I am running into a wall with a project I am working on. I am trying to use MQTT/smartthings-mqtt-bridge to set the state of a virtual contact sensor.
Is the command ‘contact’ read-only?
I have a real contact sensor, it reports as
contact:closed
contact:open
When i try to issue either command to a virtual contact sensor, it never changes. The smartthings sample one has a open/closed press action, but trying to set it via MQTT never changes the state.
Is there something I am missing, or does ST not allow this?
my log looks like this:
Received device event from bridge: [name:Office Window, value:close, command:true, type:contact]
