The mini split units also have temperature sensors indoors. Usually there is one sensor that reads indoor ambient temperature and one that reads heat exchanger temperature. In cooling mode, the hx sensor functions as a defrost sensor. In heating mode, it works with the ambient temperature sensor to measure indoors delta T to do other things. I T all depends on how smart the controller is.
