[daikin] wrong value off for TargetHeaterCoolerState characteristic of the item _HomekitMode

Has anyone experienced this before?

Using the default Daikin binding and Apple HomeKit to connect to an airconditiner using HeaterCooler rather than Thermostat.

When the air conditioner is set to OFF via homekit on IOS, I.E. air is not running and setting in homekit Mode is OFF, the following log file entries occur repeatedly every few minutes:

[WARN ] [ssories.AbstractHomekitAccessoryImpl] - Wrong value off for TargetHeaterCoolerState characteristic of the item LivingRoomAircon_HomekitMode. Expected one of following [AUTO, HEAT, COOL]. Returning AUTO.

from:
tail -f /var/log/openhab/openhab.log /var/log/openhab/events.log

Context

No issue with the functionality, just noise in the logfiles, annoying rather than anything not working.

My Environment

  • openHab 3.2.0 Release Build
  • Daikin Binding 3.2.0
  • Running on openHabian on raspberry pi 4
  • Airconditioner is Daikin Zena FTXJ35TVMAW / G001952
  • iOS 15.4

*The point ‘Homekit Mode’ has metadata:

Apple Homekit   HeaterCooler.TargetHeaterCoolerState

*with Code:

value: HeaterCooler.TargetHeaterCoolerState
config:
  HEAT: HEAT
  COOL: COOL

Any help gratefully received.
