Status LED dual use? Is this possible?

I tested camera on my microscope. The problem with the camera is as you fear: low (or not existent) DOF. However this is NOT the case when using your eyes! This is stereo microscope, so when loking through oculars with your (two) eyes you see whole picture as without it, only bigger. Only camera distorts this stereo image into flat one. So if you decide you use it without camera, only use eyes.

Regarding amount of items seen: microscope is zoom-able, so you set what and how big you wanna see.

Try template switch with cc1101.set_idle for off and cc1101.begin_rx for on action.

Still?? Which one?

The dining room fan will not turn off come hell or high water! I would hate to think how many times I have captured it, cleaned it up, tried the entire capture, tried repeats of what I think is the proper section... It just will not turn off, turns on fine.

I have tried working the remote from different ranges as well.

Was it one of the signals on your previous topics? What did you receive with idle 30ms?

It was on another thread and it is in my config in this thread. BTW, I finally figured out, about the time you replied, how to shutdown and enable the receiver. Still need to build a toggle for 350 and 433 mHz so I can change them on the fly... Still have only used 53% of the memory on this little beast!

I have been using that timing setting and it looks good and clean, just will not work.

This is how I set up the toggle for RX:

switch:
  - platform: template
    name: "CC1101 Receiver Enable"
    id: cc1101_receiver_switch
    optimistic: true
    turn_on_action:
      - cc1101.begin_rx: transceiver
    turn_off_action:
      - cc1101.set_idle: transceiver

Post the raw you get from off remote signal. I'm not willing to let your chinese fan win after all...
Even better if you post it on the previous topic or open new one since it has nothing to do with status led dual use.

Exactly same way you made the on/off template switch. Or use template number or select, logic is same.

I will do a couple of new captures tonight and post a new thread.

That was how I figured you would change the frequency, just have not attacked that yet. :slight_smile:
