rflink setup? #1

Open exetico opened 4 years ago

Hi,

I've flashed both chips, and ESPruna is also running, but i can't really get how to get rflink to talk with ESPruna - and i can't really find anything good about that part.

I've followed the readme, but i can't find anything about that part.

I'm going to integrate it to Home Assistant too, but i'm still unsure about how to setup RFLink :-)?

Hi, to make rflink and espurna talk to each other, you have to connect the ATmega2560 and ESP8266 serial ports together by changing the mini switch to RXD0 <-> TXD0.

Hi :-)

It's already in RXD0 <-> TXD0 - i forgot mention that part. After i submitted he issue, i also connected the RFLink to my Windows machine, and i could see that it did respons with the RF link Windows Software.

But i'm still unsure about, how to add a 433MHz device, or so. Cause, there was absolutly No reactions by triggering my 433MHz device, to send a signal.

And also, no data from my ESPruna ☺️.

Check if your 433 device is managed by rflink. Not all devices are recognized by rflink.

Hi. I ordered another one, and i can see the proper output from RFLink by connecting it directly to my machine and fixing RXD3.

By putting it back to RXD0, nothing is recieved in Home Assistant.

I'm not quite sure what's going on. If it's a network issue, or something like that.

While i have you; Have you tried anything with 868? It looks like the modules is very expensive..
