New Sensors not populating data

I had an older RFXSensor and got 2 new ones the other day to go with a new RFXtrx433. I've installed the transceiver and that part is working fine. I added my older RFXSensor, all good at this point. Temp and Humidity updating fine. I then added in the 2 additional sensors, one of which is showing 5C temp and 95% humidity, which its no where near as i'm in the bedroom, temp is approx 20C. The other sensor is blank and hasn't updated any values. I added the sensors by there id in the log and am just wondering if there is anything additional that needs to be done for having multiple sensors.
FW version is 46 on the RFXtrx433.

Re: New Sensors not populating data

Can you send me some data from your event log, so I can see what happens....
Something like this:

RFXCOM Debug processing: 10 113 0 202 0 240 0 114 173 122 96 (0A 71 00 CA 00 F0 00 72 AD 7A 60)

Hi, please see sense data. Sensor id 0 is the old sensor that I have

Re: New Sensors not populating data

Except that I don't expect a sensor 0 this looks good
I'm more curious to see data from one of the sensors that don't work.

Re: New Sensors not populating data

That's the problem, they don't seem to be sending much data, they did an initial packet send and the plugin picked them up and gave me the new id's but since then, one has sent no data and one seems to have sent another packet with incorrect temp and humidity value

Re: New Sensors not populating data

Any suggestions on where to go from here ? Is there anything else i can do to get the RFX Sensors to send data ? or any debugging i can enable in the RFXTRX ?
