This thing is ghost triggering like crazy.
Need to recheck the wiring that it isnt shorting. Or could be something in tasmota?
are you feeding power from another circuit into the GPIO5? is there voltage on that button? measure it

No it's 2 buttons on the BPT intercom.
There's nothing else connected to the 2 buttons.
Nothing has happened since I posted so let's hope it was some fluke.

Try setting another GPIO that isn’t in use to Relay2(22) and see if it stops doing it.
Also as it’s a button you main need to set up its type as not being toggle etc but I’m not sure about that never needed it before.

Toggle shouldn't make a difference. I set gpio5 to buttons(20)Try setting another GPIO that isn’t in use to Relay2(22) and see if it stops doing it.

Setting ButtonTopic disassociates from any power trigger. EG resetting the device or toggling a relay.
Isnt relay 22 used to control the gate open and close?

There was a weird bug (design thing) that related to ghost triggering but I don’t exactly remember why.
But no the relay is already programmed into the default configuration, so you’ll just have a second relay showing up on the main screen.

I set ButtonTopic3 bell And it seems to be fine now, no weird triggering. Put a padlock on incase it triggers during the night.
But in console, don't see anything happening

Hey guys, I'm keen to get into Arduino/Raspberry Pi automation and microcontroller programming (hope that's what it's called..!). Any good starter kits? My goal is to learn some C (am currently a systems dev) and automate some aspect of my home as a lockdown project. Budget R500-R1000.
Hope this is the right thread...

i know it was brought up, but I do not recall an outcome - has anyone managed to monitor the status of the gpio on an sv for some application without an HA integration? i.e like stand alone?

Tasmota outputs to its own HTTP server so I’m sure you would be able to query it without HA.

That might work, but I was more keen on like an ewelink type vibe

Can’t help there, simply assumed the thing does that by default.

bumping this - anyone come up with an elegant solution to using a basic/sv to trigger and monitor status without using some sort of "physical" hub like HA etc. i.e something stand alone.
I have one of these "Mi Bluetooth Temperature & Humidity Monitor" devices - never really had a use case for it until now.
I'd like to get the information into HA - the device is going to be installed next to a fireplace, in the same room I have a Raspberry Pi running OSMC.
Would it be possible to install something on the OSMC system that leverages off the PI's bluetooth - picks up the data, and publishes to HA?

Xiaomi Mijia bluetooth temperature & humidity sensor compatibility

Thanks - working with a bit of hassle on OSMC - still have to see if it survives an OSMC restart. The linked script gives a syntax error - I'm asusming it has something to do with the retrieval of the battery level - not going to hassle over it for now.

I have the same sensor and it does not seem to broadcast the battery level even though it's documented here
