No problem , I just wanted to encourage you. Try this script then:

Code: Select all

#Broadcast RFXtrx events
newEvent = str(eg.event.suffix)
newPayload = str(eg.event.payload)
port = 33333

a = newPayload.split(':')
b = a[1]
c = b.split(' ')
d = str(c[1])

res = eg.plugins.BroadcastListener.Broadcast(
        d,
        'empty',
        port
      )

It can be written more efficient but it gives you the idea,

Best regards, Walter

Hey,

I'm new to EventGhost, I used it about 6 months ago for some basic tasks but that was it. Now I have my RFXtrx I need to use it more. And so far it's been pretty easy going.

But, I have the OWL CM113 which is being picked up by the RFXtrx and using RFXmngr I get all the details from it;

Code: Select all

0D590123E3002E001A0000000059
Packettype    = CURRENT
subtype       = ELEC1 - OWL CM113, Electrisave, cent-a-meter
Sequence nbr  = 35
ID            = 58112
Count         = 0
Channel 1     = 2.6 ampere
Channel 2     = 0 ampere
Channel 3     = 0 ampere
Signal level  = 5
Battery       = OK
But in event ghost I get

Code: Select all

Unknown message: ['0d', '59', '01', '17', 'e3', '00', '2e', '00', '1d', '00', '00', '00', '00', '49']
I have had a look through previous posts in this thread and saw the ones about the OWL CM119/160 on page 5 from a few months back but I'm assuming these fixes which come from that don't cover the CM113?

Basically, how can I have event ghost read the message from the OWL CM113? Do I need to make any changes anywhere? Is it a case of an update to the plugin?

Apologies if I'm asking a stupid question here, I've literally only just started playing with event ghost and the RFXtrx.

Thanks,
RIch

Yes it is needed, I will look into it, it might not be too hard now when I have the details you provided.

Thanks, that was fast!

I'll give it a try when I get home tonight and let you know what happens.

Edit.

Forgot I had Team Viewer installed... Just tried it and it works.

Hi could you please tell me how to control the HE105 via event ghost and this plug in. I can control it with the rfxmanager using the HE tab but it won't control with the AC codes. Any ideas please

Yes I can, it is not possible. There is no support implemented in the plugin for controlling HE105.

In due time I will look into this. If I add it, would you be kind to try it and then report back your results?

I get an error when activating X10 lighting, ARC and so on (I use ARC for motion detectors and a few other things). I don't know if it affects the performance of the plug-in. Here's the error code:

Code: Select all

Hi Pallantir,
I do not see any ref to the RFXtrx plugin in your error log. It seems you are running a script of some kind that causes the problem. Try to describe the steps I can follow to reproduce your problem.

I see! Sorry, I don't know my ass from my elbow... :mrgreen: I have disabled everything here now, and I still get the error. Strange thing, earlier today it seemed to come and go with the X10 disabling and enabling. So then I have no idea what's wrong. I have no scripts that should cause this, even disabling everything in my setup. I have not messed with any files, but I will try to reinstall EventGhost, it may be something that's become garbled.

Edit: Installing the latest version didn't change anything. But it doesn't seem like it affects what actions I have, so I'll leave it for now.

Sorry for this NOOB question, I just ran into this RFXtrx433 module and would like to controll my "KlikaanKlikUit devices.

Is this possible with this plugin? What device do I select to controll "KlikAanKlikUit" devices with RFXtrx?

It should work with the ARC protocol

ARC protocol
ARC is the protocol used by different brands with units having code wheels A-P/1-16:
KlikAanKlikUit, NEXA, CHACON, HomeEasy, Proove, DomiaLite, InterTechno, AB600
