To create fully working thermostat you will need two Input sensors (air and floor one), an Output actuator, virtual Thermostat device and Hysteresis Smart Rule
- To create Input sensors go to module where physical temperature sensors are located and enable them (usually NTC, UI or Core module).

2. To create an Output actuator, go to DO12 module where real output is located and enable this output as "Switch". This output relay will control related heating element.

4. Open Thermostat Servise settings and define Air and Floor Sensors enabled in Step 1.

5. Add Smart Rule Temperature hysteresis controller with following settings
- Mode = Heating fixed (there are more options explained here Heating and Cooling modes
- Medium = Hot (fixed) Range = oscilation range +/- value, default value 0.5 Degrees, Output device = Output actuator, Limit temperature + Lmit temperature Sensor = usually floor temperature sensor with the limit temperature value

6. Final result
