Where is the information of RFXCOM Rs232 interface and the protocol?

[CYMD]

when talking about RS232 stop bit, sometimes we can see 1,1.5,2 stop bits, that means the level of stop bit maintain timing is 1, 1.5 and 2 tims , actually all RS232 stop bit is 1

There does not seem to be aby info on Rs232 interfaces or stop bits on that link

All technical info has been removed from the RFXCOM site.

The problem is that these devices may expect 1.5 or 2 stop bits from the transmitting device but if the transitter is only capable of sending 1 stop bit before the next character, then it may not be received correctly and cause a frame error

If the receiver expects 1 stop bit then 1.5 or 2 stop bits is OK.

I believe RFXCOM are now in discussion with Cytech. IMHO, this \"reverse\" X10 RF protocol is one of the best - and my whole house is CBUS.

Yes we are talking with RFXCom directly now

Hi

As you have the RFXCOM interface now, have you had any success in purely sending the commands from the UCM to the HomeEasy devices ?

Thanks

We can send the commands to RFXcom and receive the commands, but still studying how the interface should be handled
