RFXLan unable to receive KAKU

I use the RFXLan for controlling my KAKU devices.
Sending commands from the RFXLan to the KAKU receivers works fine.
But i can't receive commands from my KAKU transmitters with the RFXLAN.

I use the RFreceiver and enabled all RF.
I used both modes: RFXCOM and 32 bit but I didn't receive anything.

What should I do?

I use a couple of different devices:
  • TMT-502 Afstandsbediening met timerfunctie
  • AWST-8802 Draadloze dubbele wandschakelaar
  • AWST-6000 Bewegingsmelder
  • AMST-606 Draadloos magneetcontact
I don't receive anything.

The new KAKU should be received with the AC protocol enabled.
The old KAKU is using the ARC protocol.

The Homeseer plug-in should be able to process all KAKU remotes and switches. Check with RFreceiver with AC and ARC enable if they are received.

If an RFXCOM device is in error contact RFXCOM support!

It is better not to use KAKU sensors in a Home Automation environment!!!

I had not the correct baud rate for port 1 it should be 38400 and 8 bits, none parity and 1 stopbit.
Thanks Bert for the quick response at the support mail.
