I have created some buttons and a binary sensor to control my camera via MQTT. This works and I am able to rotate the camera or move the camera to the different positions.
However, it does not work to create a switch (Wohnzimmer Kamera Area1) via which I could activate the monitoring of Area 1. I do not get an error message, but the switch does not appear in the entities either.
What am I doing wrong here?
