ramses_cc is great work, thanks a lot!
I’m trying to get it to work with my Orcon MVS-15 ventilation unit and I’m not sure what I’m missing, maybe my configuration is incomplete or I made some mistakes 
My setup:
- Orcon MVS-15 with 15RF remote (the MVS-15 unit also has a built-in humidity sensor)
- nanoCul USB dongle with evofw3 firmware. I started and completed the tuning procedure in evofw3 because I thought I wasn’t getting responses.
- I’m using a bigger magnetic base antenna with the nanoCul
I started with the minimal setup for ramses_cc and I did get some logging, like:

29:163367 is definitely the 15RF remote. I assume that 32:236773 is the Orcon MVS-15.
I’m not sure what 37:250081 is (more about this later)
I wasn’t sure what auto-discovery would do for me and nothing was happening except for some ramses_rf logging in the HA logging so I ended up with this configuration (also using learn command):

Based on the packet log I would say that 32:236773 is the Orcon MVS-15 but when I configure it with class FAN it doesn’t work (not available). When I configure 37:250081 as FAN it becomes available but it’s not updated when I change the fan speed using a remote etc. I’m confused…
I didn’t bind any of the devices to the fan unit except for the 15RF remote, the fake remote works using the send command service when I use the id of the real 15RF remote (29:163367) in the command instead of the fake remote’s id.
Some probably relevant HA logging:

I think HVC:022641 is a ‘neighbour’ device.
Please let me know if you need any more information. Thanks!
