Reading the thermostat status

var hm = new Heatmiser('localhost', 1234);

hm.on('success', function(data) {
  console.log(data);
});
hm.on('error', function(data) {
  console.log(data);
});

hm.read_device();

Writing to the thermostat

var dcb;

// set frost mode
dcb = {
  runmode: 'frost'
}
hm.write_device(dcb);

// set current date and time
dcb = {
  time: new Date()
}
hm.write_device(dcb);

// set the thermostat hold
dcb = {
  heating: {
    target: 20, // C
    hold: 30 // minutes
  }
}
hm.write_device(dcb);
