	1. Introduction.

	2. Hardware.

	3. Raspberry GPIO.

Most of the hardware is connected via the 8 GPIO pins on the 26p connector.
Currently the pins are used or reserved for:

    GPIO0  - out - 433 MHz transmitter module (FS1000A).
    GPIO1  - out - reserved for PWM.
    GPIO2  - out - Frontpanel LED.
    GPIO3  - bus - DHT11 sensor.
    GPIO4  - in  - Frontpanel Key Enter.
    GPIO5  - in  - Frontpanel Key Down.
    GPIO6  - in  - Frontpanel Key Up.
    GPIO7  - bus - 1-Wire bus (Maxim protocol).


	4. Keyed menu.

Using three buttons the device can be controlled. The menu is entered by
pressing the Enter key for 2 seconds. With the up and down keys you can step
through the menu. Press escape to go back, Press enter for 2 seconds to
set the new value.
Escape is press both arrow keys together.
If not in a menu, short touch of the keys activate the LCD display backlight.
The arrow keys select the current item to display.

	6. PID adjustments.

* Start with pGain, dGain and iGain set to 0.
* Increase Kp until small oscillation.
* Increase Kd until a little damping.
* Increase Ki after Kp and Kd are set until longterm convergence.
