<p>The thermistor of the hotend of my printer broke, at the moment I have no way to replace it, due to the global situation with the virus.
In my hands I have one of these <a href="https://www.mpja.com/download/rex-c100.pdf" rel="nofollow noreferrer">industrial PIDs</a> which is Temperature controller+K-type couple+SSR.
Is there a way to disable the PID in Marlin and start printing manually when the PID reaches the desired temperature? I just need it for PLA right now.
This way I can use the printer at least until I can replace the thermistor</p>
