RFX has stopped working

Hello all,
Who can help me or has an explanation for my problem?
I have been using Domoticz with RFX for months. Everything worked fine. Since this morning I have the following problem.
1 All kaku devices do not respond when controlled by the scripts and dummy switches. With the manual loose kaku switches I can turn the devices on and off.
I tried everything like restarting the NAS, removing the USB plug and putting it back in again. I can't get the case going anymore.
Who knows what to do?
Gr, Peter

What's in the log?
Do you use persistent usb devices? ( Described
on this wiki page )

Check with RFXmngr if the RFXtrx operates correct. The red LED should blink with a transmit command.

The same USB output is always used for rfx. As far as I know Rfx manager is only available for Windows. I am using mac and synology (linux). Last night it worked spontaneously again, but this morning the devices stopped responding.

Every 5 second the red led on the rfx device goes ON en then the green led blinks af few seconds. Then both goes off. After a few seconds this repeats.

2 possibilities:
1 the RFXtrx restarts due to power drops (check the USB cable and USB power)
2 you transmit every 5 seconds an RF command.
Find a friend with a Windows system and run RFXmngr.

I have attached a disk to the USB output of the NAS, it works so that is okay. Go get a new cable tomorrow. Is the length of the USB cable important?

Yesterday new cable. Reset Synology NAS. It worked until this morning. Then it stopped again.
Now I get this in the log:
