Harrison Curtains in Home Assistant
Posted: Thu Jan 19, 2023 12:38 am
Moved the last few weeks from Homeseer to Home Assistant, and with reading and many help from others managed to have almost everything working now... except for my Harrison curtains (quite old ones).
I read on the home assistant forum that I need to connect the RFXTRX to the RFXmanager and try to send the relevant codes. Which I did and these produce the following output (one example for opening one curtain).
================================================
18-1-2023 10:37:11:742= Curtain command
================================================
Packettype = Curtain1
subtype = Harrison
Sequence nbr = 7
housecode = A
unitcode = 3
Command = Open
Signal level = +10 dBm
------------------------------------------------
18-1-2023 10:37:12:404= 0402014300
Packettype = Receiver/Transmitter Message
subtype = Transmitter Response
Sequence nbr = 67
response = ACK, data correct transmitted
------------------------------------------------
The forum post stated that I need to use the "04 02 01 43 00" as an event (with some code in the configuration file). Unfortunately this doesn't work, but I think it is related to the fact that most examples have far more characters like: event: "07 18 00 0D 46 0F 02 00" and I see that the example uses 07 18 00 for all other send commands. Anyone knows how I can retrieve these (and whether that is my problem at all?
