Hi, I would like to have up & down icons to put my AC fan speed up & down. Each as it’s own glance icon in the front end.
The speeds that the AC (Mitsubishi) are; minimum, low, medium-low, medium-high, high, auto. I am using @scotty ’s Echonet component to integrate with climate; climate.mitsubishi_lounge
Originally I was thinking of having the up arrow have lots of conditional entries and pending what speed it is currently then it goes to the next speed. Likewise the down arrow to do the same but opposite. However, I am not sure if this is the best way and if I am complicating it too much?

@123 do you think it would be an idea to set each speed as per your example in this .
Ie. Minimum = 1, low = 2, medium-low = 3, medium-high = 4, high = 5

The linked post shows how to use a dictionary to simplify an existing template. I don’t know how you intend to apply that to your application. Post some code and we’ll see what can be done.

@123 This is what I have so far… It is currently all being controlled in lovelace

It feels very convoluted though, I am sure there must be a better way

For those that may stumble upon this, I am trying to achieve an up & down glance style button to make my AC go lower/higher. My method was using conditional cards to do this and I couldn’t work out how to have glance buttons next to them without making the entire row for every circumstance. So, it has ended up being quite a lot of yaml code in lovelace. There is essentially two lots of conditional rows for every speed situation. Here is my current code so you can get an idea.

Of course I am sure there must be an easier/cleaner way of doing this, but, this is what I have for the time being…
