Code Examples
### Example 1: Temperature Control using Arduino
This example demonstrates how to use the Aluminium Heat Block with an Arduino board to control the temperature of the hotend.
```c
#include <Arduino.h>
// Define the pin for the temperature sensor
const int tempSensorPin = A0;
// Define the pin for the heater
const int heaterPin = 9;
void setup() {
// Initialize the serial communication
Serial.begin(9600);
// Initialize the heater pin as an output
pinMode(heaterPin, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
// Read the temperature from the sensor
int tempReading = analogRead(tempSensorPin);
float temperature = tempReading 5.0 / 1024.0;
// Set the target temperature
float targetTemp = 200.0;
// Calculate the error
float error = targetTemp - temperature;
// Control the heater
if (error > 0) {
digitalWrite(heaterPin, HIGH);
} else {
digitalWrite(heaterPin, LOW);
}
// Print the temperature
Serial.print("Temperature: ");
Serial.print(temperature);
Serial.println(" C");
// Wait for 1 second
delay(1000);
}
```
### Example 2: Marlin Firmware Configuration
This example demonstrates how to configure the Marlin firmware to use the Aluminium Heat Block with the E3D V6 J-head 3D printer.
```c
// Marlin firmware configuration
// Define the temperature sensor type
#define TEMP_SENSOR_TYPE 1
// Define the heater pin
#define HEATER_PIN 2
// Define the temperature sensor pin
#define TEMP_SENSOR_PIN A0
// Define the maximum temperature
#define MAX_TEMP 300
// Define the bed heating settings
#define BED_HEATING 1
#define BED_HEAT_PIN 3
#define BED_TEMP_SENSOR_PIN A1
// Define the hotend heating settings
#define HOTEND_HEATING 1
#define HOTEND_HEAT_PIN 2
#define HOTEND_TEMP_SENSOR_PIN A0
```
