Thermal relationships: +- show thermal zone information +- show cooling device information +- show trip point binding within each thermal zone +- show trip point and cooling device instance bindings +.PP +2. Real time data display +- show temperature of all thermal zones w.r.t. its trip points and types +- show states of all cooling devices +.PP +3. Thermal relationship learning and device tuning +- with a built-in Proportional Integral Derivative (\fBPID\fP) +controller, user can pair a cooling device to a thermal sensor for +testing the effectiveness and learn about the thermal distance between the two +- allow manual control of cooling device states and target temperature +.PP +4. Data logging in /var/tmp/tmon.log +- contains thermal configuration data, i.e. cooling device, thermal + zones, and trip points.
