**Home Assistant release with the issue:**  0.91 **Last working Home Assistant release (if known):** N/A Ongoing issue **Operating environment (Hass.io/Docker/Windows/etc.):**  INtel NUC8i3 Ubuntu 18.04.2 **Component/platform:**  https://www.home-assistant.io/components/climate.knx **Description of problem:** Using the Thermostat Card in Lovelace UK in YAML Mode: Sample Lovelace Configuration of two thermostats are below. First Issue: when the HASS.io boots, all thermostats are shown in ECO mode, but actually they are in HEAT mode. Second Issue: If you change the operating mode of one thermostat via HASS.io , all the thermostats in the group should change as they use the same sending group address for all thermostats on a floor. However, If you change the operation mode on the Gira TS3+ Room Controller then HASS.io shows the correct operation mode on all thermostats in the group as expected. I would add the TS3+ is configured for 120 second status updates, this has been allowed for. Third Issue: Hass.io sometimes displays the wrong operating mode (incorrect thermostat colour) even when selected via HASS.io All of the issues above are 50/50 reliable, works about half of the time, so I suspect some kind of timing issue with the HASS.io messaging bus. type: horizontal-stack cards: - type: vertical-stack # column 1 cards: - type: thermostat entity: climate.study_climate name: Study - type: thermostat entity: climate.lounge_south_climate name: Lounge South - type: thermostat entity: climate.lounge_north_climate name: Lounge North **Problem-relevant `configuration.yaml` entries and (fill out even if it seems unimportant):** ```yaml Configuration.yaml looks like the following for the ground floor, you will note that the Operation Mode is the same group address for all thermostats on the ground floor, same for the first floor, exceptions are the bathrooms that have their own individual schedules knx: routing: local_ip: '192.168.0.24' fire_event: true fire_event_filter: ["0/0/*", "0/1/*", "0/2/*","0/3/*", "0/4/*", "0/5/*", "0/6/*", "1/0/*", "3/1/*", "3/2/*", "3/3/*", "3/4/*", "3/5/*", "3/6/*", "3/7/*", "4/1/*", "5/0/*", "5/1/*", "5/2/*", "5/3/*"] state_updater: true climate: - platform: knx name: 'Study Climate' temperature_address: '3/1/1' #Measured Temperature Gira TS3+ Output 64 target_temperature_address: '3/4/1' #Setpoint Command Value Gira TS3+ Input 80 target_temperature_state_address: '3/3/1' #Setpoint Status Value Gira TS3+ Output 104 operation_mode_address: '3/7/3' #Operating Mode Command Gira TS3+ Input 82 operation_mode_state_address: '3/6/1' #Operating Mode Status Gira TS3+ Output 90 on_off_state_address: '3/2/1' #command group to Theben HMT12 Gira TS3+ Output 96 max_temp: 25.0 min_temp: 5.0 - platform: knx name: 'Dining & Hall Climate' temperature_address: '3/1/2' target_temperature_address: '3/4/2' target_temperature_state_address: '3/3/2' #Setpoint Status Value operation_mode_address: '3/7/3' operation_mode_state_address: '3/6/2' on_off_state_address: '3/2/2' max_temp: 25.0 min_temp: 5.0 - platform: knx name: 'Lounge North Climate' temperature_address: '3/1/5' target_temperature_address: '3/4/5' target_temperature_state_address: '3/3/5' #Setpoint Status Value operation_mode_address: '3/7/3' operation_mode_state_address: '3/6/5' on_off_state_address: '3/2/5' max_temp: 25.0 min_temp: 5.0 - platform: knx name: 'Lounge South Climate' temperature_address: '3/1/4' target_temperature_address: '3/4/4' target_temperature_state_address: '3/3/4' #Setpoint Status Value operation_mode_address: '3/7/3' operation_mode_state_address: '3/6/4' on_off_state_address: '3/2/4' max_temp: 25.0 min_temp: 5.0 - platform: knx name: 'Kitchen Climate' temperature_address: '3/1/3' target_temperature_address: '3/4/3' target_temperature_state_address: '3/3/3' #Setpoint Status Value operation_mode_address: '3/7/3' operation_mode_state_address: '3/6/3' on_off_state_address: '3/2/3' max_temp: 25.0 min_temp: 5.0 ``` **Traceback (if applicable):** ``` ``` **Additional information:** Fell free to contact me is you would like some more information, or a demonstration via web desktop share.
