Pinout Description
The Ultrabase 310310mm 3D Printer Platform Tempered Heated Bed Glass Plate with Microporous Coating features a set of pins that enable connectivity with a 3D printer controller board. The following section provides a detailed explanation of each pin and a step-by-step guide on how to connect them.
Pinout Structure:
The pinout structure consists of a 4-pin JST XH connector, where each pin is labeled as follows:
Pin 1: VCC (Red Wire)
Function: Power supply ( Positive )
Voltage: 12V or 24V (dependent on the 3D printer controller board)
Description: This pin provides the power supply to the heated bed. Ensure the voltage matches the rating of your 3D printer controller board.
Pin 2: GND (Black Wire)
Function: Power supply ( Negative )
Voltage: 0V
Description: This pin provides the ground connection for the heated bed. Ensure a secure connection to the ground terminal on the 3D printer controller board.
Pin 3: TH (Yellow Wire)
Function: Thermistor Signal
Signal: Thermistor reading (analog signal)
Description: This pin connects to the thermistor embedded in the heated bed, which monitors the temperature. Connect this pin to the thermistor input on the 3D printer controller board.
Pin 4: SIG (White Wire)
Function: Heated Bed Signal
Signal: Heated bed control signal (digital signal)
Description: This pin connects to the heated bed control output on the 3D printer controller board. The signal controls the heating element in the Ultrabase platform.
Connection Guide:
To connect the pins, follow these steps:
1. Identify the 4-pin JST XH connector on the Ultrabase 310310mm 3D Printer Platform Tempered Heated Bed Glass Plate with Microporous Coating.
2. Locate the corresponding pins on the 3D printer controller board.
3. Connect the VCC (Red Wire) to the 12V/24V power supply terminal on the 3D printer controller board.
4. Connect the GND (Black Wire) to the GND terminal on the 3D printer controller board.
5. Connect the TH (Yellow Wire) to the Thermistor Input terminal on the 3D printer controller board.
6. Connect the SIG (White Wire) to the Heated Bed Control Output terminal on the 3D printer controller board.
7. Securely connect the wires to their respective terminals, ensuring proper insulation and avoiding any short circuits.
Important Note:
Before powering on the 3D printer, double-check the connections to ensure they are secure and correct. Consult your 3D printer controller board documentation for specific pinouts and connection guidelines, as they may vary depending on the manufacturer and model.

Code Examples

### Example 1: Marlin Firmware Configuration

In this example, we will demonstrate how to configure the Ultrabase heated bed using the Marlin firmware.

```c++
// Ultrabase heated bed configuration
#define HEATED_BED
#define HEATED_BED_START 20 // Initial temperature
#define HEATED_BED_END 120 // Maximum temperature
#define HEATED_BED_PREHEAT 60 // Preheat temperature

// Set the heated bed pin
#define HEATED_BED_PIN 13

// Initialize the heated bed
void setup() {
  pinMode(HEATED_BED_PIN, OUTPUT);
}

// Set the heated bed temperature
void loop() {
  int target_temp = 100; // Set the target temperature
  analogWrite(HEATED_BED_PIN, target_temp  255 / 120);
  delay(1000); // Wait for 1 second
}
```

### Example 2: Python Script for Temperature Control using RPi

In this example, we will demonstrate how to control the Ultrabase heated bed temperature using a Raspberry Pi (RPi) and Python.

```python
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import time

# Set the GPIO pin for the heated bed
HEATED_BED_PIN = 17

# Set the temperature range
MIN_TEMP = 20
MAX_TEMP = 120

# Initialize the GPIO pin
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
GPIO.setup(HEATED_BED_PIN, GPIO.OUT)

def set_temperature(temp):
    # Calculate the duty cycle based on the temperature
    duty_cycle = (temp - MIN_TEMP) / (MAX_TEMP - MIN_TEMP)  100
    GPIO.PWM(HEATED_BED_PIN, duty_cycle)

try:
    while True:
        # Set the temperature to 100C
        set_temperature(100)
        time.sleep(1)
        # Set the temperature to 80C
        set_temperature(80)
        time.sleep(1)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    GPIO.cleanup()
```
