Hi,

kind regards
Richard

Hi namefellow

I have some of the 'old' KaKu (Klik aan Klik uit) stuff, a remote control, wall switches/outlets and a doorbell. All of the 'old' KaKu stuff i can receive (parts wich are sending) with my RFXCom Receiver, with my RFXCom Transmitter i can switch (parts wich are receiving) the wall outlets and doorbel.

With the 'old' KaKu stuff i mean the previous line of products. This line has the possibility to setup a housecode (A..F) AND a device code (1..16). The 'new' line of KaKu stuff (the picture on the site of your url is showing the 'new' line) is somekind of autosensing/autolearning and has only a housecode setup, so i don't know if it's gonna work. Maybe Bert can tell you more about it, or you have to wait to upcomming weekend so i can test the 'new' type of outlet. (if you want me too offcourse)

I only can say at this moment.. the new line 's.c.s' big time , it happens verry often that my light(s) are switched on by some neighbour? electrical power peak? noise on the powerlines? so... in my opinion: don't go there

Richard,

FWIW: I received a message today that a 'new' KAKU device i installed recently (see http://www.domoticaforum.eu/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=485) is not functioning anymore...

Hi First Richard
Interesting project the "Rommelkist"
thanks for the link

It's form the forum of tweakers.

Yes I saw, I think I am gonna experiment with the 433 transmitter and Winlirc
Nice little project.

I just bought the components, and a 433mhz transmitter on samenkopen.net for 2,75euro.

I let you know it it works ok.

I;m also curious if the signals i send, can be received with the rfxcomm. Maybe over couple of months i can buy a rfxcomm

kind regards

Richard

Well Pieter it works ok. As well in Windows as in Linux with Lirc (Winlirc). I still have the components for a second one, so if you are interested.

Hi Richard,
Good to hear it works ok!
Yes I want to built one as well, so if you don't need the extra set yourself I surely want to take over.
Mail me offline please
Thanks Pieter

Hi!

I have also just built the device as described on the url above.
Also found here:
http://gathering.tweakers.net/forum/lis ... /1077675/0

Using Lirc on Linux i am now able to transmit and receive Kaku and X10 RF signals. In combination with some custom scripts (still developing) and my good old CM11 i can now combine X10 with Kaku and probably all those other cheap home control sets. There should be no difference, i think i can 'record' and 'play back' any signal on the 433,92 Mhz frequency.
I think a RFXCOM should also be able to pick up these signals, but if and how they are processed i don't know, that is why i built this.

Siewert

Yep, this is the one I'm gonna built as well!
Thanks for all the information!
Regards Pieter

Ik kwam nog een inkoopactie tegen die wel erg goedkoop is.
