The stepper motor should start sipnnig when sensor distance is <10, but it doesn't, anyone????
#include <AccelStepper.h>
#include <NewPing.h>
#define TRIGGER_PIN 13
#define ECHO_PIN 12
#define MAX_DISTANCE 200
NewPing sonar(TRIGGER_PIN, ECHO_PIN, MAX_DISTANCE);
// Define some steppers and the pins the will use
AccelStepper stepper1(5, 8, 9, 10, 11);
int distancia [20];
void setup()
{
stepper1.setMaxSpeed(1000.0);
stepper1.setAcceleration(1000.0);
Serial.begin(115200);
}
void myDelay(long interval)
{
long init = millis();
while ((millis() - init) <= interval)
{
stepper1.stop();
}
}
void scanear()
{
int uS = sonar.ping();
int espaco = uS / US_ROUNDTRIP_CM ;
while(stepper1.distanceToGo() != 0){
if(espaco<10 ){
stepper1.moveTo(20048);
stepper1.run();
}//if2
}//while
Serial.println(espaco);
}
void loop()
{
scanear();
}

You aren't calling stepper1.run() in the right place - it needs to always be called.

I called it, what would be the right place?

while(stepper1.distanceToGo() != 0){ <<<<<<<<<< relies on .run() being called
if(espaco<10 ){
stepper1.moveTo(20048);
stepper1.run(); <<<<<<<<<<<<<< won't necessarily get called
}//if2
<<<<<<<< move the call here and it will get called everytime.
}//while

May be true but is not very helpful.
Post your latest code !

This program WORKS:
stepper1.moveTo(4096);
stepper1.run();
But when i put conditionals on it, the motor simply doesn't move.
stepper1.moveTo(4096);
stepper1.run();
if(espaco>20){
fazer = 1;
}
if(espaco<20 && espaco !=0 )x++;{
distancia[x] = espaco;
posicao_motor1[x] = stepper1.currentPosition();
fazer = 0;
}while(fazer =1);
Any idea of what is going on and how to fix?
There are no errors at compling, and variables such as "espaco" are ok.

Translate it to english.
Post a schematic.

Well, i'm 100% sure that the wiring is ok, and i'm using a ultrasonic HC-SR04 sensor, "espaco" = space, that is the ultrasonic measuring.
if wou want the full code :
#include <AccelStepper.h>
#include <NewPing.h>
#define TRIGGER_PIN 13
#define ECHO_PIN 12
#define MAX_DISTANCE 200
NewPing sonar(TRIGGER_PIN, ECHO_PIN, MAX_DISTANCE);
// Define some steppers and the pins the will use
AccelStepper stepper1(5, 8, 9, 10, 11);
void setup()
{
stepper1.setMaxSpeed(1000.0);
stepper1.setAcceleration(1000.0);
Serial.begin(115200);
}
void myDelay(long interval)
{
long init = millis();
while ((millis() - init) <= interval)
{
stepper1.stop();
}
stepper1.run();
}
void scanear()
{
int uS = sonar.ping();
int espaco = uS / US_ROUNDTRIP_CM;
boolean fazer = 1;
int x = 0;
int posicao_motor1[20];
int distancia [20];
if(espaco>20){
fazer = 1;
}
if(espaco<20 && espaco !=0 )x++;{
distancia[x] = espaco;
posicao_motor1[x] = stepper1.currentPosition();
fazer = 0;
}while(fazer =1);
}
void loop()
{
scanear();
}

Why are you starting another Thread about the same code as in this Thread
I recognized the strangely named function void myDelay(long interval)
I will ask the Moderator to merge the two Threads otherwise everyon is just wasting their time.
You posted a couple of lines of code
This program WORKS:
stepper1.moveTo(4096);
stepper1.run();
Why don't you post the full working sketch so we can all start from somewhere useful ?
My guess is that you are not using stepper1.run() properly in the code that is causing a problem - though why that should be in a function called myDelay() I have no idea.

if(espaco<20 && espaco !=0 )x++;{
Why is there an open curly brace after the ; that marks the end of the body of the if statement?
}while(fazer =1);
Why is there a while statement after the }? Why are you assigning a value to fazer using a while statement? What are you expecting to do while you are able to assign a value to fazer?

This program WORKS:
first code block
But when i put conditionals on it, the motor simply doesn't move.
second code block in Reply#6]
