Hello,

I have a 4 channel relay on a nodemcu.

Which looks like this.

switch:

  • platform: gpio
    pin: D1
    name: “Salon1”
    id: Relay_1
  • platform: gpio
    pin: D2
    name: “Salon2”
    id: Relay_2
  • platform: gpio
    pin: D3
    name: “Salon3”
    id: Relay_3
  • platform: gpio
    pin: D4
    name: “Salon4”
    id: Relay_4

How can i setup these as lights ?

I can only do one of the relays with this. Couldn’t manage to get the other 3 working.

Please post the yaml and logs for what doesn’t work.

This is what it looks like.

light:
  - platform: binary
    name: "Light 1"
    output: light_output1
  - platform: binary
    name: "Light 2"
    output: light_output2
  - platform: binary
    name: "Light 3"
    output: light_output3
  - platform: binary
    name: "Light 4"
    output: light_output4    

output:
  - id: light_output1
    platform: gpio
    pin: D1
  - id: light_output2
    platform: gpio
    pin: D2
  - id: light_output3
    platform: gpio
    pin: D3
  - id: light_output4
    platform: gpio
    pin: D4
