Scenario

The project is to create a smart thermostat controller. The device will contain a time of day clock and provide the following features and displays:

• Setting of current time and date

• Display of current temperature

• Display of current time and date

• Entry of a trigger temperature

• Output control for a heating circuit: When the temperature drops below the selected trigger temperature for a given duration of time the heating control output will be turned on and three short beeps are produced as confirmation. The given duration of time should be adjustable from 0 to 90 seconds.

• When the temperature rises above the selected trigger temperature for a given duration of time the heating control output will be turned off and 2 long beeps should be produced as confirmation. The given duration of time should be adjustable from 0 to 60 seconds. Notes different duration of time should be allowed for turning on and turing off the heating control output.

• The heating behavior should begin at 7:00 am in the morning and end at 10:30 pm. Outside these time the heating control output will be turned off.
