Newbie here.

I am working on a simple project that turns relays on/off via the dashboard. I also want to set the relays ON via an automated script to turn on at a specific time in the morning. Using the Inject node, I can get the event to occur but ONLY the 1st relay will show the status correctly on the UI -- the other 3 execute the command properly but DON'T change the switch state on the UI. See screenshots below:

I've spent lots of time reviewing the settings for each UI switch and input trying to make sure they are all the same. Here are the settings on Relay 1. They are the same for relay 2, 3, 4.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,  
Tom

Here is the NR flow where you can see the statuses of the relays all ON..

You did not share the configuration of the inject node. My best guess is that the payload received by the ui\_switch node is not matching the data type configured for on / off. You configured the switch nodes to send numbers 0/1 when clicked, so it is mandatory that the inject node send `msg.payload` with values 0 or 1 .

From the node help:

`In pass through mode the switch state can be updated by an incoming msg.payload with the specified values, that must also match the specified type (number, string, etc).`

I found a behavior that is not intuitive for me.

I managed to find a way to replicate a case where the ui\_switch will not update its status in the editor.

Looks like it is a must that we wire something to the output of the ui\_switch in order for it to update the status. In below testing flow the behavior is different when the debug nodes are wired / not wired.

At least this is what is seems to happen in my environment.

Can anyone test and confirm ?

Hi Andrei -

Below is the inject node. It has the same data type, number.

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/nodered/original/2X/8/869fd8c83a037e7c1d5cd3c3665486b5ace8a0ea.png)

Thanks for looking at this.

@teoboyle post here an example non-working flow, just as many nodes as you need to show the problem. See [this post](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/how-to-share-code-or-flow-json/506) for how to share a flow.

In which case sounds good. When building a flow like yours it works for me.  
As @Colin suggested we would need to have a look on your flow, if you can share it.
