Unreliable ESP CUL for my MAX! devices #9

Hi,

First all, so sorry that I continuing bother you.

I built all hardware (wemos d1, cc1101 module, 868 antena, proper psu), flased esp with the provided .bin yet compiled file inside the project, and setup the ESP-CUL with propper Wis, Wik, Win, Wig parameters and device is up and running. So far so good.

But, but ....

I need use it for MAX! devices (elv eq3 radiator basic valves BC-RT-TRX-CyN) and once setup the ESP CUL device I can send commands to them receiving the propper aknowlegdment from the target valve, but once that first send was do it (with success), the ESP CUL device goes in a state that are unable to send again any other command to the same or other device that had first success commad.

If I change the CUL gateway to other, the target device is repliying without issues (I have a CC1101 module direct GPIO atacched to a raspberry, and a MAX CUBE flashed with a-culfw firnware) , but ESP CUL still not working although I reboot it with B00 command (trough telnet connection ESP CUL ip:2323 ), and only with a hard reset (power off) the ESP CUL start again to send and reciive commands to my MAX! devices.

So to me seems ESP-CUL have some issue with my MAX! (if I'm not wrong are being using Moritz mode protocol) devices.
Triying compiling (using Arduino IDE) from myself with this downloaded repository, conclude on a ESP CUL device that is not working propperly, because at first look I see ESP CUL is not replying not even trough direct serial CUL commands, so not seems reliable enough to do further tests.

Any help, will be really apprecied, because that wifi CUL device will be great to be as gateway to reinforce signal to some of my actually near unreachable MAX! devices because cannot place a more near gateway .

I dont know, if maybe the radio 868 max time slot rate limit is reached and thus can be realted with that issue, but I can comfirm tha if I left the ESP CUL acting as gateway for all the day attached to some of my MAX! devices they are not working propperly acepting the commands (I send only 3 or 4 orders a day to the devices) that in otherwise if I chage to other gateway are working fine.

Still doing more tests, so I reply back any other observation that I reach with the test.

Aa offside information, the system brain I'm using is the wonderfoul HomeGear, and HomeMatic Manager to do test and perform some adjustments that I find are more easy doing with it.

Best regards
Jose
