What is the reason for this?

After reboot al larger list was coming up but also not complete.

At least the paths I was searching for where not in the list.

Where can I find these paths?

Dbus path: **/Relay/0/State**

Dbus path: **/Ac/ActiveIn/ActiveInput**

Not sure if this is the issue, but when I had that problem, it was because under “Advanced” I had not subscribed correctly to my unit. I had to add:

”N/xxxxxxxxxxxx/#”

This did it for me.

No not realy.

Looking for something like this : N/{DeviceId}/grid/40/Ac/Power

N/{DeviceId}/ **Relay/0/State** doesn’t work

Just switched off and back on MQTT in the settings and then the list showed up again but missing the paths I search in the list. Seems me not complete.

Working on the latest Beta firmware but i don’t think that is the cause as nowbody else mentioned this yet.

Sid you send ”keepalive” ? Without this, no ale topics are visible.

Ok thx found it

 ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/victron/original/3X/3/b/3b71bd3bce076d1c1b00fc599e6ff5b91e1616b0.png)

BUT can’t find a path ActiveIn : wich gives me the state if grid is active.

Any idea what the path name should be?

Well, Im offgrid with generator autostart. So no GRID in MPs selected. BUT you definetly can use LED status 🙂

Led in indeed option but found another one :

/vebus/276/Devices/2/ExtendStatus/AcIn1Available

I think this is the one I was looking for (led shall be processed out off this data).

Thanks for the help!

I was happy to help. Just be careful if you use “ignore AC in flag”. Then “AC1 in avilable” is available but the grid is not used.
