Sends the payload configured with `payload_on` if the climate is turned on via the `climate.turn_on`, or the payload configured with `payload_off` if the climate is turned off via the `climate.turn_off` service. The climate device reports it's state back via `mode_command_topic`. Note that when this option is used in `optimistic` mode, service `climate.turn_on` will send a the message configured with `payload_on` to the device but will not update the state of the climate.
