RF-HUB reads 20+ different 433 MHz sensor protocols and picks up the sensors automatically as soon as they send their first signal. You don't need to specify brand or model — RF-HUB identifies the protocol from the signal itself.
Supported sensor types
Thermometers and hygrometers:
- Oregon Scientific — protocols v1 (THR128, THR238), v2 (THGR122/228/268, BTHR918), v3 (THGR810, RGR968)
- UPM — WT450, RTGR318, RGR126, RFA1 and others
- Telldus Temp — FineOffset-based temperature sensors sold by Telldus
- TFA Dostmann — weather stations (Oregon-compatible)
- MarQuant — generic FineOffset1 sensors
- Mandolyn — no-name models (FineOffset)
- Everflourish — certain models
Weather stations:
- Bresser 5-in-1 and 7-in-1 — temperature, humidity, wind, rain, air pressure
- Rubicson — Bresser-compatible
- Froggit, Ventus — Bresser/FineOffset derivatives
Rain gauges:
- MtxRain / Jula / Schou / Motonet / ADE — same protocol, sold under different brands
Motion and door sensors:
- MarQuant PIR — sold by Clas Ohlsson, Biltema
- Nexa — motion sensors, magnetic contacts
- Everflourish — certain models
Where do I see the sensors?
- RF-HUB web interface → Devices: each sensor is shown as a card with the current values (e.g. 21.1°C, 4.6 mm for a rain gauge)
- Home Assistant via MQTT auto-discovery — the sensors appear as entities without any configuration
- Homey (Pro, Bridge or Cloud) via our Homey app and the qtrl.me cloud
- Signal tab in the RF-HUB web interface — for debug, shows raw pulse patterns
What RF-HUB shows per sensor
- Values — temperature, humidity, wind, rain, battery status etc.
- RSSI — signal strength (see the range guide)
- Low-battery flag — some sensors report a low battery level
- Last received signal — time since the sensor last transmitted
Sensor not showing up — troubleshooting
- Wait a few minutes — sensors typically transmit every 30 to 60 seconds, some only every 5 minutes.
- Insert fresh batteries — weak batteries give a weak transmission, both RSSI and correct decoding suffer.
- Move the sensor closer to RF-HUB temporarily — if it appears then, you know the problem is range.
- Trigger the sensor manually — for PIR: wave in front of it; for thermometer: move in or out for a temperature change.
- Check the Signal tab — if you see incoming pulse patterns but no sensor — the protocol may not be supported. Contact us and we'll be happy to add support.
My sensor isn't in the list
Two possibilities:
- It uses one of the supported protocols anyway — many cheap sensors are "white labels" of the same protocol. Just try it — if the sensor appears as e.g. "MarQuant", it works.
- It's a new protocol — contact us and we'll be happy to add support. Please send the model name and a picture of the back.
RF-HUB's CustomMatch function is made for remotes (one button = one signal), not for sensors that send varying data. For sensors, real protocol support is needed.
