I am sure I am doing something wrong, I just don’t know what, I tried to search but couldn’t find anything prob bec its so simple. I have a generic thermostat that I want to be able to use in heat and in cool mode. I can change in the config file ac_mode: true
and restart and it will work in ac mode. But no matter what I try I cannot get it to have a way to set the mode from the thermostat card like it does in this picture:
What am I doing wrong? Here is my config:
climate:
- platform: generic_thermostat
name: Living Room
heater: switch.livingroom
target_sensor: sensor.livingroom_am2301_temperature
min_temp: 50
max_temp: 85
# ac_mode: true
cold_tolerance: 0.3
hot_tolerance: 0
min_cycle_duration:
minutes: 5
keep_alive:
minutes: 3
initial_hvac_mode: "off"
away_temp: 75
precision: 0.1
and my lovelace card:
- type: thermostat
entity: climate.living_room
