Current Temperature FGLair

[kevtuning]

Hi,

If I understand well , the only way to have the current temperature for FGLair AC (Fujitsu, ...) when running as an add-on is to integrate the Pull requests #222 and #224.

Is it correct ? and if yes, @deiger is it possible to integrate it in the next release ?

Thank you very much,

[legantois]

Same request here #240

I believe it is a key enhancement !

2x thank you very much

[kevtuning]

Any chance to get it merged with 2023.10 ?

[legantois]

Is there any way to get all integrated ?

[legantois]

seems we will never get this new feature on the official release

Could someone explains how to install an addon PR ?

my config: Core 2024.2.3 Supervisor 2024.02.0 Operating System 11.5 Frontend 20240207.1

Through lot of trials and errors, I was able to clone the repo and create a docker image from PR #224. I don't see the temperature on the thermostat card but mqtt sends the correct data as in the FGLair application. Link to paste in HA for installation: https://github.com/xury77/AirCon.git

Hi @xury77, what's the mqtt topic ?

Is it well 'display_temperature' ?

[xury77]

My topic is:

hisense_ac/047bcb58141e/display_temperature/status

And payload:

25.5

But when I go to HA > developer tools I have:

hvac_modes:

• "off"
• fan_only
• heat
• cool
• dry
• auto min_temp: 16 max_temp: 30 target_temp_step: 1 fan_modes:
• auto
• quiet
• low
• medium
• high swing_modes:
• "on"
• "off" current_temperature: null temperature: 24 fan_mode: low swing_mode: "on" friendly_name: AC000W026243923 MQTT HVAC supported_features: 425

So current_temperature remains null

[kevtuning]

I don't really see in the sources where it is doing the mapping display_temperature to current_temperature

[xury77]

I think is some env_temp related with f_temp_in.

@xury77

I am not an expert but I would try to test to change the line 247 of main.py

config['display_temperature_state_topic'] = mqtt_topics['pub'].format(device.mac_address, topics['display_temperature'])

by

config['current_temperature_topic'] = mqtt_topics['pub'].format(device.mac_address, topics['display_temperature'])

[xury77]

Yes. According https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/climate.mqtt/

current_temperature_topic string (optional) The MQTT topic on which to listen for the current temperature. A "None" value received will reset the current temperature. Empty values (''') will be ignored.

I will check it.

[xury77]

Yes at least it works:

[xury77]

New release 0.3.20 pushed to dockerhub and available at https://github.com/xury77/AirCon At least current temperature is displayed as above.

[legantois]

works on my side two

Many Thanks for the work !!!

[xury77]

I think I can be able to add some features for FGlair devices such as: vertical positions, eco, boost mode, energy saving, outdoor noise etc: I'm not a python developer but I like doing some hacks :)
