This article presents the design, programming, control and monitoring of the temperature, relative humidity, angular position and aeration of eggs of an artificial incubator prototype for the preservation of birds and reptiles endemic to Quintana Roo. As an example, the incubation parameters of poultry (chicken) and an endemic species (macaw) are presented. A shield card is used to facilitate coupling on the Arduino Mega card with the electronic components. The programming routine performs the automatic incubation, using the LabVIEW software to tune the PID controllers (Proportional Controller - Integral - Derivative) by means of the Ziegler-Nichols first and second method.

This article presents the development of the programming and the tuning of the control gains for a thermal system, the programming was carried out in the LabVIEW software where it is possible to visualize and manipulate the sensors, indicators and actuators, the data is represented in a graphical user interface. The Digital Write block is used in the RGB LED to determine the temperature level with color identification, the Analog Read block was also used to read the data of the temperature sensor LM35, the data acquisition was obtained through the datalogger, where they are stored and save the data generated from the experiment in a notepad on the PC, the communication is done through MakerHub where the type of connection and the port to send LabVIEW data to the Arduino card is selected, to determine the tangential curve with the parameters of the experiment, with the objective of applying the first Ziegler-Nichols method, acquiring the K_p, T_i y T_d gains of the closed system, to evaluate the P, PI and PID controllers. To tune the gains of the Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller (PID) the Excel software is used, where the formulas of the first Ziegler-Nichols method are applied, once the gains are adjusted, it is possible to do real-time experiments. With the files stored through the data acquisition system (DAQ), you can evaluate the performance of the controllers with different gains, that is, compare the input and output data.
