Item is set to 0 immediately after update since 2.1

Setup, Configuration and Use Items & Sitemaps

Hi!
After upgrading to 2.1. I noticed one Item being set to 0 immediately after receiving some non-zero value. The item is connected to the “power” channel of an AVM Powerline 546E device. Unfortunately the time between the two events (receiving non-zero value and being reset to zero) is too short for any rule to fire.

Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hey Johannes,

do you use the FRITZ!Powerline in Standalone mode (thing type FRITZ_Powerline_546E_Solo) or not (thing type FRITZ_Powerline_546E)?

Would you be so kind to post your items file or an abstract of your log file. Thx.

Hi Christoph,

I was able to solve the probleme last evening. And it had indeed something to do with your question. I had used the standalone mode and it worked in OH2.0

When I switched to FRITZ_Powerline_546E everything worked fine in OH2.1 as well. If you are still interested in the item file or log files, let me know. I can post them later today.

Thanks for your help and your work!

Nice, I am glad you got it running.

I asked because I know there is a bug in the method which updates the channel states in the standalone configuration. I fixed it with PR #2363, which is already merged and will be available in upcoming snapshot soon:

Great to hear, thanks again!
