I have updated from 3.2 to 4.3.15.

I see that they have FF witch means disabled… How to enable them?

Switch Weg "Weg" <motion> {channel="velbus:vmbgpod:0321e171:40:CH9", autoupdate="false"}

rule "Alarm modus - Weg - dummy"
when
    Channel 'velbus:vmbgpod:0321e171:40:input#CH9' triggered PRESSED
    or Item Weg received command ON
then    

    logInfo("Alarm", "Weg-modus geactiveerd test")

end

Bridge velbus:bridge:0321e171 [ port="COM4", timeUpdateInterval="360", reconnectionInterval="15"] {
    Thing vmbmeteo 08 [ address="08" ]
    Thing vmbmeteo 09 [ address="09" ]
    Thing vmbgpod 40 [ address="40" ]
    Thing vmbgpod 44 [ address="44" ]
    Thing vmbgpod 48 [ address="48" ]
    Thing vmbgpod 4C [ address="4C" ]
    Thing vmbpiro 70 [ address="70" ]
    Thing vmbpiro 71 [ address="71" ]
    Thing vmbpiro 72 [ address="72" ]
    Thing vmbpiro 73 [ address="73" ]
    Thing vmb2ble B1 [ address="B1" ]
    Thing vmb2ble B2 [ address="B2" ]
 
}

I did a manual scan, but the vmbgpod 40, 44, 48, 4C are not in the list…

Can you confirm that buttons 1 to 8 work with the way you have it added at the moment?

Due to things like this, I tend to add modules in the main UI so that the Thing is configured perfectly.

After that, I tend to use text files for Items, purely as I find it easier to bulk edit or find silly typos.

You are correct, button 1 to 8 is working.
I like more the thing configuration in the files. To bad this not working.
I will try to make it work with the UI.

Excellent news.

I would suggest disabling your Text Thing and add the OLED in the UI, purely to prove it works.

Then you can recreate the Thing configuration in Text.

I suspect it is how the extra base addresses are added in the Text file.

Excellent news.

Are you happy to leave the Thing in the MainUI or are you comfortable moving this configuration to a Text file?

I’d be very interested to see the resulting Text Thing file, as I don’t use them myself.
