Configuring OpenBeken on Currysmarter Switch (2 gang) for MQTT Messaging and Relay Control

Hi, as a heavy tasmota user I recently discovered openbeken to be flashed on CBUs to gain mqtt features.

I am using nodered mqtt to realize my complete home Automation. I have a currysmarter 2 gang touch switch flashed successfully and created the pin setup as well. Works great.

Now, I want the two buttons to NOT control the relay but send a mqtt message only. Additionally, I want the relays to be controlled via incoming mqtt message. Well, like I can do with tasmota.

Ideally, I can also modify the mqtt topics, so I can be completely compatible with my tasmota devices (cmnd/... & stat/... & tele/...) .

Any hint is well appreciated

Set the button roles to Btn_ScriptOnly so they don't have automatic interactions and then use event handlers.
Search for "On3Click " in our docs page:

When you get such event working, you can invoke any command there. For example, SendGET or publish:

Check out "SendGet" and "Publish" commands in the docs page above.

>>21209637 Thank you, that was very helpful. Still, the button is triggering the relays. Here is what I added:



any idea how I can avoid triggering the relay? When I hear it correctly, the relay gets activated and then immediately deactivated again (sounds like a double click sound).

You are still using Btn role, which has automatic interactions with relays. If you do not want to trigger automatically anything, you need to use Btn_ScriptOnly role.

See roles doc:
