Not receiving signals anymore.

Post by roblom »

For some reason my rfxcom doesn't receive signals anymore in Domoticz. Is does send signals.
When I use the rfxcom with the rfxmanager it works normal (so receive and sending).
I've changed several firmware but it doesn't help.
I've set it to default so undecoded for example is off.
I don't see any error measures regarding the rfxcom in the log.
Somebody an idea?

An almost dead battery in a PIR maybe? This can screw up your RF reception.

If possible, check your RFXtrx433E on another location (>500 meters away) on a laptop with RFXmngr.

It could be any sensor or remote with an almost empty battery or a sensor filled with water or a button pressed on a remote.
In most cases it was a X10 MS13 sensor with almost empty battery or an outside sensor filled with water (also check outside sensors from your neighbor).
RFX-433, RFX-433EMC, RFX-868

Seems like my owl was causing the problem, it had a dead battery. Strange that a dead battery is causing the device blocking all other signals.
Thanks for the tip.
