RF433MHz Support

[Krystiann 0]

Hi,

 

Does Fibaro support RF433MHz? I need this information because I plan to integrate via RF but I don't knownFibaro supports that

The short answer is no.

 

The longest is: available only for Nice/Elero

Better question would be "Which RF 433MHz communication protocol Fibaro support?"

 

It supports only NICE and Elero 433 MHz communication protocol.

It's interesting, I wish that HC 3 doesn't support all RF devices. Maybe HC 4 will support

@Krystiann What are your plans anyway?

 

I am looking for a solution to integrate my house ventilation thats also controlled by RF.

The solution is not easy, but there are some. And cheap.

@Krystiann, There is numerous protocols, which ones you would need? RF 433 MHz is just radio carrier that carries command that coresponds to some communication protocol. For example Somfy RTS is communication protocol that runs on RF 433 MHz radio carrier. If Somfy decides to use different frequency, they do not change protocol, just carrier.

House ventilation RF you can bypass with Fibaro duo relay

For example if you have 3 speeds

1-continue

2-low speed >>S1

3- High speed >>S2

Uhm, is that for a pirilex plug ?

If you have a Perilex plug, that makes it a lot more easy

Mine is a normal plug.

[Sjakie 144]

yes for Perplex but also for 230V single plug.

If I proper remember the single plug is in the device devided trough the RF

Open cover and see how it's connected probably print 3 wires out

Itho?

No, it is a buva boxstream rf+.  For what i know, there is not a good solution. Except for what i am looking at

Arduino + nRF905, and that guy made a nice API for controlling it

 

Anyway where going off topic here (or at least i think so)

I can't see properly but gray goes to wall connector and black to motor?

I see gree separate from black, blue and brown. Green ground?? black, blue and brown speed 1,2,3

To be sure disconnect one of those three and see what speed it is.

If you know all three you can use duo relay to control middle and high speed

low speed can be on always.

On this way you can use RF and Fibaro to control fan

I'm not an electrician, nothing at all like that  So before i blow up my house.

 

- black wire goes to the motor

- disconnect one of them, and see the speed.

- reconnect, and try with another and see if it is a different speed.

 

If that works, put a relay switch in between, and thats it ?

 

Sound simple.....but you should know, i am very good at making explosions

I did something similar on a Itho fan.

Be aware on (Itho) if speed 2 there is Voltage on 1 and 2

At speed 3 on all 3 there is Voltage is not a problem speed difference is done by resistance

I am also in doubt that the RF function still stays working. Since you break the circuit current with the relay, 

so selecting a new speed through RF would malfunction.  Well, i'll think it over.

[Sjakie 144]

should be or/or and not a break

others with light duo relay will be parallel! too or HC* or switch

If you organise the fan correctly, you don’t need the “manual” RF function ?

[ppeterr 205]

I'll take it into consideration

 

But I still tend to do it with an Arduino board.

About half cheaper, and just an API that can be accessed via the HC3.

 

And that rounds out the story. 433MHZ is missing on the hc3

Why dont you just use Broadlink and a QA for Broadlink. ( i think 10der posted some nice QA for this somewhere)

[ppeterr 205]

@Sjakie I've  been reading a lot about this sort of solutions the last days. And i come to the conclusion that your

solution is probably much easier then to do it with RF. So, there is a topic on tweakers about this, and other solutions.

 

Now i see this.

 

They use a zigbee led dimmer 

Please login or register to see this link.

And connect it to another point then the power source.

 

While i am not sure, this kinda led dimmer would work on the HC3, but maybe there are zwave solutions?

 

Maybe this one ?

What are your thoughts about this ?  And maybe do you know what kind off connection they make there ?
