Your second error is because you didn’t read the docs, both for OH and tasmotta: From tasmota wiki - openHAB section: [image] GitHub - arendst/Tasmota: Alternative firmware for ESP8266 and ESP32 based... Alternative firmware for ESP8266 and ESP32 based devices with easy configur…

I did read through the entire article. I made the following changes also, Switch Sonoff4ch_4Channel1 “Channel 1” [ “Switchable” ] (LR,gLight) { mqtt=“>[broker:sonoff/cmnd/Sonoff4ch_4/POWER1:command::default],<[broker:sonoff/stat/Sonoff4ch_4/POWER1:state:default]" } Switch Sonoff4ch_4Channel2 “Cha…
