I need some assistance to get more familiar with automation of my heating valves TS0601.
Given Environment and Goals
On the basement, I do have an open kitchen (living room and kitchen are same room).
Both have an radiator with TS0601 installed.
I would like to use Lovelace with simple-thermostat (GitHub - nervetattoo/simple-thermostat: A different take on the thermostat card for Home Assistant ♨️) to manage.
But I don’t want to manage them one by one, but both together.
Means, if temperature-sensor reach a given range, it should set both valves to on or off.
Questions
I wonder what the right way is to manage those valves. If I look into Zigbee2MQTT, I see this state for one of the valves:

Am I right, that all those “weekday-settings” only applicable if I set the valve hvac_mode
to auto
?
Should I use this weekday settings in any way, or should I implement it in HA?
For HA-Implementation I don’t yet really know how exactly I should do it. I would guess something like:
- only use the valves in mode
head
andoff
- create an automation that checks a sensor for a temperature and
- if it reach a given value toggle the valve between
heat
andoff
?
