Hello I recently bought an MC8-FC and connected to my zawve network through Home Assistant.
I can control Cool/Heat/Fan mode, Fan Speed and set target temprature for cooling mode.
But i cannot set target temprature for Heating mode.
Has anyone else tried this product?
Hi Kostas,
I am thinking to buy the same MC8-FC. Did you find a solution to set the temperature for the heating mode? And what is your experience with the thermostat?
Thanks,
Aldert
Hello,

Thanks a lot for your reply and sorry for my late reply. In the meantime I have also added some setting items to it, so you can set how much the device will report temp changes, etc. I used my floor heating MCO thermostat to add this.
Do you know where the original XML of a Z wave device is stored? Is that in the device itself and will it be loaded to home assistant when it is included? I am surprised that for this MH8 thermostat it has so many mistakes.

Hi,
I think it’s downloaded from openzwave library.
hi,
i’m looking for a fan coil thermostat. one option was the heltun one, but the news about cancelling the “working with HA” doesn’t sound good. that leads me to the mco home thermostat. does it “work ot of the box” or is there still manual hacks to do to make it useable?
thanks.
