  alias: Shellies Announce
  trigger:
    - platform: homeassistant
      event: start
    - platform: time_pattern
      hours: "/12"  # Modifying this if you are using Shelly Motion can drain your device's battery quickly.
  action:
    service: mqtt.publish
    data:
      topic: shellies/command
      payload: announce

Have you tried looking at mqtt messages with some client like mosquitto-sub?

I tried to look with MQTT-Explorer… but if I’m honest don’t know what I’m doing :smiley:

I can paste what I get…

Great thread all - prompted me to buy one for research.

Has anyone any experience of feeding the sensor inputs (S1-4 / N) on the bottom of the Pro PMs with ultra-low voltage (5-12v)? Thinking along the lines of separating the sensors to run as ULV wall switches in a new build with the 240v relays being having relatively separate logic to run mains power.

Yours,

S.

Just one remark for the 4PM: all 4 lines must be on the same phase L. So it is not possible to connect multiple phases L1, L2, L3 to it.
