Current Temperature missing #60

Closed Arunas-g closed 3 months ago

Arunas-g commented 3 months ago

Hello. I have a problem getting "Current Temperature" from my LG TC07GQR air conditioner. I have another LG air conditioner, model PC12SQ, it works perfectly. In the logs, instead of the temperature, it says “nan°C”

[15:01:01][D][climate:419]: Current Temperature: nan°C [15:01:01][D][climate:425]: Target Temperature: 26.00°C

At the same time, the air conditioner itself works normally, reacts to changes in “Target Temperature” and automatically changes the air flow rate. Air conditioner control is organized using "hardware-tiny". Please help me understand the reason for the incorrect display of the target temperature.

I attach logs and screenshots logs_Current Temperature nan C.txt image

It's using sensor.ac_lg_linas as room temperature sensor. Is that a sensor you have available in Home Assistant? Can you show information about that one?

JanM321 commented 3 months ago

Basically your options are:

  1. Set the "Internal Thermistor" setting to On to use the temperature value measured by the AC.
  2. Make sure sensor.ac_lg_linas is a valid temperature sensor in Home Assistant because it will be read by the controller.

If (2) doesn't work, it can fall back to (1) but this may not work 100% correctly (like what you see here).

I apologize for the trouble :) I turned on "Internal Thermistor" and after that "Current Temperature" is displayed correctly in the logs. Thank you!
