Clarification on the guide /mqtt/client about mpower-tools

[udo1toni]

If you are using openHAB2.5.4, you're probably using the mqtt2 binding. My complete mfi thing (6ch):

     Thing topic mFi "mFi" @ "mqtt" {
          Type number : ch1Power "Leistung" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port1/power" ]
          Type number : ch1Volt  "Spannung" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port1/voltage" ]
          Type number : ch1Energy  "Energy" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port1/energy" ]

          Type number : ch2Power "Leistung" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port2/power" ]
          Type number : ch2Volt  "Spannung" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port2/voltage" ]
          Type number : ch2Energy  "Energy" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port2/energy" ]

          Type number : ch3Power "Leistung" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port3/power" ]
          Type number : ch3Volt  "Spannung" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port3/voltage" ]
          Type number : ch3Energy  "Energy" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port3/energy" ]

          Type number : ch4Power "Leistung" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port4/power" ]
          Type number : ch4Volt  "Spannung" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port4/voltage" ]
          Type number : ch4Energy  "Energy" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port4/energy" ]

          Type number : ch5Power "Leistung" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port5/power" ]
          Type number : ch5Volt  "Spannung" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port5/voltage" ]
          Type number : ch5Energy  "Energy" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port5/energy" ]

          Type number : ch6Power "Leistung" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port6/power" ]
          Type number : ch6Volt  "Spannung" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port6/voltage" ]
          Type number : ch6Energy  "Energy" [ stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port6/energy" ]
      }

As I don't want to switch the sockets at all, I' did'nt create switch channels, but that would be

Type switch : ch1Switch "Schalter" [ commandTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port1/relay/set", stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port1/relay",on="1",off="0" ]
Type switch : ch1Lock "Sperre" [ commandTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port1/lock/set", stateTopic="homie/Steckdosen/port1/lock",on="1",off="0" ]

The lock is to disable switching at all. I have set this to ON to prevent unwanted poweroff for connected devices (as these are my servers... I'm using the mfi only for measurement)

Hi
thanks for your reply.
I tried to copy your configuration on the folder things of openhab 2.5.4 but when i have entered in openhab GUI via web browser i didn't found your configuration. Anyway I set the mqtt binding and mqtt broker first but i don't know how to go on because , as I told you, the folder of your "things" didn't appear.
In the end I also installed openhab 3.0 but the result is the same.
May you help me with Openhab and mpower configurations with a teamwiever session?
Obviously I'm going to pay for your disturb.
If you are interest send me an email on [email protected]
or write me via telegram looking for @root_toor

Maybe better to change to the official openHAB community: https://community.openhab.org/ mpower is not that special ;) in the end it's just another mqtt device.
