No issue, question: Support of Klik aan Klik uit. #1

Hi,

What a wonderful integration for HA!!! Im using a RFlink to control 2 old klik aan klik uit modules. (Dim) When I install this integration will it support KaKu also? Because then I only need to add the receive/transmitter module on the right gpis pins and I can remove the old RFlink board.

Cheers, Peter

Hi Peter. If you have a RF transmitter module connected to your raspberry pi and this integration installed you 'should' be able to communicate with any in range device which communicates over RF with one of the following chipsets.

SC5262 / SC5272, HX2262 / HX2272, PT2262 / PT2272, EV1527, RT1527, FP1527 or HS1527 HT6P20X (Also supports Intertechno outlets)

Maybe try searching for the schematic of the switch (or open one up) to check does yours use one of those chipsets. Does your switch have dip switches, code wheels or a learning mode?

The communications is done by the rc-switch library. So you'll find more information there on how to communicate with your device https://github.com/sui77/rc-switch

You might need to do a little digging to find out the transmission codes needed for the specific switch you use.

This is a helpful tutorial for sniffing out codes. https://randomnerdtutorials.com/decode-and-send-433-mhz-rf-signals-with-arduino/

Hope that helps.
