Can you tell me which remote Controlled RF Socket the RF Transmitter in Livebox is compatible with?

Thanks

RF Socket

The RF socket that we've coded for by default is from Lidl. Sold as a 4 pack with a handheld remote. Of the four pack, one is a 'dimmer' unit which isn't really great for use with the HAH. I'll get a picture of the Lidl unit added to the HAH wiki. The Lidl units are 'trainable' in that you put then into a mode where they 'learn' to respond to a given code.

The data that drives the RF transmissions is 'soft' in that new units can be handled without hardware mods or reflashing the HAH. However, more documentation is needed as to exactly how to go about adding a new type of RF socket (you will need a 'scope and be handy with bitmaps and hex).

For now, it's Lidl. If they don't have them in stock, we have plenty. These can be ordered from the HAH shop.

Bye Bye StandBy now supported

Support for the popular BBSB units is now available. For now, it's either BBSB or Lidl units, not a mix of both types. We will work on supporting more RF unit vendors.
