Hi, can you please add the detail and specs about material used in description of video. Like Motor (voltage/current) rating, battery (voltage/current) rating, Type of Arduino used etc. Thanks.

Does the baud rate need to be that high or can it be 9600?

This is what I needed to know, thanks a lot. I'm building a solar tracking system but didn't know how to get info about the photoresistors. If you had any code for solar tracking using photoresistors and a linear actuator I'd really appreciate it.

can i stop the motor at specific angles ?

This is cool!!! Thank you.

Banger of a tutorial !

Thank you so much for the content 🙏🏻 I want to ask, can the program be used if using a 3 phase AC motor and using a relay as the contactor? Thank you in advance🙏🏻

As others have said your code explanation is excellent! I am thinking of implementing this to control three ball valves - I just need to know do stepper motors have free movement when unpowered? I ask this as I need to consider how I can provide manual override in the event of power failure or other faults. In your opinion would stepper motors be suitable for my use case? Thanks

Is there a way for us to find The script for your arduino program, so we can copy and paste? The library I downloaded only shows "blocking", unlike in the video's "blocking_fixed_position"

So, if I want to run DC motor follow a sinewave. What I have to do?

Thx bro

very helpfull!!!

Great video, well explained! Using PID, can you achieve absolute position control with these encoded motors? Thanks!

I am just getting my feet wet with this, and this video is incredibly helpful!

thanks so much its realy useful

The code for those who want to try it out : import serial import matplotlib.pyplot as plt from matplotlib.animation import FuncAnimation import csv # Constants SERIAL_PORT = 'COM4' BAUD_RATE = 115200 # Initialize serial connection ser = serial.Serial(SERIAL_PORT, BAUD_RATE) # Initialize empty list to store data x_vals = [] sensorValue_data = [] # Create a function to raed and process data from Arduino def read_and_process_data(): line = ser.readline().decode('utf-8').strip() sensorValues = line.split(',') x_vals.append(float(sensorValues[0])) sensorValue_data.append(int(sensorValues[1])) # Print the received values print(f'Time: {sensorValues[0]}, Sensor 1: {sensorValues[1]}') # Creat a function to update the plot def update_plot(frame): read_and_process_data() plt.cla() plt.plot(x_vals, sensorValue_data, label='Sensor') plt.xlabel('Time') plt.ylabel('Sensor value') plt.legend() # Creat a function to save data to a CSV file when the plot window is closed def on_close(event): with open('arduino_data.csv', 'w', newline='') as csvfile: writer = csv.writer(csvfile) writer.writerow(['Time', 'Sensor']) for x, s1 in zip(x_vals, sensorValue_data): writer.writerow([x, s1]) # Register the callback function for when the plot window is closed fig, ax = plt.subplots() fig.canvas.mpl_connect('close_event', on_close) ani = FuncAnimation(fig, update_plot, interval=10) plt.show()

Thank you so so so much !! This is exactly what I needed, short and effective, really good tutorial.

thanks

Is anything like this able to be done with an elrs rc link?

Thanks bro Does anyone know what is the x axis, like is it milliseconds or is it related to the baud rate

Thank you!

Thank you! Phenomenal video! I love the style I love the explanations, to the point and easy to follow!! You may was to consider adding to the end of the ser.close() in the in_close() function. My system doesn't automatically close serial communication and this may save some headaches for other viewers as well!

since arduino is running before the python script activates the time stamps do not start at 0. is there a way to make the timestamp start at zero once the python code starts?

Thank you!

How many ampere need when I used two Nema 17 with load

There must be a simple way t change this. The plotter this way looks wrong for any application. My version is 2.3.2 and it's still like this.

Where to connect the signal wire to Arduino Mega?

Lovely video! I was wondering if this code is compatible with an Arduino leonardo?

How fast can the GUI keep up with the data? I tried using pyqtgraph, using one thread to parse the serial data, and another thread for the gui updating. However, my sensor transmits at 115kbps continuously, and the GUI starts to lag behind after just a few seconds! I imagine this is such a common application that surely someone has figured it out. Haven't yet tried VizhPort ... but on the off chance that python isn't the best suited, I was thinking fl_charts and flutter!

Thanks, really good !

on minute 9:45 u said abaout 0 and 1023 on analog read,the funcition of 0 and 1023 for what???i'm still laerning bout that

Woooow, this is the best out there on stepper control using Accel. How can i connect with you for further talks on some projects we can collaborate on. LinkedIn, Email, ????

sorry for my language before. But what if using nodemcu (esp8266) ? is the code still same ?

Ok

Question: this is a 1.5A stepper motor and from what I have read so far you need to double it for microstepping, then there are 3 motors so I get a total amperage of 9amps for the system and you said you are keeping the amperage at 1 amp because you are using a breadboard. How are you getting away with only 1 amp?

Hi, Is it possible to have the graph scaled to 600 points rather than the 1 point on the axis. So the incoming data is seen to the left of the graph(like the older IDE version seen in video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PPYMEBa0Vys.htmlsi=__NaLmAU9nlpRXpA&t=1673). I don't want the automatic update of the X-axis. Thanks

I am trying to control two stepper motors using arduino uno and tb6600 motor drivers and control them using Radio controller . However when i run my code only one stepper motor work while the other doesn't receiver input signals from transmitter

Exactly what I was looking for. Perfect! Thank you!

Thank you for this video. It is helpful.

What is the advantage/disadvantage of using external pull up resistor other than the internal one?

I have to run the python file when the Arduino starts running?

link of the code !

Avrei bisogno di leggere 6 canali da un ricevitore RC, come devo modificare la Sketch?

I have a question, I'm using a drv8825-ish in 1\32 micro step, and the motor moves terribly slow. What can I do to make it go faster? My ultimate goal is just a constant rotation speed which varies per motor so that I can use it in my drawing machine

How did you get it!??? Thank you very much!!!!

volatile long StartTime = 0; volatile long CurrentTime = 0; volatile long Pulses = 0; int PulseWidth void setup() { Serial.begin(9600); pinMode(RCPin, INPUT_PULLUP); attachInterrupt(digtalPinToInterrupt(RCPin),PulseTimer,CHANGE); } void loop() { if (Pulses < 2000){ PulseWidth = Pulses; } Serial.println(PulseWidth); } void PulseTimer(){ CurrentTime = micros(); if (CurrentTime > StartTime){ Pulses = CurrentTime - StartTime; StartTime = CurrentTime; } }

Excellent video - Thanks! Consider using unsigned math on micros() it simplifies the code (no if() needed). Consider a small state machine in the inyerrupts. On a rising edge save time and on falling edge compute delta and set a new system state. Thid avoids some complications and can help clarify the interface.

if yes can you provide the circuit diagram and code for it

can we control the position of stepper motor with tb6600 and potentiometer

Please could you release code for this that uses Rc PWM for the control input? My personal use requirement is 2 Rc channel input for 2 stepper controls so this would work great for me if I could use Rc input to control it. Steve.
