Hello everybody
Yes, it's a beginners question and yes, there are many instructions on the web, but no, I didn't find something helping me
I use a Shelly 2 for a blind and a Sonoff mini for a bulb. Both are working with Tasmota.
The bulb have to be on or off dependig the blind is up or down. So I created the following flow, but it is not workig.
In the debug1 the msg.payload is "ON", that's correct
With the change node, msg.payload is changed to OFF
The debug2 also shows me as result the msg.payload "OFF", so everything is correct til now. This msg.payload is sended finally to the mqtt out node. This module is actually ON and should change to OFF now, but nothing happens. Why that?
It looks like you have changed the standard topic settings.
You can check or change them, via -
%prefix% = one of three prefixes as defined by commands Prefix1(default = cmnd), Prefix2(default = stat) and Prefix3(default = tele).
Personally I would recommend leaving them at default, unless there is a very good reason. Otherwise you will have issues with future support as we don't know how you have things setup, it's difficult to help you.
Either change back to default, or post here exactly what you have setup, so we can try and figure out what you need to use as a topic with the above flow.
Another thing you could try is to check what your Tasmota "Console" is reporting.
Go to the IP address of your Tasmota device and click on the Console option.
You should see what Tasmota is publishing via MQTT.
As you can see the topic 'tele/node54/STATE' is reported every 300 secs (5 minutes) while 'stat/node54/POWER' and 'stat/node54/RESULT' are reported more frequently.
Another option is to install MQTT Explorer (or equivalent) and become a "network detective".
Hi everybody
