Hey,
i need help with the generic_thermostat.
I have a circulationpump which can be turns on with a switch. So i set up this in the climate section.
My understanding is that the thermostat turns on the switch when the temperature is to low and turns it of when it reaches the target temperature.
In the UI i used the Standard and after that the Better Thermostat. But the state is idle and the pump isn’t turned on.
so what do i do wrong or is it not possible to control switches with that.
Thanks a lot in advanced
Lynn

When u post the config do so in code tags and not a screenshot, it helps looking for format errors and such. Anyway, in this case it looks like the sensor.kuche_temperatur
is not giving a value.
If you look at the sensor in the developer tools, what does it say?
The thermostat should report actual temp and not be empty:

Code tage are done with the preformatted text button </> press it (or Ctrl-e) and it will show up
Post your config in it.

As you see i changed the sensor to sensor.bad
Now it worked. Hm.
So i changed it back to the sensor.kuche_temperatur and now it works also.
Thanks a lot
