Hello, when I open/close my window my zwave device gives me a feedback about the opening status of the window. here is my z wave device: Switch Z_way_switch_DoorWindowSensor14 "Balkontür [MAP(windowdoorcontact.map):%s]" <door> (group_house_doorwindow){ channel="zway:zwayDevice:smarthome:14:sensor…

I’d do it this way, put the channel-follow directly on the source Item Switch Z_way_switch_DoorWindowSensor14 "Balkontür [MAP(windowdoorcontact.map):%s]" <door> (group_house_doorwindow){ channel="zway:zwayDevice:smarthome:14:sensorBinary-ZWayVDev_zway_14-0-113-6-Door-A" , channel="mqtt:topic:status…

An alternative is create an MQTT thing and assign a command channel to your existing Item (as well as your zwave) with a follow profile.

If you want to send a message out over MQTT, you want command topic not state topic. After you’ve fixed that channel, you can link it to your Item as a second channel, but qualify it with the ‘follow’ profile. That will make the channel see any Item updates as simulated commands and send to MQTT

My configuration looks like Bridge mqtt:broker:mosquitto "MQTT Broker: Mosquitto" [ host="xxxxx", port=1883, clientID="openHAB2", secure="false"] Thing mqtt:topic:statusdisplay (mqtt:broker:mosquitto) { Type string : schlafzimmer "schlafzimmer" [ commandTopic="statusdisplay/status/window/schlaf…

[image] milo: no message is published? Do you see Z_way_switch_DoorWindowSensor14 changing in your events.log? What to? You’ve linked a string type mqtt channel to a switch type Item, I don’t know if anything works with that. If you use a switch channel and want to convert ON/OFF to somethi…

the switch alone is working Type switch : schlafzimmer "schlafzimmer" [ commandTopic="statusdisplay/status/window/schlafzimmer", on="open", off="close"] Switch testmqqtswitch "test" <switch> {channel="mqtt:topic:statusdisplay:schlafzimmer" [profile="follow", profile-parameterID="Z_way_switch_Door…
