accept new hardware - Prevent creating MQTT AD devices Topic is solved

[JuanUil]

Hi Folks,

So I am on the latest beta and zwave-js.
A lot of new, mostly irrelevant, devices appear.
When I remove them I constantly get the message that accept new hardware is disabled.
When I let them be accepted as new devices and put them as not being used they are still questioned which sometimes slows down my response.
Is there a way to get rid of these devices permanently?

Regards
Jan

I believe there is an option in Zwave-JS-UI somewhere to not publish those unwanted device to MQTT and then they won't appear in Domoticz.

Okey, but find the Watt/kWh not important?
If you go to the devices overview, you can set them unused, and they won't show up in the utility tab

That is correct they don't show up but are still interviewed altough I have set them to disabled in Zwavejs-ui and set them to unused in the devices overview

You probably still have retained MQTT config topics in your MQTT broker. https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/MQTT#Dele ... ined_topic

Deleted all messages but problem remains

[waltervl]

And restart the Domoticz MQTT AD hardware gateway (press on update button) or restart Domoticz completely as indicated in the wiki section I referred to.

Are those not needed MQTT AD config topics gone or recreated by zwave-js-ui?

That did the trick!!

Restartet the broker and all well now, no more interviewing.
Thnx for the help!!
