Hello,
I have a Kaku doorbell ACDB-7000ac where the a is the knob it self. It is a wireless 433 MHz doorbell.
Strange thing is when I press the button it rings the bell but it isn’t picked up bij the RFlink. All my other 433mhz from Kaku is. In the supported list the doorbell is listed but not the button.
I do see the RX light lighting up on the Arduino when I press the button but nothing shows up in the entities list.
Has anyone got the button ACDB-7000a working with RFLink.
I figured it out. Though RFLink isn’t adding the button to new entities if you have auto detect on it dies receive signals when you press the button. This I found out because the RX LED was lighting up when I pressed the button.
What i did was as follows:
With my old system (Homewizard) I could find the code that the button was sending. In my case, 015E4CA600
The codes the RFLink comes up with are like newkaku_<8 characters>_
What I found out was that the first 8 characters of the code in my old system (Homewizard) was the same in the RFLink code only the RFLink code is lowercase. The last two digits of the code is in the RFLink code a _ and the last number of the old code.
So in short:
The Homewizard code is
015E4CA600
the RFLink code is
newkaku_015e4ca6_0
And using this code in a binary_sensor and setting it to off after one second when it is pressed works like a charm.
I hope this helps other members as well.
