Homeseer event problem w. RFXCOM/Kaku

Post by Arjen »

I've made an event in HS2 which turns off all devices in the living room (2xDAIX, 3xKaku), but it does not function very well.

The event uses an action list with 5 device lines and command 'off'

Every device turns off, but the log shows:

With the DAIX nothing special, but the repetitive Off commands for the Kaku go on for about 30 minutes!

@Bert: has it something to do with the RFXCOM plugin??

Thanx!

BTW my current config: HS2.3.0.39/RFXCOM eth X10/Visonic/Plugwise/CTX35

Homeseer event problem w. RFXCOM/Kaku

Post by b_weijenberg »

I suppose you mean KAKU but is nice to see that KiKa is in your mind.

Have you enabled the HS flag in the transmitter configuration?
If the HS flag is not set the transmitted signal will be received again and if the house code is also enable in the RFXCOM - X10 config it will trun in a loop.

Solution:
Enable the HS flag in the transmitter config,
Disable the X10 house code for all house codes used as Output device,
Use different house codes for wall switches, motion sensors etc then used for Output Devices,
Enable in the transmitter only the protocols to be used.

When using the new KAKU modules: create 1 Output device that is also programmed in all KAKU modules that have to be switched on and off at the same time. Use this code to switch all light on/off. You can program up to 6 device codes in a KAKU module so you can still control each individual KAKU module.
