# homekit_wifi_thermostat
# esp-homekit-sonoff-basic

A thermostat accessory for remotely controlling central heating.
This provides a thermostat accessory, You also need a swith accessory and to set up event trigers in the Eve app to make the
connection between the thermostat and the switch, hence it's called wifi thermostat as the connection between the thermostat
accessory and your central heating device is wireless.

It uses a DH22 to sense the temperature and sets the current_heating_cooling_status based on the other settings of the
accessory. It sends events as the value changes, which can then be actioned by triggers using the Eve app.

For example when the thermostat sets the current_heating_cooling_status to heat/off, use Eve to trigger the switch accesory
to on/off respectively. You can also set timer based events in Eve to control the target_heating_cooling_status, in other
words you can create a program of when you want the heating to go on or off.
Homekit firmware for the Sonoff Basic, this uses an over the air (OTA) mechanism create by @HomeACcessoryKid
