# Examples:
# 
# > require 'radio_thermostat'
# > rt = RadioThermostat.new('192.168.1.14')
#
# Get current tempurature:
# > rt.current_temperature
# 64.5
#
# Set mode to "heat" and assign new target tempurature
# > rt.heat_target_tempurature = 65
#
# Set mode to "cool" and assign new target tempurature
# > rt.cool_target_tempurature = 73
#
# Turn on fan
# > rt.turn_on_fan
#
# Turn off fan
# > rt.turn_off_fan
#
# Turn off system entirely
# > rt.turn_off
