    v21 v22  
    1414* You need to know the IP address of your thermostat. I suggest either assigning a static IP to the thermostat, or creating a static / permanent DHCP allocation for the thermostat in your router. 
    1515* The thermostat firmware must be version 1.04.64 or newer. '''Note: to be able to use the full feature set of the plugin, firmware version 1.04.82 or newer is required.''' To check your current thermostat version, browse to http://IPAddressOfYourThermostat/ and look for "Firmware Version" at the bottom of the page.

     17= What's New / Version History = 
     18 
     19== 2.0 == 
     20 
     21* Changed UPnP device type of the plugin to "urn:schemas-hugheaves-com:device:HVAC_ZoneThermostat:1" to prevent user interface problems for installations with both Z-Wave thermostats and RTCOA Wifi thermostats. 
     22* Added the "!CreateGenericDevice" option. When enabled, this creates an additional device of type "urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:HVAC_ZoneThermostat:1" controlling the same physical thermostat as the main device. This allows the plugin to maintain compatibility with apps that only recognize "urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:HVAC_ZoneThermostat:1" as thermostats. 
     23 
     24== 1.0 == 
     25 
     26* Added "!LooseTempControl" setting 
     27* Fixed minor bug with hold status updates 
     28 
     29== 0.9 == 
     30 
     31* Added "custom" thermostat icon (looks like a mini 3M-50) 
     32* Added GPL license headers to source code 
     33* Code cleanup / refactoring 
     34 
     35== 0.8 == 
     36* Added clock sync function to synchronize the thermostat's clock with Vera's clock.  
     37* Added UPnP API functions to control LED's and PMA (Price Messaging Area). The PMA is the (mostly unused) numerical display in the upper left corner of the 3M-50. 
     38* Added remote temperature function - allows any Vera supported temperature device to replace the internal temperature sensor in the thermostat 
     39* Added PMA temperature function - displays the current temperature from any Vera supported temperature device in the PMA (Price Messaging Area).  
     40* Added "Program Setpoint" feature - this feature updates the built-in program in the thermostat to maintain the new current setpoint everytime the setpoint is changed. This helps keep th

     43== 0.7 == 
     44* Added adjustable polling interval 
     45* Added Celsius support 
     46* Re-based UI on current UI5 Z-Wave thermostat UI 
     47* Added support for maintaining hold setting across mode changes 
     48* Added support for "Force Hold" to always keep thermostat in hold mode 
     49* Reworked logging code to support run-time adjustable log levels

     51== 0.4 == 
     52* Improved reliability of communications, minor bug fixes

    131173'''Description:''' When this variable is set to "1", the thermostat plugin will not attempt to maintain the Vera setpoint when changing operating mode or hold status. Typically, this means that the thermostat setpoint will revert to setpoint in the thermostat's internal schedule. When the variable is set to "0", the plugin will make sure the thermostat remains at the Vera setpoint even when changing mode or hold status.

     177'''Required Plugin Version:''' 2.0+ 
     178 
     179'''Default Value:''' 0 
     180 
     181'''Description:''' When this variable is set to "1", the thermostat plugin will create an extra "genric" thermostat device of type "urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:HVAC_ZoneThermostat:1". Both the main thermostat device and this generic device will control the same physical thermostat. This feature allows the Wifi thermostat to be recognized by applications that only recognize the generic "urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:HVAC_ZoneThermostat:1" devices as thermostats. If your Wifi thermostats are controllable in the apps that you use, then there is no need to enable this feature.
