RFXCOM and undecoded RF messages in OH2

Add-ons Bindings
1

Hello,

The RFXCOM binding is working perfectly and I can control QNECT PROFILE RF power plugs with OH2.

With the RFXMngr under Windows, I discovered the HEX RF code of the remote of my garage door by using the undecoded option. However I’m not able to transmit it. Probably I’m doing something wrong but I don’t find any OH2 examples and the documentation is too brief for me.

Things:

Bridge rfxcom:bridge:usb1 [ serialPort="/dev/ttyUSB1", transmitPower=10 ] {
    Thing lighting5 remote3_2     [deviceId="3884.2" ,  subType="KANGTAI"]
    Thing undecoded remote_garage [subType="ARC"    ]
}

Items:

Switch Plug_Spare  "Plug Spare" <poweroutlet> { channel="rfxcom:lighting5:usb1:remote3_2:command" }
String GarageDoor  "Garage Door"<garagedoor>  { channel="rfxcom:undecoded:usb1:remote_garage:rawpayload" }

sitemap:

Switch item=GarageDoor mappings=["ABCDEF12345689"=OPEN, ""=CLOSE]

Could somebody help me?

Kind regards,
Jan

These appear to be backwards. The docs appear to show it should be:

Switch item=GarageDoor mappings=[OPEN="ABCDEF12345689", CLOSE=""]

Tried your suggestion, but no success.

Manual for mappings says: value1=“description1”. When you press the button with description1, value1 is assigned to the parameter. My sitemap displays the two buttons: OPEN and CLOSE. But if I press on OPEN nothing is transmitted.

I saw I didn’t put the description between quotes. By doing this, the resulting sitemap looks the same and this doesn’t solve the problem either.

Switch item=GarageDoor mappings=[“ABCDEF12345689”="OPEN", “”="CLOSE"]

It appears the you will have to play with the device subtype:
At the moment you have “ARC”
These are the others available:

  • AC - AC

  • ARC - ARC

  • ATI - ATI

  • HIDEKI_UPM - Hideki, UPM

  • LACROSSE_VIKING - La Crosse, Viking

  • AD - AD

  • MERTIK - Mertik Maxitrol Fireplace controllers

  • OREGON1 - Oregon Scientific 1

  • OREGON2 - Oregon Scientific 2

  • OREGON3 - Oregon Scientific 3

  • PROGUARD - ProGuard

  • VISONIC - Visonic

  • NEC - NEC

  • FS20 - FS20

  • RESERVED - Reserved

  • BLINDS - Blinds

  • RUBICSON - Rubicson

  • AE - AE

  • FINE_OFFSET - Fine Offset

  • RGB - RGB

  • RTS - RTS

  • SELECT_PLUS - Select Plus

  • HOME_CONFORT - Home Confort

Hopefully one of these will work. They have to do will the signal modulation and coding

I used “ARC” because this is how the RFXMgr displayed the undecoded message when I pressed the remote.

I would realy like to see a working example of this RFXCOM-binding with undecoded message (things + items + sitemap).
