Improvements to PID controller driver (#19285)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
* add: update DEBUG_THERMOSTAT to only control the virtual switch

Also, debug output is still generated but end user can control this debug level 3

* add: debug output of main controller parameters when thermostat enabled

Also, add units for debug outputs added to make them more intelligible

* Update xdrv_39_thermostat.ino

* add: debug message when sensor is detected as not alive

fix: display thermostat number in debug messages

* add: log message prefix string for thermostat

* Update xdrv_39_thermostat.ino

fix: typos in comments
add: debug messages

* add: debug prefix for thermostat

* add: debug prefix added to output lines

* fix: comment typos and small grammatical changes for clarity

* add: debug prefix 'THE' added to debug output

* add:  display PID status and key info on web output

* fix: remove extraneous comments that included unused code fragments

* add: local sensor handling improvements

add: define a local sensor name
add: define the local sensor measurement parameter
add: limit sensor not seen error message to every 60 seconds to avoid flooding the logs
add: include interval since which sensor data was last updated
fix: properly update the maximum interval time so missing sensor data is properly alerted

* Update xdrv_49_pid.ino
