use your control panel of choice most have a manual GUI where you can set temperature
eg pronterface or cura

Or use gcode M104 S190 [reprap.org]
threw command line also threw a control panel.

Or if you have an lcd, most have a set temperature option in there also.

It will stop at the desired temperature and apply heat as necessary to maintain that temperature from then on until you issue a command to stop heating.
... if everything is working properly of course smiling smiley
