The control's number shows BLUE when cooling and RED when heating. The number turns WHITE when its the same as the room temp however the thermostat may be still be cooling or heating or just idle. It should NOT turn WHITE until it is actually NOT cooling or heating.
How to Reproduce
Say the room temp is 80 (F) degrees. If I lower the thermostat setting to 78 the number turns blue indicating that it is cooling. When the room temp reaches 78 the number turns white HOWEVER, the thermostat could still be cooling and will be doing so until it reaches its internal criteria to stop cooling. When the thermostat does stop cooling the number is still white so there is no way to tell if the thermostat is cooling or idle if the room temp is the same as its setting. Once the room temp equalizes the thermostat will cycle on and off but the R2 control does not indicate whether it’s on or off if the room temp is the same as the thermostat’s setting. Lowering the setting will change the number to blue but again once the room temp equalizes the number will turn white with no indication of it being on or off.
Expected behavior
The number should ONLY be white if the thermostat is in IDLE (i.e. not actively cooling nor heating.)
In the control in Home Assistant it specifically indicates either “Idle” or “Cooling” or “Heating.” So if the state of the thermostat is available in HA it should be available in the R2 control.
Is there an existing issue for this?
