Hello.
With the latest hassio updates (v. 0.96.x) the icons have been re-arranged.
Is it possible to make customed arrangements and for example make the on/off icon appear first on the left and not far right as it appears now?
Hi. Yes, it is.
Call the climate.set_temperature with the desired temperature and hvac mode.

After update the lastest version Smartir (1.7.0) I canāt use climate(Hass 0.96.3). Does anyone same issue?
Since the update to HA 0.96.x, Iām no longer able to in HomeKit use the Auto option on both my A/C units. Everything works fine in the HA interface, but I canāt use Siri to turn on my A/C units to auto mode.
This was working perfectly fine before hand? Am I missing something?

Dear, I worked today with your codes,
I found some were missing,
I would like to know one thing about how to write a script if I want to send packet 2 times,
Since some commands are same for all ch stereo and stereo, but needs to send it 2times.
Can u please guide?
Thanks in adv

I find that I have to press buttons a few times before it will actually send the IR command, anybody else have this?
For example, on a thermostat card, Iām press off, but it stays on, pursuing off 3 more times and then the AC beeps and turns off

I have noticed after updating to 0.96 and SmartIR 1.7, I no longer get a history of the status or the hvac unit ?
Previously it would show green blocks for the duration of the units run time.
Is this a SmartIR issue, or a HA 0.96 climate component issue ?
I couldnt find anything specifically related to this in the issue tracker anywhere - has anyone else seen this behaviour ?

I have also noticed this
My A/C only has a UP and DOWN button for the temperature. I donāt know how to translate that to the temperature (ā18,19,20,21ā¦ā) codes for the JSON file.
Iām guessing that a lot of A/C are like this, so there must be a way 
Without having individual codes, how do you know what temperature it is actually set at? HA would have this issue, but then so would you?
If the remote has a readout with the temp, how does it know that it is actually correct and not in sync with the unit?
The modes and temperature is shown on the A/C itself. So itās true that HA is blind about that.
For the moment, I am using a script that send DOWN signals 10 times to be sure I am at the lowest setting (19) and write that value to an input_number.
From there, I have a UP/DOWN scripts that sends the command to the A/C and update the input_number that will reflect the temp set on the ac.
I thought that SmartIR would get me away from those scripts and get me a cleaner integration. Maybe Iām stuck with scripts
Arenāt the modes and temp displayed on the remote control? What is your unit model?
Itās a small window type A/C.

You can see the remote there
Iām afraid that SmartIR is not suitable for your AC unit.
Yeah, thatās what Iām realizing. But still great work you did there !
Having a āClimate Templateā similar to the āFan Templateā, would make me able to do what I want I guess.
Maybe I should start a feature request for itā¦
does anyone have the problem that they get multiple copies of the smartir climate entity in google home and when you change the name of the climate smartir entity in home assistant configuration file then the name of the entity in the stastes page doesnāt change to the new name after a restart?
Is a unique_id exists in your configuration? If yes then rename the entity by pressing the gear in details card.
actually the problem is with google not your component.
I found a fault with the interaction between your component and google smart home hub when the heat pump is set to āonā ie, it is triggered by the external remote and āpower_sensorā.
Google thinks my heatpump has 3 modes āheat / cool / offā
If the heatpump is currently on and i turn it off with my old flashioned remote control, it is happy and updates the status to off.
If the heatpump is off, and I turn it on with my old fashioned remote, then home assistant changes the mode to āonā, but google home gets confused because it doesnāt support āonā mode. On the hub, it has none of the check boxes ticked and it wont allow you to interact with the heatpump, on the app it shows āother modeā and wont let you interact with the heatpump.
climate:
- platform: smartir
name: Aircon
unique_id: aircon
device_code: 1020
controller_data: 192.168.1.18
temperature_sensor: sensor.lounge_temperature
humidity_sensor: sensor.lounge_humidity
power_sensor: binary_sensor.aircon_status
google_assistant:
project_id: [redacted]
api_key: [redacted]
expose_by_default: false
entity_config:
# HEAT PUMP
climate.aircon:
name: Heat Pump
expose: true
room: Lounge
Iām not sure of the best way around this.
You could create an āonā mode for google, and specify a ādefaultā mode in the yaml. If the aircon is āonā and you adjust the temperature then it changes the aircon to the ādefault modeā and the temperature you selected, ie. it jumps out of the āonā mode.
The default mode could be static, or it could be seasonally adjusted.
If needed I can supply screenshots for you of the problem.
