Daikin Climate "Preset Mode" Information #35333

Open bamcauliffe opened 1 month ago

bamcauliffe commented 1 month ago

Feedback

The information/documentation about the Daikin has the following for the "Preset mode" 1). Away 2). None In the integration the "Preset" options include 1). None 2). Away 3). Eco 4). Boost Can these options be added to the documentations as other states? Can the functionality of what "Eco" & "Boost" do?

I am not sure what "boost" should do. I have the BRP072A42 WIFI modules. On my 3 x Daikin remotes & Daikin Manuals, there is a "Powerful". Is the Boost & Powerful the same thing? "Powerful" sets the airflow rate to maximum & the outdoor unit capacity is increased for 20 minutes before returning to normal.

Depending what is the information added to this documentation, I may need to add a new issues about the integration about the Presets. When I select "Eco" or "Boost", nothing happens and it reverts back to "None". The "Away" does correctly turn off the air con. All the information about this integration is great. I thought I should check the documentation first before reporting any problems with the integration.

Hey there @fredrike, mind taking a look at this feedback as it has been labeled with an integration (daikin) you are listed as a code owner for? Thanks!

There are so many different units and they all behave slightly different. You have provided great insights on your particular unit. I don't think it is possible to extract the supported options for your unit so therefore we show all options.

Home assistant is an open source project and currently I'm trying my best to keet the Daikin integration running on my spare time. If you like pleas update the documentation with your findings. Also, if you open a ticket on pydaikin (the supporting backend code) we can look into your particular unit and see if we can figure out which modes it reports.
