Operation
The default 'Activate Temperature' checkbox is on.  When it is on, the functions described below will work, when it is off, nothing will be done.
 
Settings
Rate
The default cooling rate and heating rate for the extruder were both been derived from bothacker's graph at:

Cooling Rate
Default is three degrees Celcius per second.
 
Defines the cooling rate of the extruder.
 
Heating Rate
Default is ten degrees Celcius per second.
 
Defines the heating rate of the extruder.
 
Temperature
Base Temperature
Default for ABS is two hundred degrees Celcius.
 
Defines the raft base temperature.
 
Interface Temperature
Default for ABS is two hundred degrees Celcius.
 
Defines the raft interface temperature.
 
Object First Layer Infill Temperature
Default for ABS is 195 degrees Celcius.
 
Defines the infill temperature of the first layer of the object.
 
Object First Layer Perimeter Temperature
Default for ABS is two hundred and twenty degrees Celcius.
 
Defines the edge temperature of the first layer of the object.
 
Object Next Layers Temperature
Default for ABS is two hundred and thirty degrees Celcius.
 
Defines the temperature of the next layers of the object.
 
Support Layers Temperature
Default for ABS is two hundred degrees Celcius.
 
Defines the support layers temperature.
 
Supported Layers Temperature
Default for ABS is two hundred and thirty degrees Celcius.
 
Defines the temperature of the supported layers of the object, those layers which are right above a support layer.
 
Examples
The following examples add temperature information to the file Screw Holder Bottom.stl.  The examples are run in a terminal in the folder which contains Screw Holder Bottom.stl and temperature.py.
 
> python temperature.py
This brings up the temperature dialog.
 
> python temperature.py Screw Holder Bottom.stl
The temperature tool is parsing the file:
Screw Holder Bottom.stl
..
The temperature tool has created the file:
.. Screw Holder Bottom_temperature.gcode
