Hi,

I am having trouble making an automation do what I want it to do. Here is what I want this automation to do:

I have a fan in my office that I am controlling with an IR remote using ESPHome device. I want the fan to power on when temperature in the room goes above 78F. I want the power button to be pressed down to change the speed from 4 to 1. I want the power button to be pressed 4 times. 1 time to power on the fan, and 3 other times to lower it to 1. and then i want the Oscillation button to be pressed to make the fan oscillate.

Here is what my automation looks like.

This did not work for me.

What does that mean?

I mean, it did not go to power level 1 like i wanted to and the Oscillation did not trigger at all.
