Could you please explain what you are doing to trigger the error?
Are you sure that it isn’t an old automation from before
https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2019/07/17/release-96/#climate that is causing the error?
You do know that auto have been removed in July. It is now called heat_cold.
I setup a fresh install on a RPi and added the Daikin integration. I don’t get the error anymore but the heat_cool option still doesn’t work. If I press the heat_cool option the aircon doesn’t change, logs below.

It is my understanding that the Airbase units does not support ‘auto’. Is that correct @jurgenweber @Borgy @Sam_Bonsing? It is at least not supported in the pydaikin library https://bitbucket.org/mustang51/pydaikin/src/534c78e4e8c0fc0b4b244be645279cd91ee2e3a5/pydaikin/appliance.py#lines-92.
We (I) probably need to change the code in home-assistant to indicate that…
Yeah pretty sure auto (heat/cool) was not a valid mode during our testing/setup per
http://daikinip/skyfi/aircon/get_control_info?lpw=’ returns current information from the controller
My controller has a mode button that rotates thru the following states
Here are my results:

Thus mode:
0 = Fan
1 = Heat
2 = Cool
3 = Cool Auto
7 = Dry
I can’t get “Cool Auto” using the integration.
What’s the API for changing the mode? I’ll have a play.
What’s wrong with this command?
It returns OK but doesn’t seem to work, doesn’t change on the controller 
C:\Users\Family>curl -d “lpw=&pow=1&mode=0&stemp=23&shum=–&f_rate=5&f_dir=0&lpw=&f_airside=0” http://192.168.1.163/skyfi/aircon/set_control_info
ret=OK
Modify appliance.py in pydaikin to have support for auto. I’ll do the necessary changes in a few hours.
Edit: PR submitted, https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/pull/31080 this is the change needed in pydaikin, https://bitbucket.org/mustang51/pydaikin/pull-requests/16/some-airbase-units-support-auto/diff
Thanks heaps.
Just for my sanity, do you know why this didn’t work ->
C:\Users\Family>curl -d “lpw=&pow=1&mode=0&stemp=23&shum=–&f_rate=5&f_dir=0&lpw=&f_airside=0” http://192.168.1.163/skyfi/aircon/set_control_info
ret=OK
No, but test it in your browser…
Yeah that works, cheers
Getting some weird behaviour with HA, HomeKit, the Daikin integration and airbase.
Since the last update, where the air conditioner was previously set to “Cool” to 22 degrees, if I ask Siri “turn on the air conditioner”, it now turns on the Daikin to “Auto” mode instead of “Cool”.
Homekit reflects cooling to 22 degrees, Lovelace reflects cooling to 22 degrees, but the Daikin wall controller reflects “Auto” with the Cool setback temperature at 22 degrees.
On the Daikin wall controller, if I manually set it to “Cool”, within a few seconds something is forcing it back to “Auto”, every time.
Appreciate any help!!
Here’s some weirdness in the logs. Never setting Auto mode in Homekit, so not sure why it’s requesting it. Also it says it’s instantly switching back to Cool but this isn’t happening either. Daikin control panel stuck on “Auto”.
Strange. Could you test and disable homekit and see what’s happening then.
Perhaps it is the homekit integration that is broken, not Daikin.
Sorry for the delay. I’ve tested - HomeKit is definitely the issue. Its sending the “heat_cool” command rather than just “cool” like it used to.
I’ve looked through the HomeKit changes for the last few releases and can’t see anything that would be impacting this though.
It is definitely this part that breaks it. Open an issue…
3 can’t be both HVAC_MODE_AUTO and HVAC_MODE_AUTO (line 79)…
My suggestion is to remove line 75 & 77…
When was this change made? Because was all working fine until ~6-8 weeks ago.
That latest request on the issue - is that something I need to do or you?
Sounds like it might be pushing my technical expertise but can try if you want to show me
Yes, please continue the discussion there. (https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/33386#issuecomment-605664790)
I neither have an AirBase unit or homekit so I can’t test it.
