entity doesn't work - fabuena - 02-05-2023
I had my KC868-A8 running under ESPHOME. With KCS firmware ESPHOME doesn't work...
I configure my MQTT server and it is connected with KCS to home assistant.
Now I tried to use the Output-1 switch. I edit my configuration.yaml and write:
mqtt:
switch:
- name: 'output-1'
unique_id: output-1
state_topic: 'KC868_A8/4091519110F8/state'
command_topic: 'KC868_A8/4091519110F8/set'
payload_on: '{"relay1":{"on":1}}'
payload_off: '{"relay1":{"on":0}}'
value_template: '{{ value_json.relay1.on }}'
state_on: 1
state_off: 0
I can see the entity but it doesn't work.
I'm beginer. Can you help me?

here is KCS mqtt protocol: https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2529
in "KCS" use : {"output1":{"value":true}}
not '{"relay1":{"on":1}}'
value_template: '{{ value_json.relay1.on }}' should be value_template: '{{ value_json.output1.value }}'
here is mqtt config demo for A32， A8 is same: https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2543

Thank you very much but I am not be able to make it works
Attached send you some pintures.
Now my code is:
mqtt:
switch:
- name: 'output1'
unique_id: output1
command_topic: 'KC868_A8/4091519110F8/set'
state_topic: 'KC868_A8/4091519110F8/state'
payload_on: '{"output1":{"value":true}}'
payload_off: '{"output1":{"value":false}}'
value_template: '{{ value_json.output1.value }}'
state_on: true
state_off: false
RE: entity doesn't work - admin - 02-06-2023
command_topic: 'KC868_A8/4091519110F8/set' should use 'KC868_A8/4091519110F8/SET'
state_topic: 'KC868_A8/4091519110F8/state' should use 'KC868_A8/4091519110F8/STATE'
SET and STATE should be capitalized

Now it works.
