MQTT Start

Overview

The MQTT Start Node.

The MQTT Start Node starts a MQTT connection that has already been set up in Project Settings.

It is important to note that while the MQTT Start Node starts an MQTT connection, it may not completely finish establishing said connection when the Node is executed. This could lead to the Logic attached to its Output Pulse to not work even though there is technically nothing wrong. In order to avoid this, it is highly suggested to use the On MQTT Start Node instead. This way, the Logic will only execute once the MQTT connection has definitely been established.

Again, the user must first use the MQTT Start Node to open the connection. Separately, the On MQTT Start Node can be used to execute the desired Communication Logic.
