@wutu veeeeeryyyy nice, much thx… works like a charm

i have invert the switch On/OffMessage

    {
      "class": "MqttSwitch",
      "id": "switch_az",
      "name": "Arbeitszimmer",
      "topic": "/switch_az/gpio/2",
      "stateTopic": "/switch_az/Switch_1/Switch",
      "onMessage": "0",
      "offMessage": "1"
    },

this settings

and a little rule

Bild Text

on Switch_1#Switch do
  if [Switch_1#Switch]=1
    gpio,2,0
  else
    gpio,2,1
  endif
endon

…and now i`m hope the R95 was stable ^^

@wutu

now i have 2 ESPEasy-devices with R95 in my network…

but i lost very often the connection to the broker.

it seems they have the same Client-Names “ESPClient0”

where i could configure that name??

wutu

Only Unit nr:
On the Config page. The result is ESPClient + Unit nr.

@noxx @xCite86
I finally had time to test it. Configuration is unnecessarily complex. It is due to change default topic.
If you use a device name: “gpio” and Value name as GPIO numbers.
It works with one topic.

    {
      "class": "MqttSwitch",
      "id": "switch_az",
      "name": "Arbeitszimmer",
      "topic": "/switch_az/gpio/2",
      "onMessage": "0",
      "offMessage": "1"
    }

EDIT:
If you do not need to change the basic parameters of the actuator. It is not necessary to configure ESPEasy at all. Immediately after flash, everything works.
Topics can be derived from http commands.

http://<ESP IP address>/control?cmd=GPIO,<pin>,0 == topic: /sysname/gpio/2 message:0/1 (0.00/1.00 for R78)
http://<ESP IP address>/control?cmd=PWM,<pin>,<level> == topic: /sysname/pwm/<pin> message: <level>
http://<ESP IP address>/control?cmd=pcapwm,<pin>,<Level> == topic: /sysname/pcapwm/<pin> message: 0-4095
And so on

@wutu

today i update my esp to espeasy build 103

now, i cant control my relays with pimatic
it works with my browser, e.g.
http://192.168.1.226/control?cmd=GPIO,15,1
http://192.168.1.226/control?cmd=GPIO,15,0

but not with pimatic
plugin mqtt 0.8.9 is installed

my config:

    {
      "plugin": "mqtt",
      "host": "127.0.0.1",
      "port": 1883
    }

    {
      "class": "MqttSwitch",
      "id": "ESPeasyR1",
      "name": "Beleuchtung (R1)",
      "topic": "/espeasy01/gpio/12",
      "stateTopic": "/espeasy01/Beleuchtung_R1/state",
      "onMessage": "1",
      "offMessage": "0"
    },
    {
      "class": "MqttSwitch",
      "id": "ESPeasyR2",
      "name": "Beleuchtung (R2)",
      "topic": "/espeasy01/gpio/13",
      "stateTopic": "/espeasy01/Beleuchtung_R2/state",
      "onMessage": "1",
      "offMessage": "0"
    },
    {
      "class": "MqttSwitch",
      "id": "ESPeasyR3",
      "name": "Beleuchtung (R3)",
      "topic": "/espeasy01/gpio/14",
      "stateTopic": "/espeasy01/Beleuchtung_R3/state",
      "onMessage": "1",
      "offMessage": "0"
    },
    {
      "class": "MqttSwitch",
      "id": "ESPeasyR4",
      "name": "Heizung (R4)",
      "topic": "/espeasy01/gpio/15",
      "stateTopic": "/espeasy01/Heizung_R4/state",
      "onMessage": "1",
      "offMessage": "0"
    }

mosquttito works also fine

@noxx I do not see reason to use state topic.
Everything it should work only on the topic /espeasy01/<Name>/state.
There are softwares that send status to a side channel, but ESPEasy not one of them.

noxx

i use Stage to get the correct status.
if I push the button and have no connection, pimatic show the wrong value

but I think that is not the reason of my problem

Edit:

But, i will try it with

    {
      "class": "MqttSwitch",
      "id": "ESPeasyR1",
      "name": "Beleuchtung (R1)",
      "topic": "/espeasy01/gpio/12",
      "onMessage": "1",
      "offMessage": "0"
    },

EDIT 2:

ok, it runs better without stateToptic, but Pimatic shows wrong states if i switch ESPeasy with other devices, e.g. browser

4nubis

Did you solve the problem of the wrong state?

Edit…Okay its simple…for state the same command like for topic

schmucke

Can anyone show me the how dit i connect a 4 Relay Module to the WEMOS d1 Mini?

wutu

Hey @schmucke,

I used:
gpio/12
gpio/13
gpio/14
gpio/16

schmucke

@wutu

Dit you have it connect direct from the ESP to the relay? How dit you connect the relay with 5v? Direct from the ESP?

@schmucke said in ESPeasy - add a relay:

Can anyone show me the how dit i connect a 4 Relay Module to the WEMOS d1 Mini?

See https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index.php/Relais

Dit you have it connect direct from the ESP to the relay? How dit you connect the relay with 5v? Direct from the ESP?

As you can see VCC on the input side is wired to 3.3V. The relay board should have an extra VCC in for the relay coils which is wired to 5V as shown in the diagram

schmucke

Thank you!

i give them a try.
