Supported Sub-components

Sensors, buttons, and select menus can be added to the configuration for additonal functionality. This page lists the available components with example configuration.

Sensors​

Sensors provide additional information from the equipment. Not all sensors are available on all systems; see sensor notes for additional information.

Sensor Notes​

outdoor_temperature​

The outdoor_temperature sensor seems to provide values inconsistently. It's possible that the byte containing the value has a flag in it, and it seems like the temperature is only reported under certain conditions.

actual_fan​

While the unit is preheating or at set-point, sometimes the fan will be running at a speed other than the requested one; this sensor reports that "actual" speed.

Buttons​

A button can be added to reset the filter change status:

button:
- platform: mitsubishi_itp
  filter_reset_button:
    name: "Filter Reset"

Selects​

Vane Control​

On units with vertical or horizontal vane control, the following components can be added to the configuration to enable control.

select:
  - platform: mitsubishi_itp
    vane_position:
      name: "Vane Position"
    horizontal_vane_position:
      name: "H. Vane Position"
