not able to send

[ageurtse]

hello i have aa cc1101 hooked up to a wemos D1 mini.

when hooking up i could recieve some data.

but when i resend this data there is nothing happening, the lights wont turn on. what could be wrong, how to find out what is wrong.

below is my yaml file

[dbuezas]

Try raw and paste the logs here: https://dbuezas.github.io/esphome-remote_receiver-oscilloscope/

It may be that it is recognized as "protocol 1" but it isn't. The full raw mode is more verbose but it doesn't assume any particular timing.

It can also be that your garage uses rolling codes, in which case the codes change all the time and transmitting won't work (unlikely)

[ageurtse]

I did read the raw data but at every key press the data isn't the same. Tommorow i will send the output of the raw data.

[dbuezas]

Make a couple of readings and paste the full log there, you'll be able to visualize it and see if they are truly different each time or just slight timing deviations (whis is normal and expected). If they do look the same in the plot, the n transmitting should work fine with those approximate flank timings. Much luck!

[ageurtse]

Past the raw messages in your tool, and they all look the same.

[dbuezas]

Ok, the plot looks like this should work, but you are missing the startTransmission lambda calls now. That may just be it! Also, make sure to pick the longer pattern from the ones you received. Good luck!

[ageurtse]

stupid me, had to sleep longer :-)

after altering nothing happens, i think i have to wait for a second CC1101, so i could monitor what is sending. since there is still no communication.

[dbuezas]

Hehe, yeah, the start and end transmission calls are easy to miss.

Try this:

code: [-50000, 386, -1113, 392, -1121, 1110, -394, 1119, -389, 360, -1132, 368, -1148, 360, -1156, 1093, -385, 385, -1129, 369, -1124, 386, -1130, 369, -1125, 1111, -392, 1116, -388, 1112, -394, 368, -1141, 1111, -393, 369, -1144, 1090, -400, 374, -1143, 365, -1140, 1103, -399, 1102, -405, 1102, -400, 1101, -380, 375, -1145, 350, -1138, 375, -1144, 364, -50000]

I added a "-50000" at the beginning and end to ensure the radio leaves enough space between repetitions. I suggest you do the repetitions through this instead: https://esphome.io/components/remote_transmitter.html?highlight=remote+transmitter#remote-transmitter-actions

Also, somebody else reported success using independent pins for receiving and transmitting here: https://github.com/dbuezas/esphome-cc1101/issues/2#issuecomment-1172924868

[ageurtse]

did recieve my second device but when trying to send data the other one isn't recieving the data, so looks like somthing is still wrong

[dbuezas]

Did you try the alternative at the end of #2 ?

[ageurtse]

i put your delay at the begin and at the end, but it still isn't working. don;t know what you mean with [Did you try the alternative at the end of https://github.com/dbuezas/esphome-cc1101/issues/2 ?]

if you mean, did you call endtransmission, than yes i did see my code.

below is how i wired my device: 1 GND GND
2 VCC VCC
3 GDO0 D1
4 CSN D8
5 SCK D5
6 MOSIO D7
7 MISO D6
8 GDO2 D2

this is the device i have:https://www.ebyte.com/en/downpdf.aspx?id=165

[dbuezas]

Follow the link to the other issue here: #2 This fellow used one pin for transmitting and another one for receiving, what makes the lambda calls unnecessary. He reported that that fixed some other issue I didn't have myself.

I see you already have GDO2 wired to d2, so you can use his modified yaml and cc1101.h files. He puts the chip in the right mode to use 2 wires. I did it with only 1 wire just because I have 3 chips and an IR receiver im the same board and ran out of pins :)

[ageurtse]

still no good, could it be that the c1101 v2 is somewhat different. Today i tryed the Somfy code from here and that one also didn't work. https://www.die-welt.net/2021/06/controlling-somfy-roller-shutters-using-an-esp32-and-esphome/

i build this one upon an esp32 and like the schematic that's on that page.

looks like this c1101 won't send data only recieve.

[dbuezas]

That's really odd. The only way I know to know for sure is to get an rtl-sdr

[ageurtse]

i will order some new ones at a different store with better reviews. after some digging i found out that there are a lot more problems with these modules.

[https://www.amazon.nl/-/en/gp/product/B07YX92NMP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1][(url)](https://www.amazon.nl/-/en/gp/product/B07YX92NMP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)

[dbuezas]

I bought 3 different ones in AliExpress and all worked. I guess i got lucky then

[ageurtse]

I also orderd 2 new ones from ali, lets hope they are working the way i want.

I have to wait till 20 september, so no more trying for me.

Keep you informed.

[dbuezas]

No RTL-SDR? 😁

[ageurtse]

No i dont't have 😣

[dbuezas]

Ask santa to get you one. You'll be able to see the spectrum. They are very fun

[ageurtse]

stil not working here, thinking of looking into a RTL-SDR. any advice on hardware and software. prefere free software and cheap hardware :-)

[ageurtse]

have a RTL-SDR and reciving things now reinstall the esphome rf transmitter to see if it sends data

it look like nothing is send, when pressing te remote there is data. when pressing the button within esphome nothing is displayed.

looks like somthing is wrong, all connectings are right, the device is recieving data, but not sending. I tryed the default c1101.h and the alterd one where gdo2 is used.

[dbuezas]

Can you post your yaml? Also, do you have the cc1101.h file untouched as in this repo?

[dbuezas]

Btw, you did confirm now with the rtl-sdr that the cc1101 is not sending, right?

[ageurtse]

i confirmed that my c1101 isn't sending.

below my cc1101.h file and yaml from the yaml file, i only pasted the sensor section, the rest is for configuration.

Did you see this? https://community.home-assistant.io/t/new-sonoff-rf-bridge-board-need-flashing-help/344326/134

It seems like there is a bug in esphome regarding transmission, and the post also has a workaround :)

[deanfourie1]

im having the same issues with the same module.

Update:

So I can see in the log of the receiver esp that it is receivng the RAW code, seems to spit out a random value, however my relay is still not activating.

[kgstorm]

One more data point: I have a cc1101 v2 as well, but a d1 mini, not lite. My cc1101 v2 DOES transmit with dbuezas’ yaml and .h file - although I struggled until getting an RTL-sdr.

[kgstorm]

A year later so not sure if this is still an issue, but wondering if you gave your esphome component, looks like you named yours ‘118-Rf-tranceiver’ homeassistant access. That tripped me up for a while. Without permission to home assistant, when you press the button, the component won’t be notified. To grant homeassistant permission, in home assistant, go to settings, devices & services, esphome, click ‘configure’ on your device, click ‘Allow the device to make Home Assistant service calls.’

[deanfourie1]

Guys, im still fighting this.

I am able to receive, but I cannot send. I have tried with dbuezas's yaml too.

Any ideas?

[dbuezas]

@deanfourie1 Do you have a second board or an stl-sdr to confirm that there is no signal being emitted? It is likely that transmission works, but there is an issue with the code so your receiver device is not accepting it

[deanfourie1]

Sorry, I do not. This is literally my first time working with 433 (or anything RF really)

However, I am transmissing RAW, and on RX I am dumping RAW.

RX is showing some noise, so im sure the RX is receiving data.

For the TX, im really not sure. I have another board I can use to test. Im working off this pinout.

I also added.

Recommend adding a simple logger.log in the action to make sure those lines are being executed:

button:
  - platform: template
    name: overkapping aan
    on_press:
      - logger.log: "Running button press"

If the logger.log statement doesn't print to the log, then likely the problem is that you didn't give your device permissions to access your home assistant instance.

[dbuezas]

@deanfourie1 what device are you trying to communicate with? The device may use a different style of communication (like modulating frequency) which will require a very different communication.

are you confident you have the right frequency? does the remote you are trying to reproduce have an FCC ID?

CC1101 to CC1101

So you do have a 2nd board?

that is a pretty short code... Can you send a log of what is received when you hit the remote button?

Yea sure, looks to be sending very random data.

[deanfourie1]

Units are very close together, not sure if that matters.

[deanfourie1]

Any idea what could cause sending of absolute random codes?

[kgstorm]

It doesn't look random. It looks very consistent. Those numbers are nanoseconds, so the measured duration fluctuating by +/- 20 nanoseconds is to be expected. try adding some delay to your repeat. maybe 10ms

          repeat: 
            times: 10
            wait_time: 10ms

Oh ok, however the strange thing is it is not triggering the garage binary sensor.

[deanfourie1]

Oh ok you legend! I think thats working.

It turns on and off so damn fast it almost hard to see.

[deanfourie1]

Is it possible to make it "latching" until a restore is sent. Like a door.
