node red x domoticz x nora

Hi All,
I have been using node red x nora x domoticz for several months now....
but something is weird now.....

Image

I have a flow in NODE RED as below. I can turn it on by voice (google home) and it switches on domoticz and nora on the web, but not physically. Never saw this behaviour before.

If I turn on/off in domoticz/nora it works in both ways (on the web and physically)

Any clue why this happens and how I can sort it out?

Tks much!
Henry

Hello @henrybcn,

You said the following:

How do you switch your pool device?

This looks as a MQTT (not) loop issue.

Regards

hi FireWizard,
I can turn on/off with domoticz or NORA and it works perfectly! But when I use google mini (voice), something gets stuck as the switch in domoticz turn on, but the light does not. Any clue how I can troubleshoot?
Tks!

Hello @henrybcn,

I asked:

This looks like a MQTT loop issue.

If you operate the switch in Domoticz, what is supposed to happen? Do you send a MQTT command to some device, that should switch physically your pool device? If it is a MQTT command, you should set this setting "Prevent Loop" to "False".

Have a look at your settings:
