I don't see the "0a" termination character in your Nextion code. And value 1 should be formatted as sOn.

For example, to send idx = 77 and value = 1 the Nextion code would be written using two statements as follows:

Code: Select all

print "|s,i77,sOn" // Send idx 77 and boolean value 1 to ESPEasy
printh 0a          // Required print termination character

Great, ESPEasy is now correctly receiving the data from Nextion.

but the switch does not go on ...... it sends only the signal for Off

The value is changing to "1" so that is what can be sent to the controller. To send this data to a controller you can either (1) use the optional controller settings in the Nextion Plugin or (2) use ESPEasy rules (which typically allows more control on the data format of what is sent).

Sorry I can't help further -- I don't use Domoticz so I can't offer advice on it. Hopefully a Domoticz user will chime in and help you out.
