KNX climate (MDT AKH 0800.002) symbol meaning

Configuration

Hello,

I searched my way through the forum, but I didn’t find an answer yet.
I’m having a MDT AKH 0800.002 heating actuator.

My config for a knx climate card is as follows:

knx:
  climate:
    - name: "Bathroom"
      temperature_address: "3/1/22"
      target_temperature_address: "3/1/21"
      target_temperature_state_address: "3/1/21"
      temperature_step: 0.5
      command_value_state_address: "3/1/20"
      operation_mode_address: "3/1/9"
      operation_mode_state_address: "3/1/5"
      min_temp: 15.0
      max_temp: 23.0

ETS Config (see image).

Basically this works fine so far. My question is, what’s the (kind of) ‘away’ symbol in the climate card? What is it representing and is there any chance I can control it? I didn’t find any documentation, browsed a bit through the code, but didn’t get any wiser.

Combine image of ETS config and ‘symbol’:

Any response appreciated.

I think this icon represents a gauge.
On my instance there is a thermometer icon. No idea why this is different for you though.

That’s interesting…
Do you also have a MDT AKH 0800.002 for any chance?
Could you maybe post your YAML so I compare once more?

Thanks in advance.

No, I don’t have that device.
My configuration uses default temperatue_step and has heat_cool state… I don’t think that makes a difference for UI.

Thanks so much for your reply though - this made me understand a bit more:

I selected “Show current temperature as primary information” - this makes the ‘gauge’ (? is it really?) symbol appear. When I deselect this switch, then I get the thermometer symbol. I think I understand that now:

  • Thermometer: current temperature is shown next to it.
  • ‘Other symbol’: setpoint is shown next to it.
    I wanted to show the current temperature as ‘primary information’ as that’s more relevant for me…
