Integration not possible to switch between manual and auto

[pacostef57]

When I want to switch from auto mode to manual mode and vice versa, it doesn't work.

Can you give me the diagnostics file ?
Kind regards,

I don't know if you'll be able to get anything to work here. In the recording, I simply switched between manual and automatic mode two or three times, waiting a little while each time, but the change is never registered whether the stove is on or off.

@pacostef57,
Can you give me some more info ?
How long do you wait to see the switch reflected ? (Polling time 30 sec)
Do you have the same behavior in the MCZ mobile app ?
Was this always a problem for you (stove model related ? )

The more info the better.

Kind Regards,
Robbe

Hi. Anyway, with the Home Assistant integration, the auto/manual switching has never worked with my stove. In the MCZ mobile app, there's no problem; it switches almost instantly. In the integration, when I switch the auto/manual toggle, it displays "manual" but the icon still corresponds to "auto". And when the stove is in manual mode, when I try to switch it to auto, it does display "auto," but the hand icon (manual) remains. In any case, when I exit the MCZ integration view and go back to it, the switch appears in its previous mode (i.e., not switched). When my stove is set to manual in the MCZ app, it appears as "manual" in the Home Assistant integration, and when my stove is set to auto in the MCZ app, it appears correctly as "auto" in the integration. Regarding the delay (polling), no matter how long I wait after switching the toggle in the integration, nothing happens.

I think, I found a potential problem.
MCZ changed their mappings to define both the old models and the new models.
Normally, this should keep working, but you never know.
I'll have a look at this later 😄

Thank you for looking into this problem. I don't quite understand your screenshots because I'm not very good at coding... and the translations into French make it even harder for me to understand our conversations, but it will be okay! Yes, I really want and need this function to work so I can effectively control the stove from Home Assistant. There's also the problem of the stove's status still being displayed in Italian (already reported by someone else).

@pacostef57,
When I try to toggle the mode (the stove should be on) with your stove mocked.
It sends the correct request to the server. So I'm not aware of any issues in this integration.

Is this the only command that doesn't work for your stove model ?

[pacostef57]

Yes, that's the only function that isn't working. I'm going to try uninstalling the integration and reinstalling it.

[Robbe-B]

Are the other modes working when selected ? Turbo, Overnight & Comfort ?

[pacostef57]

On my stove is only dynamic and manual.
I confirm, I have delete and re-instaled property the integration, and the values are not reported to the stove. On off is working, fans on off is ok, time set is ok, but switching between dynamic and manual via the integration have no effect.

[Robbe-B]

Wait if I understand correctly, the Turbo, Overnight & Comfort options are not possible on your stove ? Can you maybe share a screenshot of the MCZ app while the stove is on ?

[pacostef57]

Exactly, my stove (star confort air up M1) has only 2 modes.

Hello. Do you plan to work on making the mode switching (auto/manual) functional on my stove model?
