Hi all, I have an Aidoo Z‑Wave Plus module to control my Daikin Sky Air air conditioning units. I was able to include the module without issues and apart from the issue I’ll mention below, they have been working well.
The AC units have 6 operation modes: heat, cool, fan, dry, auto (heat_cool), and off. However, for some reason, the ‘fan’ and ‘dry’ operation modes are not properly reported in Home Assistant as ‘hvac_modes’, but as ‘preset_modes’ instead, and this causes issues with the frontend cards as they are not shown, and also weird behaviors when I change the operation mode from the physical wall controller.
These are the attributes I can see from the Development > States page:
hvac_modes:
- 'off'
- heat
- cool
- heat_cool
min_temp: 7
max_temp: 35
fan_modes:
- Low
- High
- Auto medium
- Medium
preset_modes:
- none
- Fan
- Dry
current_temperature: 26.9
temperature: 23
target_temp_high: null
target_temp_low: null
fan_mode: Medium
preset_mode: none
icon: mdi:snowflake
friendly_name: Upstairs Air Conditioner
supported_features: 27
I also re-interviewed the Z-Wave node and captured the following logs:

The node seems to be reporting the modes correctly…
Does anybody have any idea why ‘dry’ and ‘fan’ are configured as ‘preset_modes’ instead of ‘hvac_modes’? Happy to share more details if needed.
Thank you!
