rtl_433 VS multimon-ng

And there's a multiformat receiver block too: https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433

pi@pi4b8:/etc/systemd/system $ cat rtl_433.service # based on https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433/issues/1651 [Unit] Description=RTL_433 service script StartLimitIntervalSec=5 Documentation=https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433/README.md After=syslog.target network.target [Service] Type=exec ExecStart=/usr/bin/rtl_433 -C si -F mqtt # Restart script if stopped Restart=always # Wait 30s before restart RestartSec=30s # Tag things in the log # View with: sudo journalctl -f -u rtl_433 -o cat SyslogIdentifier=rtl_433 StandardOutput=syslog StandardError=syslog [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target

For example, rtl_433 has the spec for an X10 sensor say I know what data I want to put where, is there some tool/site I could enter in what the "specifications" of the signal waveform are and the data I want to send as a byte-string or binary-string and it would create a playable .sub file for me?

For "outdoor distances" I'd probably stick to something LoRa or 433MHz based. YoLink has quite a few options using the LoRa protocol. I use basic 433Mhz based AcuRite sensors paired with an RTL-SDR dongle connected to a machine running RTL_433, and use Home Assistant to trigger automations and alerts.

866-868MHz is SRD/ISM band (in UK/EU). Can be things like energy meters, TPMS, medical devices etc. Try rtl_433 on it.

I'm trying to add a Honeywell doorbell to Home Assistant by using the RTL-433 GitHub project/program. When I run the program the SDR dongle is detected but it doesn't display anything when I press the doorbell (the image shows what I see after running the program and pressing the doorbell). I have also tried Honeywell Activelink (FSK) aka [116], so I have tried both 115 and 116 decode protocols.

I have little experience with decoding radio signals so I don't know if any software decoders are expected to handle the clipping. I tried using multimon-ng and found that its UFSK1200 demodulator can get something out of the audio, but it also keeps repeating Error: stop bit is 0. Bad framing if verbose mode is enabled.

Sorry I gave wrong name, it is multimon https://github.com/EliasOenal/multimon-ng and is capable to decode:

It's likely that the signal is extremely strong. You can probably just pick it up with a short antenna indoors. I used MultiMonNG to decode. It's was pretty boring to be honest.

Give multimon-ng a whirl. This is CLI based, but can output what it decodes to a simple text file or hex data to do what you need with.

multimon-ng

POCSAG, FLEX (pagers), Morse, APRS and more with multimon-ng

multimon-ng for decoding various protocols.

Try this tool; https://github.com/EliasOenal/multimon-ng - It's CLI and you'll ideally want a Linux, but this can decode an awful lot more data modes like such.
