Arduino Thermostat

[mihaium]

Hello.
I have a server with 2 arduino ethernet and a sensor DS18B20.
I would like to make a Thermostat with this sensor but do not know how to set the setpoint and how to increase and decrease the value of the temperature.
Is there any of you who managed to do something?

Thanks,
Marian

This is not something that can be done in the plugin. You can create a basic Thermostat using events and a virtual device.
There was talk on the board just last week of someone building a Thermostat plugin that can use any device as a temperature input and any device as an output so keep an eye out for that to.

I also thought a virtual device with events. But i need help to create a virtual device. Thanks

At the top of the Device management page there is a + symbol. If you click this it will create a new device that you can set to be what you want to. So I would name it Setpoint and place it in the room and location of your choice.
You can then set this device with the setpoint and then act on this in the events.
