Geeetech 433mhz receiver never not working #214

I have been testing this library on an arduino uno using a Geeetech 433mhz receiver without luck. Any help is appreciated.

So far I have tested various pins on the duino to see if the receiver is working. From what I can tell it is(used just the digitalRead) but am having no luck getting into the block under:

mySwitch.available()

Currently the pins on the receiver look like: +5V - 5v on arduino GND - ground on arduino DATA - digital pin 2 on arduino (tried pins 1-11) Is there anything special with other types of receivers that I am missing? I have tried power on the antenna side as well.

I also have the same problem, so far. Just for testing the right interrupt pin on the Demos i used the following skatsh: https://techtutorialsx.com/2016/12/11/esp8266-external-interrupts/ This proves that i used the right pin, so input is working with the receiver module quite well. Way the rc_switsh routines aren't working i don't know up to now.

Start with testing the signal you receive with this: https://github.com/sui77/SimpleRcScanner Post the timings here (not the image) if you still have problems.

I want to let other know that if the protocol is not recognized nothing will be displayed! Make sure with other tolls that you use the right pins. I used instead the very rudimentary method with audacity (https://hackaday.com/2012/07/02/decoding-rf-link-using-a-pc-soundcard/) to record the bit buttern. then i have forked an other project to be able to use old eumig outlets, if some one also wants to adapt some other protocols have a look how this can be done. Not all Protokolls used are standard. Reverse Engineering my be needed. rc-switsh library also may not be usable for recording, because the protocols implement may not fit as in my case with this older eumig outlets. https://github.com/jpascher/EspRfRemote

Thanks for your responses :) I haven't had a chance to check out the SimpleRcScanner yet, but will post back once I do.
