Use of Bond Bridge Pro with 2.4 GHz remotes

[user4889]

Has anyone cracked this? I have 4 x 800mhz fans remotes, 2 x 2400 mhz fans remotes & 2 x manual switch fans.

Hubitat (via Bond Bridge Pro) sees the 800mhz fans (and their built in lights) but BB Pro won’t see the 2400mhz fan remotes as that is outside the BB frequency range and so can’t be added.

Anyone have a workaround? Would a universal remote help or would that just mimic the same frequency?

For the manual switches I will buy some zooz type products.

2 x 2400 mhz fans remotes

Are these BT?

[user4889]

No. RF controlled

Then you might be out of luck. I'm unaware of any off-the-solution.

[sburke781]

They're should be some kind of "solution" given it is a supported platform.. Obviously plenty of caveats to that statement.... Personally I am still using dman's old Community solution with an old Bond bridge....

What’s a supported platform? Bond doesn’t support 2.4 GHz RF devices.

The issue isn't with HE's Bond implementation, it's the fact that Bond itself doesn't cover that freq at all.

You’re way too young for that!!

I like to push boundaries...

... particulary when I am going to mis-interpret a requirement....

Yeah, I've got a remote on that frequency also, have been advised the device will not be replaced and would love to figure out a way to get HE control of the device. My Bond Bridge won't. So far I've found:

Adding Hubitat control to an RF device (Cellular Shades)

I have a couple of curtains that use RF remotes and do this through a Broadlink RM4 as it can control IR and a lot of RF devices. Do be aware that just because they use RF that a device like a broadlink may not support the protocol that runs over it. I've run into that before, so there's a possibility it might not work. There are a couple of Broadlink to Hubitat options available on these forums. A fun project was a window opener I have uses encoded IR, which is a pain as the Broadlink cannot h…

I am working on getting some updates pushed out, someone kindly patched the code for RF.

Rf control of smart devices using raspberry pi

I thought this was pretty slick, with a pi and antenna you can control Rf devices like fans with just a pi! [Abusing Raspberry Pi GPIO pins as a radio transmitter to control my ceiling fan]

Hi, Have anyone seen and tried the product to be able to control RF lights? I have one, but where to start… RogerThat

How to smartenize this garage light. 38000 lumens.. maybe if the specs aren't false

Two questions: Do we know if AliEx is still the only place to source these? And... One thing I like about this module is that it is rated for temps up to 55c which many others don't go higher than 50c. While this seems an excessive requirement, that temp is pretty easy to approach "enclosed in a electrical box in an attic" where some lighting connections are made. IF that rating can be trusted that's a plus. So the question is (w/ no UL approval and only a CE mark, earned or not) has the re…

I have not yet done any of these...
