+	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.

+                             Beer/Fridge mode, change temperature.
+                             Profile mode -- If OFF, select a profile.
+                                             If OFF, allow start profile.
+                                             If RUN, allow pause/abort.
+                                             If PAUSE, allow resume/abort.
+                                             If DONE, allow to go OFF.

+	6. PID adjustments.
+
+* Start with Kp, Kd and Ki 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.
