Your problem definition is not clear enough. What have you tried? Export and attach your flow.

OK trying to understand what you are asking for here

  1. You get an incoming temperature from a PLC device - this comes into Node Red
  2. You want to get this temperature message and then send it on to your smart thermostat ?

Based on the debug messages you have posted it looks like the thermostat expects the temperature to be in the msg.payload.temperature

Thererefore use a change node to take the msg.payload from the PLC and move it into msg.payload.temperature - no function node needed

Try msg.payload.temperature instead of msg.payload.value[0]

You need to watch the into videos to Node Red on youtube and read the basic doco

I think what @Paul-Reed was saying was.. try changing Line-1 of your original flow to...

var output = msg.payload.temperature;
