Install the package named <kbd>rtl-433</kbd> on most distributions on Linux. It's
|
|
|
|
|
also available on [FreeBSD](https://ports.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=rtl-433).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You might want to install
|
|
|
|
|
[these udev-Rules](https://github.com/osmocom/rtl-sdr/blob/master/rtl-sdr.rules).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
FYI, reloading these rules with:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
|
|
|
$ sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then we should be able to run the program like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
|
|
|
$ rtl_433 -C si -M hires -M level -M stats -Y auto
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will look per default on 433.29 MHz, other available frequencies are 315, 345,
|
|
|
|
|
868 and 915 MHz. To listen on other frequencies add `-f 868M` to the command above
|
|
|
|
|
for example.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I've installed this on a laptop running Ubuntu.
