Thanks for the response. Can you be more specific about how to request the status from the node?
My understanding is the request format is:
request (Child_ID, VariableType);
But if the Home Assistant entity that I want to request the status of is not a MySensors entity it will not have a Child_ID. So how do I format the request statement?
Hi, friend!
He also became interested in the Home Assistant system, but was upset by the lack of support OTA.
I use a system Majordomo for MySensors devices and my Ethernet-RS485 gateways are based on ENC28J60.
And I found such an idea for myself - to implement a proxy for the TCP protocol in order to implement a parallel connection to the gateway of two systems at the same time.
I tested this solution and it turned out to work - I was able to flash via OTA , while simultaneously receiving data in Home Assistant.
Perhaps this idea will be of interest to you.
@Multimax do you send initial states for all children for this multi relay node? HA won't show anything that hasn't sent initial data to show.

I have encountered the same situation trying to use a switch to control some blinds.
Has there been any update on this issue from either Home Assistant or MySensors, or any workaround developed?
