Set to Heat-Cool (Auto) Mode

Set a thermostat to heat-cool mode, also known as "auto" mode. To do so, you must include both cooling and heating set points in the payload, either in Celsius or Fahrenheit. For information about verifying the heating and cooling availability of the thermostat and validating the correct set points, see HVAC Mode Constraints and Set Point Constraints.
