Solved: RFXCom and LightWaveRF lights turn on but not off

Hi Guys,

Something strange going on, i can only assume i have done something wrong (or is the incorrect data being send by the plugin?) but got my LightwaveRF switch linked into openHab 1.8.3 last night and the “on” message is working fine. However then i try to turn it off, nothing happens. i can see in the log (below) everything looks ok, its sending the same message just with the state=‘OFF’ and not ‘ON’, just nothing happens. The “ON” works every time.

ON debug:

If anyone can help, it would be much appreciated.

Sorted. Needed to update my RFXCOM

V1005 has some lightwave updates but V77 has “LightwaveRF Off corrected”

If anyone else has the same problem, just update to 1006 or more.
