    @Tim76 ok, let's go back to the beginning. Try with one sensors only, if everything works then add one relay, then add the second and keep adding the sensors until you see something wrong. You need to go step by step, otherwise with all that stuff you have it will be impossible to debug.

    @gohan both sketches work perfectly stand alone.... but I think the problem lies within the assingment of the child id's...
    James Bruce talks about this "bug" in his video on how to combine sketches.....
    They relay sketch assigns from 1 to 16
    And the temp sketch assigns from 0 to 15
    So they both try to use the same id's for their children when you try to combine them....
    I need a way to get around that and have relays on 1-16 and temp on 17 to 32......
    Or there might just be the same "bug" in the temperature sketch.....😬😬 wich might mean that they can't be combined for now......😒😒

      if use something like this in presentation?

      for (int i=1; i<numSensors && i<MAX_ATTACHED_DS18B20; i++) {   
           present(i+3, S_TEMP);
      

      you get the idea, just shift the child id of the dallas sensors and leave the first 4-5 IDs for relays

          @gohan soooooo...... I tried this:

          void presentation() {
            // Send the sketch version information to the gateway and Controller
            sendSketchInfo("Temperature Sensor", "1.1");
          
            // Fetch the number of attached temperature sensors  
            numSensors = sensors.getDeviceCount();
          
            // Present all sensors to controller
            for (int i=1; i<numSensors && i<MAX_ATTACHED_DS18B20; i++) {   
               present(i+16, S_TEMP);
            }
            for (int sensor=1, pin=RELAY_1; sensor<=NUMBER_OF_RELAYS; sensor++, pin++) {
              // Then set relay pins in output mode
              pinMode(pin, OUTPUT);
              // Set relay to last known state (using eeprom storage)
              digitalWrite(pin, loadState(sensor)?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF);
            }
          }
          
          

          now I get the temp sensors with child id's 1 to 16 and no relays at all

                        you only have present(i, S_TEMP) but you also need to add present(sensor, S_BINARY) in the relay section otherwise you will not present any relay at all.

                            so it seems I do get temp Id's from 17 to 32, but the values stay in 0,1,2 where the relays 1 and 2 don't work.....

                              There must be a bug in the relay section, I can't check it today, I'm out all day.
                              Try to add some debug serial print to see what values are being exchanged

                                  I'm talking about adding code to your sketch so that it prints in serial monitor the values before they are sent for presentations and you debug from those, I can't debug it for you from here 😀

                                      No problem, it's normal, everybody started from being new at coding.
                                      For debugging add only 1 or 2 temp sensors and same for relays, work it out simple and then add more
