piVCCU partially lost connection to HMIP devices

[flipreverse]

Hi folks!

Since my upgrade to Debian 12, my piVCCU cannot reach any HMIP device the three heating valves anymore. The HMIP window sensors are, however, available. Does anyone have an idea where to look first? Is this even the right place to address this issue?

Regards, Alex

Is the HmIP-RFUSB directly attached to the Pi, or do you have a distance of at least 1m between Pi and stick? The Pi 4 produces a lot of radio interference on 868MHz which causes such issues, the only way to solve this is getting a distance of at least 1m.

I did that. But it didn't really work. However, I restarted piVCCU. Everthing is online again. :-/
