Doorbell that doesn't interfere with OWL (Oregon)

Hi All,

i found out the hard way that my doorbell is conflicting with my OWL CM119 energy monitor and i have to choose between the 2 :-( so for now as all i use the doorbell/byron SX protocol for is to notify if someone presses the doorbell, decided the doorbell was the thing to lose... after disabling the byron SX protocol my livolo switches being intermittent seems to be resolved... (co-incidence i'm sure)

anyway anyone recommend a doorbell that doesn't use the byron SX protocol, anything that uses AC? preferably cheap... lol

LightwaveRF is also using the Byron SX protocol!

Double post:
The KAKU chimes use the AC protocol and can be used together with Oregon 3.0/OWL

If so, what's the meaning of protocol named "AD/LightwaveRF"? Does both have to be enabled to get LightwaveRF devices working?

even if it didn't use the Byron SX, the AD/LightwaveRF protocol also affects Oregon given as one of the examples in the UserGuide 2.4

The AD/LightwaveRF is only used for the 433.92MHz lighting products!
Check chapter 2 in the RFXtrx User Guide for the full list of supported devices. Tecknet is not in this list.

If the AD/LightwaveRF protocol is only used for their lighting products, surely there is never a need to have this checked. I understood that the Lightwaverf lighting doesn't send any status feedback and the RFXtrx433 was able to transmit on all regardless of what protocols were checked. Have I missed something really obvious?

The LWBP2107 LightwaveRF push button can be used with the AD/LightwaveRF protocol.

Set the four DIP switches in the LWBP2107 push button numbered 1234, with 0=off,1=on as follows:
1001 "On"
1010 "Off"

Ok, thanks. I don't have this doorbell but do have lots of LWRF light switches and so had the AD/LightwaveRF protocol enabled although It now seems I didn't need to. I've unchecked this now in the hope it might mean my Owl monitors are received better/more frequently.
