Hi jstaab-
The mode 4 not being supported is a remnant from another plugin, where you could not set this mode directly. This will be enabled in the next build.
Also, was there a specific script command used in the old plugin to send a direct command? If so, I will emulate that functionality in the new plugin (to preserve scripts). This will most likely be send-only, but a receive might be incorporated if there is enough user need for it.
From the thermostat API, you can use GetCurrentMode to get the correct operating mode (I.E., Heating or Cooling when in auto), then use GetOperating to determine whether the thermostat is calling for the current set mode.
There is not any FanOperating, and this really should be added. I will talk to Rich about this to see if we can change the thermostat API in any way.
