Hi all, @JimT and I had a discussion about the right value to bring Daikin ac_units into auto mode. We observed that there are three values, mode=0, mode=1, and mode=7. Today, mode=0 is used, while there are reasons to assume that mode=1 could be the better one.
In order to find the right value, it would be great if Daikin Binding users with an ac_unit thing could call the following URL when the aircon is switched off. IPADDRESS is the IP of your Daikin air conditioning:
http://IPADDRESS/aircon/set_control_info?mode=1&f_dir_ud=0&f_rate=A&f_dir_lr=0&shum=&pow=1&stemp=22.0
Once done, it would be great if you could post
- your air conditioning model,
- whether the aircon got switched on after sending the command to the aircon and
- what you see as reply in your browser.
The URL should switch on your airconditioning in AUTO mode, cooling down to 22°C - or do nothing.
The two possible answers are something similar to ret=XXXX,adv= or only ret=XXXX. Proper testing is important, as a change from 0 to 1 as default for auto mode may affect today’s users.
Let us know in case you have questions. Thanks in advance!
