I’ve noticed an issue where if my thermostat is running a schedule, I cannot adjust the target_temp_low or target_temp_high. I’ve tried via card/developer/automation and the settings do not take.
I can turn the system on/off/heat/cool/heat_cool and adjust the fan with no issues, but adjusting the target temp while following a schedule does not work.
I have noticed that if I can get the system into temporary hold mode, then all settings from HA will take.
- Switch system from heat_cool to heat or cool
- Adjust climate.set_temperature > temperature parameter (this will put the system into temporary hold mode. I must adjust the temp while in heat or cool mode for the temporary hold to take. Switching just from heat_cool to heat or cool will not activate temporary hold mode)
- Put the system back into heat_cool mode (it remains in temporary hold mode)
- Adjust the target_temp_low and target_temp_high as desired. Settings will revert to scheduled temps when temporary hold expires.
Has anyone else experienced this, or have a better solution?
If not, I’m looking for help on how to write this in YAML in automation. My experience in sequencing is zero.
Thanks!
