Homekit switch show active when Vacuum is on

[sushenmathur]

Hi,
I have a Dreame L10 Pro (dreame.vacuum,p2029)
I have a action button in homekit for start clean which is displayed as a switch, but the switch state turn to false when the vaccum starts.
Can i create a action button/property control to display the swictch state as true when the vaccumm is running and turn to false when its stops and charging?

Thanks in advance for your help

The action switches are stateless buttons, meaning they do not have a state and turn themselves immediately off. This is due to the fact that actions in the miot protocol do not have a state.
But you already have the main vacuum switch which should turn on as soon as you start the vacuum no matter from where the start command came.

Thanks @merdok
I dont see a main swiitch in jomekit, just the action buttons that I've added in the config.
Do i need to do any thing else to get the main switch

Huh? I am pretty certain there should be one which is called the same name as you named your accessory in homebridge. There should also be a presence sensor. Did you maybe set your device to a customAccessory? That would indeed remove all default items.

Oh yes looks like that was the issue the my custom accessory was set to true. Changed it now and I see a switch for the vacuum.
Thanks heaps
