How to get a RTL-SDR receiver on a Synology NAS
Posted: Saturday 27 March 2021 15:26
Hi there,
I am stuck getting a USB RTL-SDR receiver to function in Domoticz.
I am running Domoticz on a Synology NAS in a Docker container.
This setup is running stable with a UBS Zwave dongele and A RFXCOM PRO/XL transceiver for a while now.
I am now in the process of adding a USB RTL-SDR dongle to get support for a few specific 433mhz devices which the RFXCOM does not support.
I have not installed any specific RTL-SDR USB drivers on my Synology NAS, only the driverpack from "http://www.jadahl.com"
The RTL433 worker in Domoticz does start, but I can not pick up any 433mhz devices?
Is it correct that the RTL USB dongle does not have a USB port (see hardware screenprint)
Do I manually have to install RTL drivers?, My Synology NAS seems to recognize the RTL gongle.
Or am I doing something else wrong?
Hope that some of you experts can give me advice or point me in the good direction on how to get the USB RTL-SDR dongle functioning in Domoticz . I am not a Linux command line expert, so perhaps my questions sound stupid, forgive me....
