Bond Bridge
Model: BD-1000
Bond ID: ZZxxxxxx
Firmware: 2.15.8
When I try to add the remote as a generic device my Bond bridge appears to learn / detect the button press ok, blinking green, but I cannot control the roller blind from the bond bridge / app. If it is of any use a couple of times I did notice the frequency detected by the bridge was slightly different, i.e. 433.xx where xx may vary.
It appears to advertise “The Alpha remote control system applies a 66 rolling code program with 268 million possible combinations which virtually eliminates any chance of programming duplication.”
I’m assuming that would mean it’s not compatible with Bond?
Thanks. We’re taking a look into this now. However the prospects are not good. It not only has a counter and prevents replay attacks, but also has some obfuscation of the rest of the packet. Could be as secure a as a garage door rolling code. Anyways… if we solve it, we will let you know for sure.
Hi, it is possible to connect multiple remotes by pairing them together. By putting the remote in the clone mode. Is it possible to ‘fake’ this copy mode on the bond bridge and that way pair it as a new remote?
For Alpha shades? No. Alpha shades use a rolling code which protects against replay attacks. That means that a cloned signal will be ignored if it was already processed by the receiver in the motor. Will require us to reverse the rolling code.
