Registering RFLink as a new remote to KaKu devices
Posted: 12 Aug 2019, 14:02
Hi,
I have shutters for two bedroom windows that I want to control using the RFLink. The shutters are controlled by two KaKu ASUN-650's. I've been able to control the shutters by letting the RFLink emulate the switches, sending the commands using the ID of the switches already registered to the ASUN's (i.e. 10;NewKaku;0cac142;a;ON;).
I was wondering if it is possible to register new "switches" to the ASUN's by sending an ON command using a new ID (i.e. 10;NewKaku;0000001;a;ON;) while the link mode of the ASUN has been activated.
Why would I want to do this you ask? Well, I'm glad you asked
I want to unlink the switches from the ASUN's and then use the RFLink to capture the switch signals. Then, after checking if the windows are closed and the windows are closed send the command to the ASUN to operate the shutters. This to prevent the shutters from being lowered while the windows are opened (too far) and running into the windows.
I don't have the sensors to detect if the windows are open yet, so for now I just want to intercept the signal of the switches and then send the command to the ASUN's. If that works I will order some sensors and add them to the loop.
Cheers,
Wouter
