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"

Temperature Source Select​

See adding extra temperature sources.

Switches​

Zone Control​

On supported units, each switch controls one zone. At least one zone needs to be configured for zones to be enabled.

switch:
zone_1:
name: "Zone 1"
...
zone_9:
name: "Zone 9"
