MQTT publish message

[martin8310]

Hello,

I'm happy with that tool, really great work.

But I have two questions:

1. Is it possible to add also the external temperature sensor (NTC) information?
2. How can I publish a MQTT command to reset all the values on the dl24? The standard subscribe topic looks like that "dl24_last/sensor/dl24_last_spannung/state"

Regards
Martin

1. Unfortunately the measurement of the external temperature sensor isn't part of the BLE notification payload.
2. The standard button topic should look like this: device_topic/button/button_id/command. You have to publish the message "PRESS" there. The node should pick up the message and press the selected button entity.

Hi,

unfortunately "dl24_last/button/reset_all/command" payload: PRESS dosn't work. Do you have an example for me?

[syssi]

Could you provide your configuration yaml? I assume the button_id isn't correct.

[martin8310]

It is your original config

[syssi]

If it's the original config, what's the name of your node? The name is part of the button_id.

F.e. this is some traffic:

basement-btle-gateway/sensor/basement-btle-gateway_dim_backlight/state 60
basement-btle-gateway/sensor/basement-btle-gateway_voltage/state 0.00
basement-btle-gateway/sensor/basement-btle-gateway_current/state 0.000
basement-btle-gateway/sensor/basement-btle-gateway_power/state 0.0000
basement-btle-gateway/sensor/basement-btle-gateway_capacity/state 0.000
basement-btle-gateway/sensor/basement-btle-gateway_energy/state 0
basement-btle-gateway/sensor/basement-btle-gateway_temperature/state 22
basement-btle-gateway/sensor/basement-btle-gateway_runtime_formatted/state (null)
basement-btle-gateway/sensor/basement-btle-gateway_dim_backlight/state 60

The name of my node is basement-btle-gateway. The prefix of the button_id is basement-btle-gateway too. In your case it's dl24_last I guess.

[syssi]

This is working for me:

mosquitto_pub -t 'basement-btle-gateway/button/basement-btle-gateway_reset_all/command' -m 'PRESS'

Please try

mosquitto_pub -t 'dl24_last/button/dl24_last_reset_all/command' -m 'PRESS'

So, correct is"dl24_last/button/dl24_last_reset_all/command" in my case. Payload: PRESS

A description with an example in your documentation would be good ;-)

thank you

How can i send this mosquitto_pub -t 'dl24_last/button/dl24_last_reset_all/command' -m 'PRESS' over iobroker. Is it possible to communicate with the DL24 via mqtt in iobroker. I usually use Blockly for programming?
