Dear IOT'ers, Maybe someone here can help me also. My problem may be of a silimar one. I have build a chickenbot with stepper motor in it driven on a Adafruit motorshield. over HTTP the command works great, but now i am switching to MQTT. No command seems to work :S finally i found this thread, and ...

Ok, but the release command is also not coming through?

That one has a simple syntax with no parameter!

So something like this? MQTT: ChickenBot/MotorShieldCMD,Stepper,M1 And than with the load: Release or backward,2000,double Cause this does not work with Home Assistant. This is what i have in Home assistant now: - platform: mqtt name: "ChickenBot" state_topic: "/ChickenBot/Button/Stat...

Anyone an idee how the MQTT commands look? I cannot get the module to recognize the commands MotorShieldCMD,<DCMotor>,<Motornumber>,<Forward/Backward/Release>,<Speed> MotorShieldCMD,<Stepper>,<Motornumber>,<Forward/Backward/Release>,<Steps>,<SINGLE/DOUBLE/INTERLEAVE/MICROSTEP>

I have the same problem you describing here.

What did you put into the Rules of the ESPeasy?

Thanx in advance!
Kirelam

Will try thanx!!

No it is a plugin that is in beta.

Works like a charm for me under http. But i am moving to HA so i need to control it through MQTT.

Kind regards,
Kirelam

IOT'er, Anyvbody experience with the Adafruit Motorshield with Stepper driver? I need the Rule for commanding the rotation and the release. I'm guessing that this should be done within 1 or 2 rules in ESPeasy, and kicked of with a MQTT cmd, True? If so what is this Syntax, or how to get it? I manage...

Dear IOT'ers, I want to controll my ADAfruit Motorshield Stepper motor through MQTT. Does anyone know the syntax for this? I am strugling to go from HTTP to MQTT, but it is a harsh mistress. <I Use a Wemos D1 R1 with on top a Adafruit Motorshield 2.0, wich works like a Charm, Through HTML.> Greetz, ...

I promise i will read this forum more often to awnser any questions if needed!

Sorry @TungstenE2, really forgot to read the blog :S I did not use the small D1 Wemos board, i Tried it, but i believe i had a grounding issue, Altough i think it should work! There should be 2 VCC pins on the Driverboard 5 and 3.3V. You should have to look into this then. Remember to use the same g...

Ohw and this ESP8266 controller, because the motor shield fits perfectly on it so you do not have to change the datalogic control on the motor shield, that is a pain in the ass. https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/32758176555.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.3f8a6713kQUHta&algo_pvid=a6d15815-aff5-4844-...

- which motor shield did you use? https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/32898563025.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4do28s0Q - which motor did you use?

I'm at work right now so not a lot of time, But i can give you this in between time. This is the project i used this tech for and the discription tells a little bit about the usage and the sources. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3684827 If there are any questions, please specify them and i will a...

I will share all i have!

Bit busy right now, but i will put all stuff here.

Greetz,
Kirelam

So simply said. No i2c devices AND the hx711?

That is a bummer, but will find another solution!

Here we are again, Aliexpress was fast this time :P the new NEMA17 Stepper motor works like a charm! -The driver on the motorshield does not get hot anymore also!!! (This was the case with the 1,7Amps Steppermotor) -Now when i run the steppermotor a lot it gets warm itself, but this can be solved wi...

HA HA i think i got my problem! The Adafruit motorshield V2.0 supports Stepper motors yes. But not above perpetual power usage. So the Stepper motor cannot be to powerfull. I Bought a NEMA17 3d printer stepper motor. This one has 2.4NM/Cm and a power usage of 1,7A. This seemed to be a bit too much, ...

Dear friends, I am a bit further and i choose the lazy, but working option. -The Adafruit Motor shield V2 is a Arduino form factor with that pin-out, so i thought: Why not buy the Wemos D1 R2 with the same pinout specs. All pin positions work and i do not have to tinker with logic voltages (5 > 3.3V...

Lock the I2C bus? What does that meen, As in not usable for that moment?

I ordered the Wemos motor shield (Thanx) Hope it will support Stepper motor.
If so i will report the whole proces and project as it is here for future review.

good awnser. i wrote it the other way arround. I tried switching them, but then offcourse you get no signal.

So i would like to know if other people have this problem en if so, what did they do to get arround it?

Dear users, I have bought 2 motor shields V2.0 now (Aliexpress versions)(both failed). I tried to use it through I2C to my D1 Mini. To do this i had to cut the logic line to 5v and make connection from the center pad to the 3.3v pad next to it. I got I2C adresses, but there it is! E very time i refr...

Dear ESP'ers, I have a awkward problem. I use a D1 mini as a node for my greenhouse environment. almost every GPIO port is used without any problem with sensors and 1 relay 4 channel. But if i connect the relay, the ESP will not boot. I discovered that the ESP works fine with the relay if i connect ...

It works now!!

Thanx People!!

Solution: never use "/"

After your post i tried this, but it didn't change anyting.
Do you, or anyone else have a working setup like this, where i can take over the value's?

I don't know what to change from here anymore.

A friend of mine fixen this problem!

Het flashed a different, for example onder version on the esp. After that he flashed it back to r78.

Now it works again!

Dear ESP'ers, I'm using a rather simple setup with the following components. -Wemos D1 Mini -DHT22 -2 Channel Relay Now i got the relay, the display and the Sensor to work fine, except i want the reading visable on the LCD as told on (http://www.esp8266.nu/index.php/LCDDisplay). I can get the IP vis...

So place the steps: (Correct me if i'm wrong)

-While not powered connect RX and TX together.
-Now BOOT the ESP8266

This trick should do the job?
