Error in getting auto mode to work, seems to only work in either heat, or cool mode

[stevenmcastano]

Anytime I try to set the thermostat to auto to control both my AC unit and my heater is throws out an error:

And here is my config that I'm using to try to drive it:

climate:
  - platform: dual_smart_thermostat
    unique_id: "c135dffc-8fae-4ef0-b3f8-0aa2c1af8c2f"
    name: Bedroom Thermostat
    ac_mode: false
    cooler: input_boolean.input_boolean_bedroom_fan
    heater: input_boolean.input_boolean_bedroom_convector
    target_sensor: sensor.bedroom
    target_temp: 72
    initial_hvac_mode: "heat_cool"
    min_cycle_duration:
      seconds: 5
    cold_tolerance: 0.3
    hot_tolerance: 0.3
    min_temp: 40
    max_temp: 85
    comfort_temp: 72

Any help would be MUCH appreciated... this is exactly the dual mode type of thermostat I need with separate heating and cooling units!

It also does not work on my side, and the representation is strange

[sebastian-steinmann]

Fixed by this perhaps? #35

[sebastian-steinmann]

Seems to work if you specify target_temp_low and target_temp_high

[linuxdaemon]

Did you set heat_cool_mode: true? I just realized I forgot to and it fixed my issues https://github.com/swingerman/ha-dual-smart-thermostat#heat_cool_mode

[swingerman]

For heat/cool mode, you need to set:

heat_cool_mode: true
target_temp_low: xx
target_tem_high: xx
