"light one" switches?

i have the ordinary tellstick, thats a year old or so, one of the first with an antenna.

It works great with the Rising Sun type of switch (from Kjell&co) but i also have 3 switches named "Light One"

when you open them there is a row of 10 on/off switches, the remote only has 5. so the first 5 tells what remote to listen to, the last five which button on the remote

A search on this forum tells me usually means it should be programmed as a sartano switch:

Code: Select all

device {
  id = 4
  name = "test1"
  protocol = "SARTANO"
  model = ""
  parameters {
  code = "1111110000"
  }
}
only it doesn't work.

I've tried changing all the small switches on the device to on, and changed the config to either all ones or zeroes, in case i had mistaken on for off on the switch, but it still doesn't work.

any ideas?

i see that with the latest update the rfcmd command is gone, so my initial idea of bruteforcing all combinations isn't an option :-(

Do you have a picture of your devices?

The protocol "fuhaote" uses the same types of dip-switches as sartano. Try those.

tried this with the one you see opened:

Code: Select all

device {
  id = 4
  name = "test1"
  protocol = "fuhaote"
  model = ""
  parameters {
  code = "1111110000"
  }
}
But no luck

They sure looks like the fuhaote ones!

Have you restarted telldusd after changing the config?

hehe yes, I've noticed that it doesn't recognize changes else.

It is correct to set model as empty?

Set model to "codeswitch" to be sure.

thanks a lot! that made the difference!

Does info like this go onto a wiki somewhere, or are people left to search the forum?
