Ability to control fan based on multiple thermistors

wilhoj commented 6 years ago

I wanted to connect my both hotends fan to single fan output. (wanted to save one fan output for controlling enclosure temperature) if i connect both with connect-therm-E-fan-2 and connect-therm-H-fan-2 this leads to unstable fan behavior (both processes tries to control fan).

So what i am needing, is that fan is running based on hottest thermistor reading..

I might write this feature, does this rough plan sound reasonable?

create simple Class which takes as input array of Heaters and spits out hottest temp with get_temperature()

-introduce few new config items something like: connect-allhotend-fan-1, connect-allhotend-fan-2 etc..

if those are enabled on config, on Redeem init creates new object based on this new Class and creates Cooler based on that and appropriate fan..

This should now be possible in the develop branch

There is an implementation which will enable this functionality (although not exactly as described) which is in testing on the 2.2 development. However, beware that it is still a WIP and may end up in a significantly different form.
