Daikin BRP15B61 incorrect fan modes

See original GitHub issue

The problem

The Daikin integration is reporting the following fan modes are available:

fan_modes: Low, Mid, High, Low/Auto, Mid/Auto, High/Auto

When in fact only the following modes are available from the BRP15B61 device:

Low, Mid, High, Auto

The Airbase app only cycles through these 4 modes.

When attempting to set any of the erroneously available auto modes via the thermostat card the actual fan state is set to the following:

Low/Auto --> Low Mid/Auto --> Mid High/Auto --> High

So there is no way to select Auto fan mode.

UPDATE: from the discussion below, it is using the BRP15B61 wifi controller with the BRC1E63 wall panel that is reporting the wrong fan modes in the integration. Other wall controllers like the BRC24Z8A do not have this issue (they support the three xxx/auto modes).

All good @tomlut. To be clear, the issue remains. The integration’s Auto function cannot be used with that controller, as you explained in detail in your original post. The controller only allows for a single Auto level but the integration does not support this.

Hey all,

Sorry my email GitHub notifications were going to Junk so apologies for not responding - let me digest what’s going on and see if I can help.

FWIW I’ve noticed some odd behaviour since installing the 1.1.8 firmware - my fan speeds are now reporting some odd things (eg I have a 0 speed showing up as a fan speed that hasn’t been there until then).
