XM-18 Mini Digital Automatic Egg Incubator DocumentationOverviewThe XM-18 Mini Digital Automatic Egg Incubator is a compact and feature-rich IoT component designed for incubating eggs. It provides a stable and controlled environment for egg development, with automatic temperature, humidity, and egg turning control. This component is ideal for hobbyists, breeders, and researchers working with poultry or reptile eggs.Technical SpecificationsOperating Temperature: 30C to 40C (86F to 104F)
Humidity Range: 30% to 70%
Egg Capacity: 18 eggs
Power Supply: DC 12V, 1A
Communication Protocol: UART, I2C
Dimensions: 150 x 120 x 70 mm (5.9 x 4.7 x 2.8 in)Programming InterfacesThe XM-18 Mini Digital Automatic Egg Incubator provides two programming interfaces: UART and I2C.UART InterfaceThe UART interface allows for serial communication with the incubator using a microcontroller or a single-board computer.Example 1: Using an Arduino BoardIn this example, we will use an Arduino board to control the XM-18 Mini Digital Automatic Egg Incubator using the UART interface.```c++
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>#define INCUBATOR_TX 2
#define INCUBATOR_RX 3SoftwareSerial incubatorSerial(INCUBATOR_TX, INCUBATOR_RX);void setup() {
incubatorSerial.begin(9600);
}void loop() {
// Set temperature to 38C
incubatorSerial.print("T,38
");
delay(1000);// Set humidity to 50%
incubatorSerial.print("H,50
");
delay(1000);// Turn eggs
incubatorSerial.print("E,1
");
delay(1000);
}
```I2C InterfaceThe I2C interface allows for communication with the incubator using a microcontroller or a single-board computer.Example 2: Using a Raspberry PiIn this example, we will use a Raspberry Pi to control the XM-18 Mini Digital Automatic Egg Incubator using the I2C interface.```python
import smbus# I2C address of the incubator
INCUBATOR_ADDRESS = 0x1A# Create an instance of the I2C bus
bus = smbus.SMBus(1)def set_temperature(celsius):
bus.write_byte_data(INCUBATOR_ADDRESS, 0x01, celsius)def set_humidity(percent):
bus.write_byte_data(INCUBATOR_ADDRESS, 0x02, percent)def turn_eggs(enabled):
bus.write_byte_data(INCUBATOR_ADDRESS, 0x03, enabled)# Set temperature to 38C
set_temperature(38)# Set humidity to 50%
set_humidity(50)# Turn eggs
turn_eggs(True)
```Example 3: Using a NodeMCU Board with Wi-FiIn this example, we will use a NodeMCU board to control the XM-18 Mini Digital Automatic Egg Incubator using the UART interface and Wi-Fi connectivity.```c++
#include <WiFi.h>const char ssid = "your_wifi_ssid";
const char password = "your_wifi_password";WiFiServer server(80);#define INCUBATOR_TX D2
#define INCUBATOR_RX D3SoftwareSerial incubatorSerial(INCUBATOR_TX, INCUBATOR_RX);void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
incubatorSerial.begin(9600);WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
delay(1000);
Serial.println("Connecting to WiFi...");
}Serial.println("Connected to WiFi");
server.begin();
}void loop() {
WiFiClient client = server.available();
if (client) {
String request = client.readStringUntil('
');
if (request.indexOf("T,") != -1) {
int temperature = request.substring(2).toInt();
incubatorSerial.print("T," + String(temperature) + "
");
} else if (request.indexOf("H,") != -1) {
int humidity = request.substring(2).toInt();
incubatorSerial.print("H," + String(humidity) + "
");
} else if (request.indexOf("E,") != -1) {
int enabled = request.substring(2).toInt();
incubatorSerial.print("E," + String(enabled) + "
");
}
client.stop();
}
}
```In this example, we create a simple web server using the NodeMCU board and Wi-Fi connectivity. The server listens for incoming requests and controls the incubator based on the received commands.
