Heating / Cooling Sensor and request to set room temperature from external HA sensor

[roberttoja-priv]

Hi, many thanks for your work - much appreciated.

It works correctly with ESRD-VM6D the only issue I found is that Heating / Cooling sensor reports Unknown value: 02.

I have a question - is it possible to add sending to heat pump room temperature from external HA sensor? My heatpump is in a garage and temperature there is 15 degrees and I would like to switch to Heating Room Temperature mode. I've seen that it is possible for ATA Heat Pumps like here: https://github.com/geoffdavis/esphome-mitsubishiheatpump#remote-temperature

Thanks in advance!

Hi @roberttoja-priv,

I have fixed the Heating/Cooling unknown value, so that should work for you now.
I did try to implement setting the room temperature remotely, but that doesn't seem to work for me.
The command structure is quite different for these type of pumps anyway, so I tried to adapt to the other commands used.
Maybe it doesn't work for me since I have a remote unit.
You can try if it works for you, if so let me know.
