Revolt NC-5462 reads only 0

LS,

This weekend I've got my Revolt NC-5462. And I've pretty much followed Micheal's guide to install everything. (http://www.sknorrell.de/blog/energiemesssung-mit-revolt-nc-5462/)

1-Flash the CUL to version 1.57
a-Press and hold the tiny program button while connecting your CUL to USB
b-Install the driver (windows)
c-Use Flip from Atmel to flash the new firmware (http://www.atmel.com/tools/FLIP.aspx , http://forum.fhem.de/index.php/topic,12600.msg90631.html#msg90631)

2-Attached the second CUL USB device as CUL_1 (next to my CUL_0 serial one), and added this to my fhem.cfg;

Code Auswählen Erweitern

define CUL_1 CUL /dev/ttyACM0@38400 0000
attr CUL_1 icon cul_cul
(Used FHT 0000 to ignore FHT via this device)

3-I've changed the datarate with the RAW commands with;

Code Auswählen Erweitern

set CUL_1 raw W1257
set CUL_1 raw W13C4
set CUL_1 raw X21

4-Set the frequency to 443,97, and changed data settings with;

Code Auswählen Erweitern

set CUL_1 freq 443.97
set CUL_1 bWidth 406
set CUL_1 sens 8

5-Plugged in my revolt, it does get auto created with an ID of Revolt_0000, I've expected it to be created with an ID like a random number like Revolt_3541.

Auto create picked up my revolt, but as it seems, there are no data transfers. It only read 0 value's. Strangly the Revolt ID is also 0. So it seems like the data transfers are not working properly;


For troubleshooting I've tried;
-Put the revolt next to the recieving CUL_1 (less then 2 meters away)
-Read the config from my CUL_1 device;

Code Auswählen Erweitern

CUL_1 ccconf => freq:443.970MHz bWidth:406KHz rAmpl:42dB sens:8dB

-Read the Log file, nothing that indicates problems for the revolt
-Reset everything (Fhem, my Raspi, the Revolt)
-Tried several button combinations for the Revolt. Pressing the button short. Pressing the button 4 seconds. Pressing the button 5 seconds.
-Deleted the revolt device from FHEM and have auto discover detect it again.
-Made sure that the revolt would use CUL_1 for IO; attr revolt_0000 IODev CUL_1
-Tried 9600 rate for my CUL_1
-Checked the firmware version for my CUL_1; VERSION V 1.57 CUL868
-read the forums and google; http://forum.fhem.de/index.php?topic=14962.0
-check the version of my 19_Revolt.pm

My questions are;
-What can you do with the button on the Revolt (the manual is in german, and I can't really understand what the button does exactly)
-How can I monitor my CUL_1 device to see what RAW messages are recieved.
-I've saw a version 4 of the firmware, could that solve it?

I've found the problem;

In the guide from Micha is an error; http://www.sknorrell.de/blog/energiemesssung-mit-revolt-nc-5462/

Code Auswählen Erweitern

Wenn man, wie ich, nur einen CLU868 hat muss man diesen nun auf 433,97 MHz mit dem Befehl <set CUL1 freq 443.97> ändern.

Must be;

Code Auswählen Erweitern

Wenn man, wie ich, nur einen CLU868 hat muss man diesen nun auf 433,97 MHz mit dem Befehl <set CUL1 freq 433.97> ändern.
