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 correctl…

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

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 …

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 b…

I see clearly now. You may want to change data type to number. Only the first switch is configured for number type . The others are configured to string type. [r-01] [r-02]

@teoboyle post here an example non-working flow, just as many nodes as you need to show the problem. See this post for how to share a flow.
