Hi everyone,
I’m a bit lost with my Sonoff Switch.
It supports Tasmota and I got that up and running by some third party person that is kind enough to sell the switch pre-flashed with Tasmota.
I entered all the details in Tasmota, the config for the device I found here: Sonoff TX Ultimate 3 Gang Switch (T5-3C-86) Configuration for Tasmota
I was instructed to set the following to rules in the device, of which I have little understanding what it exactly does, but I think it mainly configures the behaviour of the touch panel.
rule1 on TXultimate#Action=Short do backlog Buzzer 1,1; I2SSay Activated endon rule1 1
rule2 on TXUltimate#Action=Touch do break on TXUltimate#Channel<4 do power1 toggle endon on TXUltimate#Channel=4 do power2 toggle endon on TXUltimate#Channel=5 do power2 toggle endon on TXUltimate#Channel=6 do power2 toggle endon on TXUltimate#Channel=7 do power2 toggle endon on TXUltimate#Channel>7 do power3 toggle endon rule2 1
I was also instructed to upload some autoexec.be, which I did. I think that’s the driver file.
I added the MQTT details of my HA installation, and the Switch was quite immediately available in HA:
I can properly turn the switches on and off and toggle the backlight.
But here comes the issue: I cannot toggle anything from the switch itself, so the way from the switch to HA is somehow not working at all.
I can tell in the console that the Switch is recognizing my touch and that a lot is happening, but it goes unnoticed by Home Assistant:
I did not find anything on the internet on this combination of device and tasmota, so I’m turning to you for help
I tried to reset the device (three times), removed it from HA, then reset the device, nothing happened. Other Tasmota device works well (a plug). Other MQTT devices work well (I use Z2M). I wanted to try and setup a new HA instance as VM on my computer, but I fail to connect via MQTT there - no clue why … Nmap does not show ports as open, but I can access the HTTP port via browser. It makes no sense to me.
So I’m really, really lost here …
Any idea what else I could try?
