Hi all,

I am new to everything relating to MQTT and i believe i am having some issues with my MQTT Transmission.

I am sending the value packet from my tags and i can read them however i am also send out a .props from my tags as well which comes back as undefined, probably because of how i have set up my broker.

(PLC/Area\_A/Count1) (PLC/Area\_A/Count1.props)

We have no need for any other data except for the value, how do i stop sending out the .props packets?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Show your transmission configuration. You should just be defining a folder to send, and then all the tags in it would be sent.

I sorted it out, it was a issue with the SQL code i have in my broker. Thank you very much
