Why does ioBroker.sonoff tries to set the relay state via "tele/DeviceTopic/POWER"?

[openshwprojects]

Hello, I am trying to pair my own multiplatform IoT firmware with ioBroker. I have a question about MQTT protocol for ioBroker My firmware supports most of Tasmota syntax, so cmnd, etc, are mostly working. I also publish a "tele" json packet periodically. IObroker is able to detect my device: but when I try to change the POWER1 or any other switch state, the new state becomes red and my device does not respond. I looked at the packets with Wireshark: Suprisingly, the ioBroker seems to be publishing a "tele/DeviceTopic/POWER" instead of "cmnd/DeviceTopic/POWER".

More info about the packet - you can clearly see it's a TELE with POWER ON:

It seems that something is wrong or is missing on my side, but I am unable to determine what.

Can someone experienced in ioBroker inner workings can tell me what would cause the ioBroker to think that "tele" is a command topic? Which Tasmota packet/MQTT support am I missing?

NOTE: I also get:

sonoff.0	2023-01-24 12:05:16.336	warn	(22540) Client [obk8C112233] Message 125 deleted after 11 retries

but sadly ioBroker doesn't tell me anything else what is this about...

Please post a debug log from sonoff adapter of such a case ... maybe we can see more there

Hello, I may be doing something wrong, but first I changed log level to "silly" in iobroker.json and in 3 minutes I got 6GB log file which was unacceptable, now I am at log level "debug": And after I see that iobroker received tele from my device, I change POWER2 to true, and then the value is shown in red and in log I got only:

Am I using log incorrectly?

NOTE: I reboot after each change.

iobroker.json sets the loglevel fort the js-controller, this is not what you want :-)

You want: Admin - Instances - enable expertmode - expnd the sonoff.0 instance, set "loglevel" to debug (silly not needed).

@Apollon77 I will do that right now but I will report now two more findings.

1. It seems that Tasmota devices are also getting "tele/tasDevice/POWER2" with "ON" argument as a command - so the broker is using "tele" instead of "cmnd" ? This is sent when I toggle RELAY on ioBroker GUI

2. When I changed my firmware to process "tele/devName/POWER2" as command with payload as argument, it works, you can see video I uploaded on our forum in this post: https://www.elektroda.com/rtvforum/viewtopic.php?p=20402828#20402828

My question now would be - is it really true, is sonoff iobroker plugin using tele/devName/POWER2 ON to toggle power on on TAS device? Or is my wireshark failing me? Or did I configure something very, very wrong... I am really unable to capture any other packets.

ich denke ich habe was ähnliches.

` on({id: 'sonoff.0.buero.POWER', change: "any"}, function (obj) {

log('power', "warn");
log(obj, "warn");

});`

wenn man jetzt auf power einen listener on change "any" dann wird dieser immer wieder getriggert.... je nach anwendung sehr mühsam.
