Depending on your kit version, please identify whether you have **ADC0834** or **MCP3008** and proceed with the matching section.
Introduction
-----------------
In this course, we will use motors, buttons and thermistors to make a
manual + automatic smart fan whose wind speed is adjustable.

Experimental Procedures
-----------------------------
**Step 1:** Build the circuit.

.. note::
The power module can apply a 9V battery with the 9V Battery
Buckle in the kit. Insert the jumper cap of the power module into the 5V
bus strips of the breadboard.

**For C Language Users**
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
**Step 2**: Get into the folder of the code.
.. raw:: html
.. code-block::
cd ~/davinci-kit-for-raspberry-pi/c/3.1.4/
**Step 3**: Compile.
.. raw:: html
.. code-block::
gcc 3.1.4_SmartFan.c -lwiringPi -lm
**Step 4**: Run the executable file above.
.. raw:: html
.. code-block::
sudo ./a.out
As the code runs, start the fan by pressing the button. Every time you
press, 1 speed grade is adjusted up or down. There are **5** kinds of
speed grades: **0~4**. When set to the 4\ :sup:`th` speed grade and you
press the button, the fan stops working with a **0** wind speed.
.. note::
If it does not work after running, or there is an error prompt: \"wiringPi.h: No such file or directory\", please refer to :ref:`install_wiringpi`.
Once the temperature goes up or down for more than 2℃, the speed
automatically gets 1-grade faster or slower.
**Code Explanation**
.. code-block:: c
int temperture(){
unsigned char analogVal;
double Vr, Rt, temp, cel, Fah;
analogVal = get_ADC_Result(0);
Vr = 5 * (double)(analogVal) / 255;
Rt = 10000 * (double)(Vr) / (5 - (double)(Vr));
temp = 1 / (((log(Rt/10000)) / 3950)+(1 / (273.15 + 25)));
cel = temp - 273.15;
Fah = cel * 1.8 +32;
int t=cel;
return t;
}
Temperture() works by converting thermistor values read by ADC0834 into
temperature values. Refer to :ref:`2.2.2_thermistor` for more details.
.. code-block:: c
int motor(int level){
if(level==0){
digitalWrite(MotorEnable,LOW);
return 0;
}
if (level>=4){
level =4;
}
digitalWrite(MotorEnable,HIGH);
softPwmWrite(MotorPin1, level*25);
return level;
}
This function controls the rotating speed of the motor. The range of the
**Level**: **0-4** (level **0** stops the working motor). One level
adjustment stands for a **25%** change of the wind speed.
.. code-block:: c
int main(void)
{
setup();
int currentState,lastState=0;
int level = 0;
int currentTemp,markTemp=0;
while(1){
currentState=digitalRead(BtnPin);
currentTemp=temperture();
if (currentTemp<=0){continue;}
if (currentState==1&&lastState==0){
level=(level+1)%5;
markTemp=currentTemp;
delay(500);
}
lastState=currentState;
if (level!=0){
if (currentTemp-markTemp<=-2){
level=level-1;
markTemp=currentTemp;
}
if (currentTemp-markTemp>=2){
level=level+1;
markTemp=currentTemp;
}
}
level=motor(level);
}
return 0;
}
The function **main()** contains the whole program process as shown:
1) Constantly read the button state and the current temperature.
2) Every press makes level\ **+1** and at the same time, the temperature
is updated. The **Level** ranges **1~4**.
3) As the fan works ( the level is **not 0**), the temperature is under
detection. A **2℃\ +** change causes the up and down of the level.
4) The motor changes the rotating speed with the **Level**.
**For Python Language Users**
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
**Step 2**: Get into the folder of the code.
.. raw:: html
.. code-block::
cd ~/davinci-kit-for-raspberry-pi/python
**Step 3**: Run.
.. raw:: html
.. code-block::
sudo python3 3.1.4_SmartFan.py
As the code runs, start the fan by pressing the button. Every time you
press, 1 speed grade is adjusted up or down. There are **5** kinds of
speed grades: **0~4**. When set to the 4\ :sup:`th` speed grade and you
press the button, the fan stops working with a **0** wind speed.
Once the temperature goes up or down for more than 2℃, the speed
automatically gets 1-grade faster or slower.
