Hi

Not so sure if it is the right place to ask this. I would like to know if we 
can run 2 different programs reading information from RFXTRX.
Basically I am running Domoticz and I wanted to try RFXCMD in parallel. I got 
some strange reading from either side and so I wanted to know if two programs 
can read information from RFXTRX in the same time

thanks

Hi,

Since both Domoticz and RFXcmd will use the serial port (USB), I can believe 
that it will not run stable. The RFXcmd has never been tested with another 
application accessing the same serial port (USB). I don't know how Domoticz 
handles the serial port, it would be enough if any of these two tries to lock 
the port, then there would not be access for the other party.

RFXcmd uses pySerial for all communication.

Regards,
Sebastian
