Sonoff Th16 Easyesp mqtt openhab2

paulmann · February 11, 2017, 10:32pm

Hi

i am using openhab2 and mosquitto on a raspberry pi3 and i will like some help to make the item for an Sonoff Th16
i have flash with easyesp and the setup is like this

name = Sonoffth1
protocol = openhab mqtt
locate controller = use ip address
controller ip = 192.168.0.242
Controller port = 1883
Controller user = openhab
Controller password = ***************

and i setup this

but i dont know how to make the item for temp and hum

my mqtt.cfg file is

mybroker.url=tcp://192.168.0.242:1883
mybroker.clientId=openhab
mybroker.user=openhab
mybroker.pwd=habopen
mybroker.qos=0
mybroker.retain=false
mybroker.async=true
mybroker.lwt=<last will definition>

Hi

i have flash so it is now in espeasy but i have som problem whith the item line
i have try this, but it is not working

Number Temperature_Vaerksted "Temperatur værksted [%.1f °C]" <temperature> { mqtt="<[mybroker:/openhab/Sonoffth1/Temperature:state:default]" }

christoph_wempe · February 12, 2017, 3:00pm

I integrated a Sonoff with Sonoff-Tasmota.

It was very easy!

I think the example from that Wiki is very similar to what you need.

paulmann · February 12, 2017, 3:21pm

Tanks but i have tryed all this but jeg cant get my item line right and I cant see wher i go wrong

sihui · February 12, 2017, 6:29pm

/openhab needs to be the name form tab “Config”, item “Name”
/Sonoffth1 needs to be the name from tab “Devices”, item “Name”
/Temperature needs to be the name from tab “Devices”, go to “Edit”, item “Value Name 1”

paulmann · February 12, 2017, 6:42pm

I try to change to this

Number Temperature_Vaerksted "Temperatur værksted [%.1f °C]" <temperature> { mqtt="<[mybroker:/Sonoffth1/Temp_Vaerksted/Temperature:state:default]" }

but I still dont get the info from the sonoff

can i see the data from the sonoff in musquitto somehow i am new in mosquitto

mikyh · February 12, 2017, 7:35pm

Yes, use mosquitto client. Install with:

sudo apt-get install mosquitto-clients

Then the following will display all topics and data associated with them (ctrl z to end)

mosquitto_sub -h 192.168.1.78 -t '#' -v

leave out the ‘-h 192.168.1.78’ (the ip address of the broker) if it’s on the same Raspberry Pi.

To prove mosquitto is working open another terminal session and enter this and you should see ‘test/topic helloWorld’ in the other terminal window.

mosquitto_pub -t 'test/topic' -m 'helloWorld' -h 192.168.1.78

paulmann · February 12, 2017, 7:44pm

Hi

this is working fine

so what can I be do wrong in openhab ??
pls help

Repost your /etc/openhab2/services/mqtt.cfg to check it.
I saw that you reported it in the first post here and you haven’t defined the lwt. Try to remove this option and check the openHAB2 logs for MQTT messages:

mybroker.url=tcp://192.168.0.242:1883
mybroker.clientId=openhab
mybroker.user=openhab
mybroker.pwd=habopen
mybroker.qos=0
mybroker.retain=false
mybroker.async=true
mybroker.lwt=<last will definition>

Remove this line

mybroker.lwt=<last will definition>

Check the /var/log/openhab2/openhab.log for MQTT connection messages.

Your item definition looks ok:

Number Temperature_Vaerksted "Temperatur værksted [%.1f °C]" <temperature> { mqtt="<[mybroker:/Sonoffth1/Temp_Vaerksted/Temperature:state:default]" }

paulmann · February 12, 2017, 8:18pm

here is mqtt.cfg

mybroker.url=tcp://192.168.0.242:1883
mybroker.clientId=raspberry
mybroker.user=openhab
mybroker.pwd=habopen
mybroker.qos=0
mybroker.retain=false
mybroker.async=true

Dim · February 12, 2017, 8:23pm

Try the following:

Enter into the openHAB console

ssh openhab@localhost -p 8101

with password habopen

Increase the log level to the max for the MQTT binding:

log:set TRACE org.openhab.binding.mqtt
log:set TRACE org.openhab.io.transport.mqtt

Note: Keep this console open, since this will generate aloooot of logs. To turn them off, switch back to:

log:set DEFAULT org.openhab.binding.mqtt
log:set DEFAULT org.openhab.io.transport.mqtt

monitor the openHAB log for errors (from an ssh shell)

tail -f /var/log/openhab2/openhab.log -f /var/log/openhab2/events.log

or from within the openHAB console (Ctrl+C to escape the tail):

log:tail

i dont know what the openHAB console is

Why two times the :state:default part?
Check again your item configuration

paulmann · February 12, 2017, 8:36pm

I work on the humidity jet so i haven seen this before now

so now it is

Number Temperature_Vaerksted "Temperatur værksted [%s %%]" <temperature> { mqtt="<[mybroker:/Sonoffth1/Temp_Vaerksted/Temperature:state:default]" }
Number Humidity_Vaerksted "Humidity [%.1f %%]" <climate> { mqtt="<[mybroker:/Sonoffth1/Temp_Vaerksted/Humidity:state:default]" }

and the last log now

These warnings are from Z-Wave related logs (they are fine, don’t worry :))
Check for MQTT related logs
Did you put your new items in your sitemap? Do they show now the Temp & Humidity values as they come in from the sonoff?

paulmann · February 12, 2017, 8:47pm

no ther is not temp & humidity on the sitemap from the sonoff my

sitemap code

Frame label="Thermostat" {
 Text item=Thermostat_Danfoss_Stue2 label="Thermostat Stue ved Dør [%s °C]" icon="temperature"
 Text item=Thermostat_Danfoss_Kokken label="Thermostat Køkken [%s °C]" icon="temperature"

Ok…
Since sonoff is publishing correctly the messages to your Mosquitto MQTT Broker, you need to focus on the Mosquitto to openHAB connection and item configuration.

Troubleshoot first the main connection between MQTT and OH2.

You will need to use the openHAB console for this.

To enter into the console, from an ssh shell (prompt: pi@openHABianPi:~$) in your rPi type:

sudo ssh openhab@localhost -p 8101

Enter the password: habopen

Set log levels:

log:set TRACE org.openhab.binding.mqtt
log:set TRACE org.openhab.io.transport.mqtt

restart the MQTT Binding:

bundle:restart org.openhab.binding.mqtt

Check logs for connection messages of the following kind:
