I am using the numeric input to allow user to set a value of 0-3 for 10 items. I can set them but they only propagate to the next node when a user changes the value. I would like all ten to output at startup with stored values or when a user changes the value to a switch for further processing.
Are you using MQTT? If not then you probably should be. Then you can publish the values to MQTT as Retained Topics and then on restart you can make it populate the values from MQTT.
