# Standalone iHeater Firmware

iHeater is a compact and affordable solution for 3D printers without an active heated chamber or with limited connection options to the mainboard. It's especially useful for printers with proprietary boards lacking free ports for fans, heaters, or thermistors. iHeater solves this with a simple and universal approach.

It can operate standalone with its own firmware or be integrated with Klipper over USB.

## About the Firmware

**iHeater** is firmware for a standalone device that manages the temperature of a 3D printer's heated chamber.

---

## Purpose

The device ensures heating and stable temperature maintenance inside the printer's chamber, which is critical for printing ABS, ASA, and other shrinkage-sensitive and adhesion-sensitive filaments.

---

## How to Configure the Firmware

### Automatic enabling and disabling r1.1

Macros

```
#define TRIGGER_ON_TEMP  45.0f
#define TRIGGER_OFF_TEMP 80.0f
#define TRIGGER_MODE MODE_2
```

These parameters define the activation and deactivation temperatures for the heater, as well as the mode to be enabled upon activation.

Assuming the trigger thermistor is located near the heated bed.
With the current settings, the chamber heater will turn on when the bed temperature reaches 45°C and will turn off when the bed temperature drops below 80°C. These parameters are suitable for most filaments that require an actively heated chamber and do not cause logical conflicts during operation.

It is also possible to select the mode that will be activated when the trigger is engaged. For example, TRIGGER_MODE MODE_2 is currently selected, which means that MODE_TEMP_2 will be activated, setting the chamber temperature to 60.0°C.

## How to Use

=== "r1"

* **Short press** of the MODE button - switches modes (0-7)
    * **Long press (2+ sec)** - resets the mode to 0 (OFF)
    * **LED indicators** display the current mode according to the table above
    * **Flashing LEDs** - mode is active but target temperature not yet reached
    * **Solid light** - target temperature reached

=== "r1.1"

!!! note "Revision Differences"

revision r1.1 features a trigger port for automatic chamber heating control. When a thermistor is connected to the trigger port, heating will turn on and off according to the temperatures specified in config.h, by default 45 and 80 for heating activation and deactivation.

* **Short press** of the MODE button - switches modes (0-7)
    * **Long press (2+ sec)** - resets the mode to 0 (OFF)
    * **LED indicators** display the current mode according to the table above
    * **Flashing LEDs** - mode is active but target temperature not yet reached
    * **Solid light** - target temperature reached

### Resetting an Error

Hold the MODE button during startup until the LEDs change. The stored error will be cleared from flash memory, and the device will resume normal operation.

## Fine Tuning

If there is confirmation that the thermocouple readings deviate from the actual temperature, the fine tuning function can be used. For this purpose, it is necessary to measure the resistance of the corresponding resistors and record these values instead of the default ones.

```C++ title="Actual resistance of the pull-up resistors"
#define PULLUP_TH0 4700.0f
#define PULLUP_TH1 4700.0f
#define PULLUP_TH2 4700.0f
```
