HA-Sensor Shows 0 degrees in frontend of ESPHome "IR Remote Climate"-Card

ESPHome
1

Hi,

I have set up a working IR-transmitter using a ESP Wrover Kit, running Arduino Latest.
As shown in the Documentation I can import sensor data, from HA in my code to let it show ambient temperature in the climate card of this entity, but no matter what I do, it will only show 0 degrees - which is annoying.
In logs the sensor data I am interested in shows up as it should.

Here’s my code:

  pin: 33
  carrier_duty_percent: 50%

sensor:
  - platform: homeassistant
    id: temperatur_stue
    entity_id: sensor.atc_43f8_temperature
    unit_of_measurement: "°C"
    device_class: "temperature"
    state_class: "measurement"
    accuracy_decimals: 1

climate:
  - platform: mitsubishi
    name: "Varmepumpe"
    set_fan_mode: "quiet_4levels"
    supports_dry: "true"
    supports_fan_only: "true"
    horizontal_default: "left"
    vertical_default: "down"
    sensor: temperatur_stue

Any Ideas?

could you please check in ha template tool that this returns a numeric value

{{states("sensor.atc_43f8_temperature")}}

Look for “result type”

4

I’m guessing here but try adding internal: false to your config.

Maybe it’s not getting re-exported somehow due to the default behaviour of imported ha sensors.

5

It returns a plain:
23.06

Earlier I tried without specifying anything about sensore type etc. YAML, nothing worked.

6

I will try compiling and test now.
Didn’t work, but it is still reporting correct value in Log

Look for the words “result type”

Insert this into mitsubishi.cpp on line 55 fixed this for me:

  traits.set_supports_current_temperature(this->sensor_ != nullptr);

Hi
I`venalso tried zu set up an ir climate remote for my Mitsubishi SRK35ZS with ESPHome. I used an esp wroom 32 and an IR transmitter for this with this code

remote_transmitter:
  pin: GPIO017
  carrier_duty_percent: 50%


climate:
  - platform: mitsubishi
    name: "Klimaanlage Schlafzimmer"
    set_fan_mode: "quiet_4levels"
    supports_dry: "true"
    supports_fan_only: "true"
    horizontal_default: "middle"
    vertical_default: "up"

It showed up in HomeAssistant with all the options i needed

The problem is, that the AC did not react to anything i set via Homessistant.
Does anyone has an idea, where my problem is?
