    Device configuration, as extracted from Tuya:
    - BL0937 SEL on P8
    - Button (channel 1) on P26
    - BL0937 VI (CF1) on P7
    - WiFi LED on P10
    - BL0937 ELE (CF) on P6
    - Relay (channel 1) on P24
    Device seems to be using CB2S module, which is using BK7231N.
    And the Tuya section starts, as usual, at 2023424

    Did you calibrate the plug (on the "Tools" page of Web App)?
    Are the values slightly changing?

    Yeah, I did. Also I rechecked the solder points to see if it's OK and is!

    Is it possible the app extracted the wrong points?

    Added after 3 [minutes]:

    There's no BL0937SEL_i? I find some in Tasmota inverted.

    If it's inverted, in OBK it's "_n" so maybe BL0937SEL_n for you?

    File list with BL0937SEL_n highlighted

    In that case, if I got it right, voltage and current would be exchanged.

    But missing power values are strange, even in this case, I would expect some "unexpected" values, but "0"?!?

    Yeah, that's weird. ;-(

    Thinking about it, probably CF pin is not correct (or connection is broken), this pin will read BL0937's power, while CF1 reads current/voltage, depending on SEL value.

    That's weird
    I just leave the rel and btn (I know both are working)

    If you don't stop the driver (ore restart), it will continue.
    IIRC only if you change the pins for the chip, the driver will use the new pins. If you "delete" them, it will continue with the old pin assignment.

    Also I cleared all in gpio doctos

    And still

    It's weird, right?

    But you stopped the driver or restarted after clearing the pins?

    I'm trying to check the pinout from bl0973

    to the CB2S pin, just gnd and 3.3 Its connect, the cf cf1 and sel the multimeter dont beep. omg;;;

    At least CF1 should be right, since you get some readings and SEL for the values seem "o.k.".
    I can force the same here by assigning CF to a wrong pin (and, sorry, seems I was wrong, I restarted the plug after changing the pin assignment)

    I set same voltage and current just to check if var its looks like same and I get 27.30 too ;-)

    I can set all pins no selected to CF? its should work?

    Added after 6 [minutes]:

    dumb questions, theres I way if I return to the original firware to recheck it?

    You need to set all three related pis in order to automatically start the bl0937 driver.

    Since you did a backup you should be able to flash it back (but sadly I think only via UART, not with OTA).

    I just resolder 3 times, with the micorsope.
    I take out, clean, and resolder again.
    now its working.

    sorry man,

    Sorry misread the question: That would not help, the driver will only take one (the first, if I'm not mistaken).
    Or it would help, if you later start to clear them one by one (and reboot) until the correct one is found...

    Don't worry, glad to hear it's working, so I expect the extracted pin was correct?

    almost
    I get the correct power, and after 1 second, wrong, its back to correnct and back to wrong.

    Only power, current and voltage o.k.?
    Did you enable powersave? That doesn't work well together with BL0973.
    Else I'm running out of ideas, if connection now is fine...

    I did a jump from the bl0973 and cb2s, its ok now, something is wrong with the pcb ;-(

Topic summary

The discussion addresses issues extracting and verifying the correct pinout configuration from the firmware of the NOVADIGITAL Wall Power Outlet model CB2S with BK7231N chip. The user extracted a JSON configuration but encountered incorrect or missing pin assignments, particularly related to the BL0937 energy metering IC pins such as SEL, CF, and CF1. Troubleshooting involved checking solder joints, verifying pin continuity with a multimeter, and testing different pin assignments including inverted signals (e.g., BL0937SEL_n). It was noted that the BL0937 driver requires all related pins correctly assigned and the device restarted to apply changes. The user eventually identified a faulty PCB connection affecting the CF pin, resolved by creating a jumper wire between BL0973 and CB2S pins, restoring accurate power, voltage, and current readings. The discussion highlights the importance of correct pin mapping, driver restart after configuration changes, and hardware verification for reliable energy metering on this device.
