Hello! I want to convert a 180 degrees PC steering wheel (that uses a POT) to 900 degrees. Well, I took out a gear mechanism from an old printer wich is perfect and on one of the gears is attached a stepping motor. Since i don t have a lot of experience in arduino I want to ask you if I can make a program that makes the stepping motor to rotate back to the initial position after a certain number of "steps" and what kind of arduino board I need to do this .
Thank you!
You need some kind of programming mechanism to let your Arduino know when the stepper is back to the original position and in the beginning of the program, let the Arduino know that "this" is the original position. Once the original position is identified the program can count the stepper motor steps it commands and keep track of the position of the motor.
