RolloTron-Basis-DuoFern-1200 open/close not possible #8

Closed tringler closed 2 years ago

tringler commented 3 years ago

Hello,

I was able to pair my RolloTron-Basis-DuoFern-1200. The state is reported correctly (position and state), but open_cover and close_cover is not working. I don't see any error in the logs.

How I can troubleshoot that?

gluap commented 3 years ago

@tringler I added a few new Roller shutter IDs which might fix your issue. Could you try upgrading to 0.2.0-beta?

If not: Could you share the ID of the shutter where you are facing the issue and possibly the duofern-related parts of your homeassistant log?

tringler commented 3 years ago

It is expected, that I don't see 0.2.0-beta in HACS? I updated cover.py manually, but after a HA restart it is still not working.

I also see no devices/entities attached to the integration in HA.

The id should be 40 - I see no logs related to DuoFern. I can plug the stick into another raspberry and try to play around with DuoFernPy to get more information.

Any other ideas?

@tringler yes, running pyduofern directly will let you talk to the shutters more directly, and allows you to produce more debug log. (It is also possible to enable debug level logging in homeassistant for specific modules, but I guess testing with a second pi is favourable if one has that option).

One possible software-unrelated cause for the behaviour that you observe was reported by another user in the past: his stick was positioned just at the edge of RF range. This lead to the effect that the stick was able to reliably receive status messages from the shutters but commands were not transferring reliably to the shutters. So with your second pi I would suggest running the experiment not too far from the shutter to exclude RF range as the cause of the issue.

What's the status on this? Given that there was no activity for a few months I will close this next time I come by in a few weeks/months unless anyone has opposed this by then.

@tringler any update? I use a lot of those 1200 devices and they work pretty well (in regards to the commands focused in this issue).

Sorry for the huge delay! I tried it successfully with the pyduofern on another Raspberry successfully. After that I tried it again on the HACS integration and the problem went away.
