Trying to setup MQTT door bell

Hi all,

Need a little help with getting my doorbell to work with HA.

This is what’s being sent into MQTT when I press the doorbell

After some searching on the internet, I found this script -

binary_sensor:
  - platform: mqtt
    name: doorbell
    state_topic: "rflink/Aster-00f4"
    payload_on: "ON"
    payload_off: "OFF"
    qos: 2

I have added this to an entity card but I don’t see any change when the button is pressed. I don’t ever see an OFF status in MQTT so I have a feeling I might need a different method.

The doorbell is 433mhz and being sent to MQTT via rflink

also, what is QoS for?
