        A Python module to control a FreshRoastSR700 coffee roaster.
        
        Usage
        =====
        
        .. code:: python
        
          import time
          import multiprocessing
          import freshroastsr700
        
          # freshroastsr700 uses multiprocessing under the hood.
          # call multiprocessing.freeze_support() if you intend to
          # freeze your app for packaging.
          multiprocessing.freeze_support()
        
          # Create a roaster object.
          roaster = freshroastsr700.freshroastsr700()
        
          # Conenct to the roaster.
          roaster.connect()
        
          # Set roasting variables.
          roaster.heat_setting = 3
          roaster.fan_speed = 9
          roaster.time_remaining = 20
        
          # Begin roasting.
          roaster.roast()
        
          # This ensures the example script does not end before the roast.
          time.sleep(30)
        
          # Disconnect from the roaster.
          roaster.disconnect()

        Installation
        ============
        The latest release of this package can be installed by running:
        
        ::
        
            pip install freshroastsr700
        
        Please note that on OS X and Windows systems, you will need to install te ChiHeng CH341 driver in order for the freshroastsr700 module to talk to hardware. The easiest way to do this is to download the Openroast installer package, which bundles these drivers.
        
        Version History
        ===============
        Version 0.2.3 - May 2017
        ------------------------
         - Resolves issues #22, 23, 24 and 25, and 29 (the latter introduced by
           0.2.2).  Added logic to handle hardware
           connects and hardware disconnects properly in all supported OSes.  Software
           now supports multiple connect()-disconnect() cycles using the same
           freshroastsrs700 object instance. Tested in Windows 10 64-bit and
           Ubuntu 14.04.
        
        Version 0.2.2 - May 2017
        ------------------------
         - [Introduced issue #29. Inoperable in Windows environments - do not use.]
        
        Version 0.2.1 - March 2017
        --------------------------
         - Resolves issue #20 by managing hardware discovery logic in the
           comm process, eliminating the need for the thread heretofore
           associated with auto_connect.  Openroast 1.2 (currently in development)
           now operates properly in Windows 10 64-bit, with this fix.
        
        Version 0.2.0 - March 2017
        --------------------------
         - Completely rewritten PID control for tighter tracking against target
           temperature (when freshroastsr700 is instantiated with thremostat=True).
         - Callback functions for update_data_func and state_transition_func now
           called from a thread belonging to the process that instantiated freshroastsr700.  This was necessary for Openroast version 1.2
           code refactoring.
         - Reduced processor load for PID control as part of code refactoring.
        
        Version 0.1.1 - Dec 28 2017
        ---------------------------
         - Added support for python 2.7.
        
        Version 0.1.0
