			== Cabling ==

			* For each relay, we have a pair going to it though the cabling of the house
			* We push 5V on those pairs
			* All relays go to the patch panel in the work room:
			** Lecture room - pp 15
			** Work room - pp 18
			** Hackvarium - pp 7
			* From that patch panel over pp 5 through cable WR2 they go to the rack in the coridor, to pp 2, and from it to the neomontana netcontrol
			* On the netcontrol we use relays 5-7 to control this, and push 5V from a normal power supply.

			** If it's day and the lamps aren't forced on, they're turned off;
			** If it's night, the door is locked and more than 15 minutes have passed since the locking, the lamps are turned off;
			* If the lamps are off:
			** If they're forced, they're turned on;
			** If it's night and the door is unlocked (e.g. there are people in the lab), the lamps are turned on;
