LEDs C4 will not pair #1

Hi Erik,

I was wondering if you could help me with the following:
With the nice weather the last couple of weeks I went out and got me a LED-C4 fan.
It is this fan:

https://www.lampen24.nl/witte-plafondventilator-borneo-met-licht.html

Unfortunately, I am not able to pair it with Homey using your LED-C4 app. The remote is different then depicted in the app but is does have the 4 dip switches.

It came with this remote:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Leds-C4-71-14-accessorio-Remote-Control/dp/B00DEBFFPM/ref=sr_1_4/259-0443520-4388637?

Pairing with the dipswitch setting doesn't work neither does letting Homey detect the remote. Of course I have tried several dipswitch settings.
You have any idea how I can get this to work? Is there a way to troubleshoot?

Thanks in advance,

Glenn

Looks like they use different kinds of remotes. Could be that it's using a completely different encoding, or it could simply be that the fixed part of the address is just different. Internally there are 8 bits for the address, only 4 of them can be changed using the dip switches.

The fan I built this app for was this one: https://www.lampen24.nl/formentera-plafondventilator-met-afstandsbediening.html

Unfortunately I don't have the fan nor a Homey anymore right now. I moved to another place, Homey and the fan didn't.

You could try running the app using the developer tools, see what the debug output says as that might give a clue what needs to be changed.

I meant the instructions here: https://developer.athom.com/docs/apps/tutorial-Getting%20Started.html (skipping step 4 since you want to use an existing project, not create a new one)

You'd need to download this app from github and run it using the developer tools so you can see the debugging output directly from Homey.

To get all debug output you'd also need to uncomment line 92 of config.js in the 433_generator directory, maybe even change logLevel to 1 to get all possible output

In the debugging output it will show the commands received when you press a button on the remote if it uses the same signals but different addressing.

I have the same fan, would love if someone could look into this.
