(resolved) Sonoff (tasmota v11) does not update the state of the switches

Setup, Configuration and Use Beginners
1

hi, i just got in touch with this platform, i was amazed by its granular and complete organization. it remains a bit difficult for me to configure things.
as a first test I know trying to configure a sonoff 4ch I managed to create the switches, and they work … but the status of the same does not update automatically. I tried a few adjustments found around the forum, but with negative effect.
I will certainly make a mistake in doing something, but I have run out of attempts and I can no longer go on.
i am operating on OH3 with local operhabian server and cloud.
Thanks for your help

Please show your full openHAB and Tasmota configuration for this setup.

You might try using values “ON” and “OFF” instead of “1” and “0”. Those are the values used by my Sonoff-SV with Tasmota.

I have already tried but nothing changes

I’m using OH 2.5 with text configs and some Tasmota 11.x.x devices, but I think you have the wrong stateTopic, which should be:

stateTopic: stat/Sonoff4chGar/RESULT

You then need a JSON transformation to get the value of RESULT. I’m not yet familiar with OH 3.X, but the JSON transformation from my text configs is:

transformationPattern="JSONPATH:$.POWER#"

In your case, replace the # above with the channel number (1 through 4) as appropriate.

I also think you need on and off defined as follows:

off="OFF"
on="ON"

Hope this helps!

When I have MQTT issues, I find MQTT Explorer very useful.

In commandTopic and stateTopic POWER should be uppercase, see my config.
