aargh, RFlink R45 is not available on RFXcom?
the rainmeter arrived today but it does not connect to domoticz. In the list of available protocols in the hardware section of the rfxcom the RFlink protocol is NOT listed.
Suggestions?
Now this rain meter is
working with RFXCOM and on RFXtrx433E with Pro2 Firmware version 1031. Great !
My setup is:
domoticz 4.10717
RFXCom Pro XL1 fw 1041
Could someone help me out, or just point a direction on how to solve this?

FineOffset/WS1200 improved
If the sensor is not received in RFXmngr with FineOffset enabled contact support rfxcom.com

Yes, rainmeter now works with RFXCOM after firmware 1040, but problems from then on with Oregon Scientific:

Update:
I have the rainmeter running for almost a year now. It consumed two sets of batteries so far (2x AAA).
Nice to know, in case the batteries are running low, the rainmeter becomes a jamming device. It keeps transmitting rubbish and that causes interference on other RFXcom connected devices. So, replace the batteries betimes
