RFXTRX: can it ignore certain devices?

Configuration
1

When I set my RFXTRX to “enable automatic add”, it takes about 1 week to have 200 non-existing devices in my setup.

RM174RF Smoke Detector

Guess one of my neighbors has a device that keeps sending signals :wink:

Any idea if it’s possible to ignore a specific device from being added? (without disabling automatic add)

Perhaps, no. The way I used it: first allow automatic adding temporarily, wait till all needed sensors are registered, disable adding. Then remove all unneeded devices.

Thanks @sp00025
That is probably the best (& only?) workaround that I’m using right now.
As there are many RFX devices coming and going I was hoping for an “ignore these devices” config :slight_smile:

Personally, I rename them ‘DELXX’ where XX is an incremental number.
Otherwise the next time, they are recreated and I need to remove them again.
