Joystick Button

Projects Programming
11

At this time my code is like this but still only outputting the number 1, i press the Switch and it still outputs the 1

// include Arduino stepper motor library
#include <Stepper.h>
#include <LiquidCrystal.h>

// define Button
const int buttonPin = 2;
int buttonState = 0;

// LCD Config
const int rs = 12, en = 13, d4 = 4, d5 = 5, d6 = 6, d7 = 7;
LiquidCrystal lcd(rs, en, d4, d5, d6, d7);

// define number of steps per revolution
#define STEPS 32
 
// define stepper motor control pins
#define IN1  11
#define IN2  10
#define IN3   9
#define IN4   8
 
// initialize stepper library
Stepper stepper(STEPS, IN4, IN2, IN3, IN1);
 
// joystick pot output is connected to Arduino A0
#define joystick  A0
 
void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);
  
  pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT_PULLUP);       // the switch pin
  
  lcd.begin(16, 2);
  lcd.print("Test");
  delay(3000);

}
 
void loop()
{
  
  buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin); //Reads the state of the pin
  Serial.print(" Button State is: ");
  Serial.println(buttonState);

  if (buttonState = 1) {
  lcd.print(1);
  delay(100);
  buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin);
  }
  else {
  lcd.print(2);
  delay(100);
  }

  
// read analog value from the potentiometer
  int val = analogRead(joystick);
 
  // if the joystic is in the middle ===> stop the motor
  if(  (val > 500) && (val < 523) )
  {
    digitalWrite(IN1, LOW);
    digitalWrite(IN2, LOW);
    digitalWrite(IN3, LOW);
    digitalWrite(IN4, LOW);
  }
 
  else
  {
    // move the motor in the first direction
    while (val >= 523)
    {
      // map the speed between 5 and 500 rpm
      int speed_ = map(val, 523, 1023, 5, 500);
      // set motor speed
      stepper.setSpeed(speed_);

      stepper.step(1);

    }
 
    // move the motor in the other direction
    while (val <= 500)
    {
      // map the speed between 5 and 500 rpm
      int speed_ = map(val, 500, 0, 5, 500);
      // set motor speed
      stepper.setSpeed(speed_);
 
      // move the motor (1 step)
      stepper.step(-1);
 
      val = analogRead(joystick);
    }
