Arduino Tutorial 28- Understanding How to Use a Stepper Motor

Let's see how to control a stepper motor using the Arduino.
We show how to operate the motor in both directions and how to control the speed.

First video where is all explain step by step - thanks, it works well

[darkooslovcan]

Incredibly simple explanations, which is very difficult to find on the internet these days. Well done.

THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO I'VE SEEN ABOUT HOW TO USE ANY ARDUINO DEVICE!!

[imvincible]

Most of my parts were different but the tutorial was so good I could make it work. Thank you!

[olivermurray]

Clear and concise. I set my stepper while watching your video and it worked 🙂, thank you for sharing

[DGbert]

Thanks so much. This really helped me. I was activating the coils in the order 11, 10, 9, 8 from following other programs but it didn't work. Using your 8, 10, 9, 11 worked perfectly. Why does a sequential order not work?

Doesn't the starting current affect the arduino power pin connected to the driver??
It should not tolerate more than 20mA

[bouaakilikram]

Very well explained! Thank you, just wanna know if using that code, will the motor continue rotating endlessly ?

[ForYourConsideration]

Very nice! Thank you for creating such a helpful video. Your explanations were very clear for a beginner like me.

[sharanamuram]

what to do if need the motor to rotate in constant rpm ?

[aparnachavan]

I tried with this but my stepper motor doesn't work, one more thing do I need to use the way you have used some pin on it

How can we control the stepper motor using RC remote

[hnfzjip]

Hi, Love your video... I'm very new about this kind of programming... I have a question: is necessary to connect the ground and the 5v between Arduino and the driver?

[peterbenbow]

please just add a link for the code
It never works just showing us it'

[frankbonsignore.RochesterNY]

Help! My setup only runs clockwise and doesn't reverse! Everything is just as you wrote it, Paul. Also, I can run mine without the power supply.

[volvo]

Could you please give me some advice? Is it possible for the engine to work even without a computer? I need it to keep spinning at 20 rpm. It is possible?

[Rajatparakkal]

when i put a negative number the motor is not turning the opposite direction whereas going in the same clockwise direction towards the angle. Is there a solution??

[chellalialhcen]

Hello dear bro,
i followed this video step by step but when i send the code to my board, the board disconnect from the PC. notice that i have "Az-Delivery ESP32 Wroom" .
i thought that the Stepper motor absorbs the energy.

to solve this problem i brought an external enrgy source (Breadboard Power Supply), finally worked well but,
i got the same problem that "Rajat parkkal" got, the motor don't rotate to the other way i mean the negative orientation.
i'll be thankful to help us solving this problem.

*Notice: i'm fresh in Arduino and i have no idea befor this is my first steps on this world.

[kenneth]

why does INT 1 and INT 2 stay on after the first command and only turn on after a reset?

[joochiunglee]

can u teach how to do stepper motor analog rpm gauge diagram and thank you
