Caveats

HomeAssistant does not provide separate functionality to horizontal and vertical swings so they have been clubbed together to function correctly but with reduced observation as follows:

The Vertical states are preferred over horizontal states unless the vertical state is set to V0(auto). You can take a look at the following table to understand the outcome.

Mode set in UI	Mode set in AC	Mode displayed on UI when vertical swing is on auto mode	Mode displayed on UI when vertical swing is NOT on auto mode
V0	V0	V0	V0
V1	V1	V1	V1
V2	V2	V2	V2
V3	V3	V3	V3
V4	V4	V4	V4
V5	V5	V5	V5
H0	H0	H0	Vx
H1	H1	H1	Vx
H2	H2	H2	Vx
H3	H3	H3	Vx
H4	H4	H4	Vx
H5	H5	H5	Vx

Here Vx is the vertical swing mode set before and x can be either of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Note: Even with Vx being displayed on the UI the AC would still be set to proper Horizontal swing mode so you can use your automation to control the horizontal swing mode but might not be able to watch for mode changes in horizontal mode.
