		===== '''The Code''' =====

		This section is about developing the code to allow the arduino microcontroller to control and run the incubator as desired. The basic info for the first steps is here and it will be updated as we progress. The major focus for now will be on measurement of temperature and controlling it by peltier element.


		'''What needs to be done:'''


		* 1. temperature measurement by thermistor

		- temperature needs to be measured by thermistor (10 kohm)

		- frequency should be +- every 3-5 minutes (if the heating/cooling phase is not on, than measure every 30-60 seconds)

		- report/print the temperature so it is human readable (serial monitor?)


		* 2. switching on and off the peltier device based on temperature readings

		- the peltier is 100 W so it will have power source to power it (around 250 W)

		- switch the peltier relay based system on/off by arduino based on temperature reading (more below)



		* 3. switching on and off the fans to circulate the air from peltier to the incubator chamber

		- the fans may have to use the power source/relay circuit too or it may be possible to power them through arduino directly not sure about that yet (small 2x 80-40 mm fans)

		- once the peltier is switched on (based on temperature reading) the fan/s has to switch on (does the fan by the heat sink has to be always switched on???)

		- each fan is pointed to the hot respectively cold heat sink with separated air ventilation systems/ducts to the chamber and out

		- the peltier and fans should go a bit "over the desired temperature/overshoot" like a degree or two so they do not switch on/off all the time

		- once the peltier is on the temperature measurement should be performed every 30-60 seconds


		Well that would be a basic info, if you could have a look on it and please post on Tastebridge discuss or send email to Frantisek Algoldor Apfelbeck and it will be explained in more detail what needs to be, thanks a lot!



		'''Here is a very simple example of what we need:'''


		'''Constant temperature 25°C mode'''


		Goal - keep the temperature of the incubator constant at 25°C +- 1 one degree


		Procedure

		- measure the temperature every 3-5 minutes and display it (serial monitor)

		- if temperature differs from desired

		- switch on the peltier

		- switch on the fan by - heat sink (to warm up) or - cold sink (cool down)

		- increase the temperature measurement to frequency once per 30-60 seconds

		- switch off the peltier once desired temperature is reached (with one degree over shoot)

		- switch to the one per 3-5 minutes temperature measurement and display it (serial monitor)
