Switch doesn't word on homebridge

[edmarts]

Hello! I use Homebridge and Node-Red on my Mac and I'm having problems with automations. When a device passes through the switch or any other node it loses its content and I cannot perform other actions. Am I doing it wrong?

For instance: if I turn on the bedroom light, turn on the fan ... if I turn off the bedroom light, turn off the fan.

Do you filled the switch-node with logic?

[edmarts]

I filled with two options: == true == false

I don't have home assistant, only homebridge.

[sinowine]

I use homebridge only too. Can you show how you configured the switch-node?

You have to use "msg.payload.On" instead of "msg.payload" only ;)

And a tipp from me, I use always two switch-nodes to name it like "on" and "off" for example. One for the true-state and one for the false-state.

I already tried use msg.payload.On but still does not send the command.

Please try it after you named the switch. I think this could be the problem.

[edmarts]

Nothing :'(

Hmm. Deployed after changing?

[edmarts]

Yep!

Try adding a debug node to listen to the messages coming from the light, and show them on the debug panel. It is likely a minor issue.

Also that node only emits messages when the device is controlled, so you would need to turn it on or off to trigger a message.

I've done this. When you add the debug directly to the light it's ok. When the switch is add to the light, nothing happens.

Yep! See the image

I found the "error"!!

I change the "==" signal on switch for "is true/is false" boolean (see the image) and works!
