Switch2 status and restart

[Max]

Hello to everyone.

I'm new on tasmota, I love it... but as newby I start to have some problem.

I've flashed a Wemos D1R2 with Tasmosta 8.4.0. It works well but I have some issus that I'm not able to solve.

I use for my first project a water level sensor connect to the GPI04 (D2).

I can see very well all the status change on console and also on my MQTT Server.

But...

1) When I check the status with the command "Status 8" the answer is the opposite of the configuration, it answer like

     switch1 and not like Switch2, so if the circuit is close I receive a OFF on the switch but ON on the status and the opposite

     when the level sensor is open

2) When the WeMos restarts (after loosing power) it doesn't send the last status in  "stat/BilgeSensor/RESULT" I have to wait

     that the sensor has a change of status, that's why I would like to send to the Wemos a "Status 8" and check the current status.

I already tried to found this solution here, so I hope this is not another duplicate post.

Thanks

Max

ESP8266 GPIO inputs generally go LOW (from Vcc to 0v) for ON. If your device has a NC contact you need to connect a 4k7 resistor from Vcc to the GPIO and connect your contact from the GPIO to Vcc.  Alternatively you can use a SwitchXi input but you are better to use the pullup resistor.

To get an update on restart you can use an on boot rule.

on system#boot do status 8 end

Hi Philip,

Thanks for you answer. 

I confirm that I do have the resistor and I already check the status 8. 

I have other problem. 

The answer from Status 8 is wrong is the opposite of my real status.

You need to use the SwiychXi then which will invert the input

Ok,

I have no idea what it is but I will Google it. 

Thanks

My mistake, forgot that there isn’t an inverted switch. You need to connect the resistor between the GPIO and 0V and the switch between Vcc and the GPIO to get the functionality correct.

Hi Phil,

the connections are already as you describe.

Here in the picture and in attach the console logging.

As you can see the switch already works as inverted.

No problem at all, the problem is only in the status 8 that is not inverted.

Can you take a screenshot of the configuration page? I suspect I know what the issue is.
