Hi @all, I flashed OpenBK7231N on a BSEED Smart Wifi Switch 3-Gang (EC-GL86PCSI31) and I want to use it, like my other Smart Plugs/Switches (Tasmota) without MQTT. Is it possible to use Driver SSDP and Driver WeMo with a friendly name for each Channel (like with Tasmota)? BR Vargur AI: Which...

It seems Wemo driver needs to be updated to use channel label if present. Here's the driver: We would need to check where exactly their XML specified the channel name? Then we could use Channel_GetLabel to supply the strings set by setChannelLabel

Hi,Thanks for the information and help, but in the meanwhile I solved it with MQTT and Home Assistant

Hi @All,

I flashed OpenBK7231N on a BSEED Smart Wifi Switch 3-Gang (EC-GL86PCSI31) and I want to use it, like my other Smart Plugs/Switches (Tasmota) without MQTT.

Is it possible to use Driver SSDP and Driver WeMo with a friendly name for each Channel (like with Tasmota)?

AI: Which version or build of OpenBK7231N are you currently running on your BSEED switch?
OpenBK7231N version 1.18.102
AI: Have you already tried configuring the SSDP or WeMo drivers and setting friendly names for each channel? If so, could you describe what you’ve tried and any issues you ran into?
I started driver SSDP and WeMo but I can't figure out, how to create or change the friendly name for each channel. I always only find one channel with Alexa

It seems Wemo driver needs to be updated to use channel label if present.
Here's the driver:
https://github.com/openshwprojects/OpenBK7231T_App/blob/main/src/driver/drv_wemo.c
We would need to check where exactly their XML specified the channel name?

Then we could use Channel_GetLabel to supply the strings set by setChannelLabel

I am creating multiplatform open source firmware (Tasmota replacement), right now supporting BK7231T, BK7231N, XR809, BL602, W800, W600, LN882H and soon supporting RTL and W701:
