Simple Gate Status - Solved

[n61ab]

I am using the Node "simple-gate" with the topic set to "control" and msg.payload "open or close", to command the gate.

I want to use the gate open/close status to operate an LED and other logic.

There is no direct way to get the status from the simple-gate Node.

Could members of this forum suggest techniques to indirectly derive the gate status?

The Status node can report the status of the gate.

The second example provided with the node (Dashboard Control) shows how to do this.

Thanks, drmibell and E1cid. I see......the "status" node. Perfect.
