Is there a way to run accelstepper faster?
If you’re experienced, sorry for the extra words, but if you’re not familiar with arduino and want to run a stepper motor faster than you currently can with accelstepper, then please ask any questions at all. Accelstepper uses a non-linear acceleration profile, to gradually increase the step rate of your stepper motor.
Is there a way to slow down a stepper motor?
However, there is only a (small) range of speeds wherein the motor is quiet. I’m afraid these vibrations may make my slider setup completely unusable. Gearing isn’t really an option either, due to the lack of space constraints (I want this slider to be lightweight and be able to fit inside a travel suitcase without much trouble.)
How to enable or disable a stepper in accelstepper?
Then the driver is enabled or disabled with calls to stepper1.enableOutputs () and stepper1.disableOutputs (). In practice, you would not disable the driver except for power saving, as the stepper can no longer hold it’s position when the outputs are not enabled. It will lose it’s position.
Is it possible to vary the speed of a stepper?
When I try to vary the speed of the stepper speed through my code, it only marginally reduces in speed (definitely not as slow as I would like), and even when it does, there are a lot of vibrations at those particular speeds. However, there is only a (small) range of speeds wherein the motor is quiet.
What should stepdelay be set to in accelstepper?
StepDelay needs to be set so that it creates a stepping speed approximately equal to the stepping speed that accelstepper leaves off at.
How to calculate acceleration in constantspeed and bounce?
With the help of constantSpeed and Bounce sketch example I got some idea and wrote the following code.
Which is faster stepper run or stepper.run ( )?
As long as the “stuff” doesn’t take long, stepper.run () is run very frequently, and you have smooth stepper operation. But stepper.run () is not a very fast function, and at some point it is the limiting factor! Then, this while loop takes too long.
