RESOLVED: On Off buttons not visible?

Hi,

I'm not sure what I´m doing wrong.
But I can't get the On Off buttons visible?
It was there a short time and it worked fine but now they are gone and I can't toggle the AC switch.
Im on Indigo 6.0.18 and 1.6.1 on the plugin.

Re: On Off buttons not visible?

Any ideas on why?
Temperature devices works fine but not the AC devices?

Re: On Off buttons not visible?

Have you tried defining the device as a an AC appliance rather than switch?

Re: On Off buttons not visible?

is 0056adaa / housecode the correct ID for this device? If not you'd either need to use the existing one or put it into pairing mode then press the on button

Computer says no.

Re: On Off buttons not visible?

What Nexa device are you trying to control?, and out of interest what protocols do you have enabled in the rfxcom plugin?

Re: On Off buttons not visible?

I have a nexa per-1500 which is a similar plug which I believe is compatible with your plugs. I managed to get the nexa plug to work with Indigo, so the first step was getting the unit code..for example..
Code: Select all
unknown device detected (id = 0053be60-01, type = 17). Select a AC Switch from the list of devices


ensure that the AC option is enabled in the RFXcom plugin.

then created device in Indigo with a unit code of 0053be60 and house code 1

check that the on off switches control the plug. Be aware that once the rfxcom plugin is out of debug mode you won't see any messages in the log. If you are still getting an unknown device detected message then you will need to try pairing the indigo device with the nexa unit. to do this unplug the nexa unit, wait a few seconds, plug it back in and while the light on the unit is flashing press the Indigo device "on" control. I've got no idea why there appears to be an x10 signal being sent, but I see the same in my debug log.. Your log appears to be sending the correct code so it could be that indigo is not pairing with the device.

There is a chance that other protocols are interfering with the AC protocol. There is a table in the RFXcom manual which gives you an idea where conflicts can occur. So if you don't need a protocol on then switch it off.

Re: On Off buttons not visible?

This is strange.
Now I only have 3 protocols enabled and I'm getting the temperature from one device but not from the AC one.
It used to get the signal before the on off buttons where gone.
It did tell me that device was on or off if used the remote control.

I tried to delete the plugin the hard way but now I can't install the plugin again.
I even tried to reinstall indigo but it's still tells me that the plugin is installed.
How is the proper way to delete a plugin or how do I reinstall the plugin again?

Thanks for your patience and support! :)

Re: On Off buttons not visible?

Strange things, If I use AC appliance then ON/OFF is there but I get unknown device.
I add a AC Switch no ON/OFF but no unknown device and it's recognise the commands trough my Nexa remote controler for turning the plug on or off.

??

Maybe I should try with a older plugin? Are they available?
