Hello,

the node names are interesting, but I did not find any (english) documenation how to use the nodes ? Are there any ? Are there examples ?

Thank you

Hi @benfiglin

I don't know how to express it, Can you explain it to him ? Thank you

Simple use node

  1. Drag a binary_ sensor node in view
  2. Open binary_ sensor node
  3. Select MQTT Config
  4. Input Entity Name
  5. Click finish
  6. Click deploy

If you delete it in homeassistant, you can rediscover it

  1. Drag a Auto Discovery node in view
  2. Send Any data in node
  3. Automatically discover all related devices under MQTT

Hello,

thank you, but I tried to use the output from a "switch" node and changes the state in HA, but no reaction on the switch Output. So it would be helpful also to document such feature...

And the "Auto discovery" I did not understand for what it is....

search icon is Discovery Node

If you delete this device in homeassistant，It can be rediscovered by triggering the discovery node
