/*************************************************************************************************************************************
Project: Tuning the Magnetic loop capacitor remotely using Wifi
Details: This project is based on the ESP8266 Micro Controller, DRV8255 stepper motor driver, bipolar stepper motor and the Blynk App.
I built a Magnetic Loop Antenna, and my idea was to control the tuning capacitor remotely, using Wifi.
The Blynk App
-------------
In the Blynk app, I added five virtual buttons:
V0 - Tune Left
V1 - Tune Right
V2 - Fine Tune Left
V3 - Fine Tune Right
V4 - Scan
DRV8825
-------
The DRV8825 is a smart motor driver that can be used with normal steps and even with micro-steps, and that can be controlled by
the driver's pins M0, M1, M2. In my case I wanted to use the 1/32 micro-steps, and these are the speeds that you will see in the code.
More details about this driver can be found here: https://www.pololu.com/product/2133
Arduino IDE
-----------
When you are using the Arduino IDE, you will probalby, need to install the Blynk library, so please follow this procedure:
From the Arduino IDE menu:
1. Go to "Sketch" --> "Include Library" --> "Manage Libraries"
2. Search for "Blynk", and install it
Please feel free to change that to your own project use case.
Please visit my YouTube channel to see this project in action.
Are you allowed to use this code anywhere? Or change the code? - Yes! You are free to do that! Enjoy!
The best "Thank you" will be to subscribe to my channel and "like" the video - Thanks in advance!
