 ===== Using =====
-The G1 and G14 heater thermostat can be set from the control panel or mqtt. Heaters must be run on the lowest power setting to avoid exceeding the plug's safe switching capacity.
+The G1, G2 and G14 heater thermostat can be set from the control panel or mqtt. Setting a higher temperature will not make the room heat up faster.
-There is currently no heater in G2.
 There is also central heating from Summerhall, which is switched on rarely. Panels are above the windows of G1, and above the test gear in G14. It can by adjusted with the knobs.

 ===== Implementation Details =====
-The electric heater in G1 is controlled by multiple WiFi switched sockets. Room temperature is determined by the wireless sensor with DS18B20, LDR, and two AA batteries on the G1 table, the thermostat is a python script at ehl-vm-things:/srv/docker/py3scripts/scripts/thermostat.
+The electric heaters in G1, G2 and G8 are switched by multiple WiFi sockets. Room temperature is determined by the LoRaWAN connected environment sensors (ehl-vm-things:/srv/docker/py3scripts/scripts/co2-sensors), or in G1 the sensor on the table (with DS18B20, LDR, and two AA batteries). Room presence is determined by the PIRs OR environment sensors (ehl-vm-things:/srv/docker/py3scripts/idle-monitor).
+The thermostat is a python script at ehl-vm-things:/srv/docker/py3scripts/scripts/thermostat.
 Target temperature can be changed by [[mqtt|MQTT Message Bus]] messages, which can be sent by the control panel in G1, or by your computer.
-The plugs are [[private:mqtt_devices|MQTT devices]] which also monitor power usage.

 ===== TODO =====
-  * Put plug stats into Grafana
+  * Fan heater boost mode
   * Warn when the heater power is set too high and turn the plug off
+  * Repair the G2 PIR
+  * Repair the G14 PIR
+  * Stop using cloud-based temperature and presence detection
