To create fully working thermostat you will need:

• Temperature sensor for air temperature input and if electric floor heating is used, also one for floor temperature
• an Output actuator
• virtual Thermostat device
• Hysteresis Smart Rule

1. To create Input sensors go to module where physical temperature sensors are located and enable them:

3. To create Virtual Thermostat, go to Settings → Virtual devices → Add device → Thermostatdoc_tap_VirtualThermostat;

4. Open Thermostat Service settings and define Air sensor (and a Floor Sensor as well for electric floor heating) enabled in Step 1.doc_tap_ThermostatServicesettings;

5. Add Smart Rule Temperature hysteresis controller with following settings

• Mode = Heating fixed
• Medium = Hot (fixed) 

(Mode and Medium are explained here Heating and Cooling modes)

• Range = oscillation range +/- value, default value 0.5 Degrees,
• Output device = Output actuator, 
• Limit temperature + Limit temperature Sensor =  usually floor temperature sensor with the limit temperature value
