@ChenH
Please see this:

https://docs.nspanel.pky.eu/faq/#waiting-for-content-this-is-taking-longer-than-usual-on-the-screen

If it’s still not working share the items mentioned in step 4.

@ChenH

panelRecvTopic: “tele/NSPannel/RESULT”
panelSendTopic: “cmnd/NSPannel/CustomSend”

You have changed the Full Topic in your tasmota configuration. This will result in completely different recv and send topics. Change the Full Topic in Tasmota MQTT Config back to %prefix%/%topic%/ or configure the correct channels in apps.yaml

[ChenH (chen)]

@jobraun
change to that:

restart the appdeamon container,

still “Waiting for content”

there is something (probably simple…) to do to make it work

[jobraun (Johannes Braun)]

@ChenH

panelRecvTopic: “tele/NSPannel/RESULT”
panelSendTopic: “cmnd/NSPannel/CustomSend”

Yes, now you’ve also changed your topic this needs to be the same and it’s case sensitive.

For your newest tasmota screenshot it needs to be:

panelRecvTopic: "tele/nspannel/RESULT"
panelSendTopic: "cmnd/nspannel/CustomSend"

[ChenH (chen)]

@jobraun
I remember to change it.

config:
panelRecvTopic: “tele/nspannel/RESULT”
panelSendTopic: “cmnd/nspannel/CustomSend”

I’ve notice that the template hasn’t change although I changed it, it remains:
{“NAME”:“NSPanel”,“GPIO”:[0,0,0,0,3872,0,0,0,0,0,32,0,0,0,0,225,0,480,224,1,0,0,0,33,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,4736,0],“FLAG”:0,“BASE”:1}

when it should be:
{“NAME”:“NSPanel”,“GPIO”:[0,0,0,0,3872,0,0,0,0,0,32,0,0,0,0,225,0,480,224,1,0,0,0,33,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,4736,0],“FLAG”:0,“BASE”:1,“CMND”:“ADCParam 2,11200,10000,3950 | Sleep 0 | BuzzerPWM 1”}

maybe I should start all over,
How can I wipe out tasmota and start again?

[ChenH (chen)]

@jobraun
I think I found the problem

In apps.yaml I wrote:
locale: “he_xx”

changed it to:
locale: “en_CA”

and nspannel starts to show the screensaver

[jobraun (Johannes Braun)]

@ChenH

locale: “he_xx”

you can change it to he_IL this should work

[ChenH (chen)]

Thank you for your help!

[jobraun (Johannes Braun)]

Please let me know if Hebrew language works on the panel

[ChenH (chen)]

It shows from left to right when it shoulb be from right to left

[jobraun (Johannes Braun)]

Yeah I expected this, what do I need to do to fix this?
Is it enough to reverse the order of all chars in the Hebrew Translations?

“טמפרטורת הצבע”

vs.

“עבצה תרוטרפמט”

[ChenH (chen)]

yeap,
this is the correct one:
“טמפרטורת הצבע”

would you tell me if it is possible to run this adon on homeassistant on ubuntu?

[jobraun (Johannes Braun)]

@ChenH

this is the correct one:
“טמפרטורת הצבע”

hmm, this was the one from the current translation files … how about the following screenshot? If the second one is correct I know what to do.

you can run appdaemon as a seperate docker container

[Edwin_D]

!thgir wohs ot ti teg ot esrever ni gnihtyreve tup ot gniog era uoy em llet t’noD !on hO

[ChenH (chen)]

the second one is correct.

[jobraun (Johannes Braun)]

okay, apply this change to your localization.py, restart appdaemon and tell me what happens

Update localization.py

[Shejken]

Hi

I would love to test the EU version!
