bought 4 of these DC44s a while back but also can't get them to register. Haven't played with RFXmngr yet though.
