I try to configure stick to control couple receivers but I can't find anywhere how to configure etc/tellstick.conf
I use waveman Clas Olhsons 32-6457

I configured like below but it just works with last one.

Code: Select all

deviceNode = "/dev/tellstick"
device {
  id = 1
  name = "socket1"
  protocol = "waveman"
#  model = "codeswitch"
  parameters {
    house = "G"
    unit = "9"
  }
}

device {
  id = 2
  name = "socket2"
  protocol = "waveman"
#  model = "codeswitch"
  parameters {
    house = "G"
    unit = "10"
  }
 }


I tried also with rfcmd command and only that "G 10" works.

Code: Select all

 rfcmd /dev/tellstick WAVEMAN G 9 1
 rfcmd /dev/tellstick WAVEMAN G 10 1

Your config seems correct. Try changing your house/unitcode to a completely different one and see if it helps.

it works, put it another room and changed channel from 10 to 1.
socket1 is now g1 and socket 2 g9

Other users have reported that having two receivers to close to each other makes them conflict.
