Making an thermostate

Hello,
 
We have just started with labview at school, we just had an 1,5 day course. We have to make an assignment for this course. We decided to make a thermostate to control the temperature in a room.
 
It must have the following functionality:
 
Every day of the week has it's own settings. a starttime, an endtime and a temperature. We want to save the settings and according to the system time the program must select the settings of the day of the week.

For example: On monday the program is set to 21 degrees. The heating must go on at 9:00 am and go off at 10:00 pm
 
 
We are just struggeling with labview. Can someone give us some examples or code that we can use in this program?? We are really stuck!

Hello GB21,

Here´s a little example that could help you out a bit. it´s not the complete solution but a pretty good direction on how you could do it.

enjoy.

Our main problem is that we can't program the timing so that de heating will automatically start at 9:00 am and go off at 12:00 pm and then on again at 7:00 pm and off at 10:00 pm.
