Not a Fox issue just a Home Automations question.

I am very new to playing with Home Assistant and just starting with automations as still waiting for MPAN number so trying to avoid letting electricity 'escape' to the grid while we are not receiving payment for it.

I have an EBAC Dehumidifier connected via Tuya and it works great switching it on and off at appropriate times to avoid the peak charges on Octopus Flux.
The problem is I can't seem to work out how to change the fan speed. When I switch from 'dehumidify' to 'drying' mode the fan speed goes up to 100% but then when changing back the fan stays at 100% and doesn't return to 50%.

Is there any way to find a list of Actions for a device as in the automations they are not all listed. I can manually have a dashboard card that lets me control the fan speed but I don't know how to see the YAML behind the card.

Thanks for any help you can give.

It's not very easy i'm afraid, and anything involving Tuya is usually complex - if you add an entity card, and add the entity any available controls should be shown under attributes, or have a look at the Developer Tools, States for that entity to see what it supports in the Attributes column.

I've noted this from Tuya developer which shows the standard instruction set for dehumidifiers https://developer.tuya.com/en/docs/iot/ ... f45ts0b8lz but also worth having a look at this post https://community.home-assistant.io/t/w ... ier/417301 as it looks like you may have to tweak settings to get attributes recognised.

Sorry I can't be of more help

Thanks very much for that, it gives me some clues. I will post my solution if I work it out
