I did make the change and again I want to thank you for the help. You have a good week end.

I am back, I started thinking how does this thing know where to look for the info the way I have it set up. Well it didn't and even through it was on the list in ISY in the Admin Console it did not work. So I changed it to the following I think following what you were telling me and it is now working. [ {"id": "sonoff01", "type": "s31", "name": "Washer PWR", "status_topic": "tele/sonoff01/SENSOR", "cmd_topic": "cmnd/sensor/POWER"}, {"id": "sonoff11", "type": "switch", "name": "Washer Ctrl" "status_topic": "stat/sonoff01/POWER", "cmd_topic": "cmnd/sonoff01/power"}, {"id": "sonoff02", "type": "switch", "status_topic": "stat/sonoff02/POWER", "cmd_topic": "cmnd/sonoff02/power"} ]

Hi TriLife, thank you for getting back with me. That info did help and I did get it working. The following is what I had in my devlist and did not work: [ {"id": "sonoff01", "type": "s31", "status_topic": "tele/sonoff01/SENSOR", "cmd_topic": "cmnd/sensor/POWER"}, {"id": "sonoff01", "type": "switch", "status_topic": "stat/sonoff01/POWER", "cmd_topic": "cmnd/sonoff01/power"}, {"id": "sonoff02", "type": "switch", "status_topic": "stat/sonoff02/POWER", "cmd_topic": "cmnd/sonoff02/power"} ] Sonoff01 worked as sensor device and sonoff02 worked as a control device but sonoff01 did not work as a control device. I changed the following and now sonoff11 is working as a Ctrl device also. Would you tell me the things I changed but did not need to change. [ {"id": "sonoff01", "type": "s31", "name": "Washer Power", "status_topic": "tele/sonoff01/SENSOR", "cmd_topic": "cmnd/sensor/POWER1"}, {"id": "sonoff11", "type": "switch", "name": "Washer Ctrl" "status_topic": "stat/sonoff11/POWER2", "cmd_topic": "cmnd/sonoff11/power2"}, {"id": "sonoff02", "type": "switch", "status_topic": "stat/sonoff02/POWER", "cmd_topic": "cmnd/sonoff02/power"} ] Thank you again so very much for all the help.

Hi Maxnorth, I did try this and it did let me set it up in the MQTT config but when I go to the Plugin and try to add a node as a switch it gives me an error. I was thing I should be able to do this also; I don’t need it but it was worth a try. I may play with this later. Thank you for the info.

Hi Maxnorth, I think at some time in all my attempts of getting this thing running I did try that. I do think that part of my problem may have been that my system needed updated, it’s all a blur now but I thing I did an update and things started working. I will go back and try that and let you know how it turns out, thanks for the info.

Hi All, Just got it working as a power monitor, I want to thank you all for the help. Thai is the config line I used [ {"id": "sonoff01", "type": "s31", "status_topic": "tele/sonoff01/SENSOR", "cmd_topic": "cmnd/sensor/POWER"} ] The thing is I have tried this before but it is working, now I can expand on this. Thank you all again.

Hi, sorry to keep bugging you but can you tell me is a Sonoff S31 setup as a switch or a sensor. I use the type of S31 ut does all the other setting stay the same as a switch? I have and I am getting Status as False. [ {"id": "sonoff01", "type": "s31", "status_topic": "stat/sonoff01/POWER", "cmd_topic": "cmnd/sonoff1/power"} ]

Hi, I did change the sonoff2 to sonoff1 and the type "s31" so that I can red power numbers. That id start up on my eisy Admin console but all numbers are "0". Can I do control and power monitor on the same device at the same time?

Hi TriLife, that did work and I had it just like that, I copied it from the help page and changed the 1 to an 01 and it did not work, I then add the "device". I just copied your list and plugged it in and it worked, changed to 1 to an 01. I must have a space missing or something. Thank you so very much.

Hi sjenkins, I have attached a snapshot on the config file for just one device that I copied from the help page and the changed the name to my device. MQTT is telling me that it is not correct. I am only going to be using a couple of devices as of now and if I can get one working it may sink into my old head. Thank you for the help

Thank you for the info but I was not looking for old info I was just following a link that I hoped would help me find the info I need. I will look and see if there is anything that can help me. Thank you again.

I will do that and thank you again, this is a project that does not need to be done today or even next week, just sometime.

No I have not, I have not seen any doc that tell me that and I have looked. I do not know how to save a file to my eisy or the devfile. I have only had Insteon devices in the past and my programs for that. If you can point me to a doc on this I am more than happy to work on it. Thank you again for the help

Thanks for the reply, I think not getting to this page is the least of my problems. If you look at the attached when I click on the "this thread" it gives me the error that I don't have access rights to the page, and I am logged in. But as far as the other questions I did install the MQTT plug in and I do see it in my Admin Console but just the MQTT icon no devices. But back on the Polyglot V3 page I am getting an error of "Waiting on valid configuration" of the MQTT(3) when setting up the plug-in.

I did install the Node Server and reading the info I get an error telling me I do not have access rights, see attached. Thank you for the Node Server help.
