Participated in the Makerspace Contest 2017

In this tutorial, we will learn how to control a small servo-motor. If you want to control the position of a mechanism, just have to use this tutorial. Good for beginners who want to make stuff move without building a motor controller with feedback & gearbox, especially since it will fit in small places

Parts Required

To build the global setup you must have the following parts:

• ESP8266 NodeMCU v1.0;
• Micro-USB to USB cable;
• Servo sg90;
• Male to male jumper wires;
• 1 Breadboard;

Note: You do not need to have a NodeMCU board nor an ESP8266 to follow this tutorial. I am using this board because it is very famous and also because, I will post future tutorials using wifi communications. In order to use other boards, you just have to change the pin number.

Servo SG90

This SG90 is a very good quality motor widely used in RC aeromodelling projects, Arduino, Raspberry etc. Is tiny and lightweight, but with high output power. A Servo can rotate approximately 180 degrees (90 in each direction) and works just like another Servo.

Where we have the servo especifications:

• Vcc voltage: 3,0 – 7,2V;
• Degree of freedom/rotation: 180 graus;
• Speed: 0,12 seg/60º without load;
• Torque: 1,2 kg.cm (4,8V) and 1,6 kg.cm (6,0V);
• Temperature: -30C ~ +60C;
• Dimentions: 32 x 30 x 12mm;
• Weight: 9g.

The servo is very simple to operate, but it is not just plugged and play. In figure 2, we have the servo-motor pinout. The red one is for Vcc, the black/brown is for Gnd and the yellow/orange is for the signal that controls the position.

The signal that we send to the servo is called a PPM signal is one of the radio receiver protocols used in RC Devices to transfer data. It is a signal similar to PWM, but with some differences. In figure 3 we can see an example of a PPM signal used by our servo motor and the times required to build the signal.

To generate this signal, we need to choose a pin in our NodeMcu, that support PWM. Despite the fact, that this signal is not a PWM, the PPM signal uses the same timers that are present in PWM pins, like in figure 4.

Circuit

Connect the signal cable (Yellow) to GPIO pin 2 (D4) because it is a PWM pin, Vcc (Red) to 3.3V and GND (Black), as figure 5. Everything will be powered from your PC using micro-USB to USB cable. In this configuration, the servo will be powered directly from the GPIO 2 pin with 3.3V. It is low voltage level but it works. All the current for the will be drawn from the board, and since each GPIO delivers only no more than a few mA, the torque can be low. Let’s try it.

Coding

Copy the main sketch below to your Arduino IDE project and save it. The Servo.h library is already included in the Arduino IDE. Have fun!!


#include < Servo.h> Servo servo; int val; void setup() { Serial.begin(115200); servo.attach(2); // attaches the servo on pin D4 to the servo object servo.write(0); } void loop() { // main program loop servo.write(90); delay(1000); for(val = 0; val <= 180; val++){ servo.write(180); // sets the servo position according to the scaled value Serial.print("Angle:"); Serial.println(val); delay(1000); // waits for the servo to get there } for(val = 180; val >= 0; val--){ servo.write(0); // sets the servo position according to the scaled value Serial.print("Angle:"); Serial.println(val); delay(1000); // waits for the servo to get there } }


In this tutorial ESP8266 we will see How to control Servo motor using NodeMCU web server? where the position of the Servo Motor can be controlled through a Web Page (within the same WiFi Network).

Introduction

Servo Motors are one of the most commonly used motors in both industries and DIY Projects.

I’ll be creating a simple Web Page (HTML) with a circular knob. When this web page is accessed from a laptop or mobile phone that is connected to the same WiFi Network as the ESP8266, you can control the position of the Servo Motor by adjusting the knob.

Web Controlled Servo using ESP8266

Normally, in order to control a Servo Motor with Arduino (for example), all you need is a Servo Motor, Arduino and a Potentiometer. Depending on the position of the POT, the PWM value of the Servo Motor input changes and consequently the position of the Servo Motor’s shaft changes.

In case of a Web Controlled Servo Motor using ESP8266, ESP8266 drives the Servo Motor but the input isn’t from a POT but a Web Page we created with AJAX.

The slider in the web page sends the angle values and is received by the NodeMCU, which acts as a Web Server. The NodeMCU, upon receiving the value, transmits corresponding PWM to servo, which then changes the position of the Servo Motor according to the value.

One important thing to remember here is that both the Server and client should be on the same network i.e. the ESP8266, which acts as the Server, and the Laptop (or a Mobile Phone), which is the client, must be connected to the same WiFi network.

Circuit Diagram

Working of Web Controlled Servo using ESP8266

Let us now see the working of the Web Controlled Servo using ESP8266. After making all the connections as per the circuit diagram, upload the NodeMCU code.

After the code is uploaded, if you open the serial monitor, you can see the status of the ESP8266 WiFi Module. After all the initialization steps are done (set mode to Station mode, connect ESP8266 to WiFi and start web server), you can proceed for Web Control.

Now Get IP address of ESP8266 from serial monitor and open it using any web browser. If everything is right, when you change the position of the slider, the position of the servo Motor will be changed.

Applications

The idea behind Web Controlled Servo using ESP8266 is to implement a web-controlled device (in this case, a Servo Motor) i.e. to control a motor through internet.

This application can be further extended to more advanced and complex projects like controlling a Robot from the Internet.

In this tutorial, we will learn how to use a Servo Motor.

A servomotor is a rotary actuator or linear actuator that allows for precise control of angular or linear position, velocity and acceleration.[1] It consists of a suitable motor coupled to a sensor for position feedback. It also requires a relatively sophisticated controller, often a dedicated module designed specifically for use with servomotors.

Servomotors are not a specific class of motor although the term servomotor is often used to refer to a motor suitable for use in a closed-loop control system.

Programming

This is the time to setup Arduino with NodeMCU and Servo Motor.Download the code from this Github link. Once downloaded, open it up in the Arduino IDE. Then Create a new sketch and hit Upload.

Program working#include

// Include the Servo library

Servo servo;

void setup() {

servo.attach(2); // We need to attach the servo to the used pin number

servo.write(0);

delay(2000);

void loop() {

servo.write(0); // Make servo go to 0 degrees

delay(1000);

servo.write(90); // Make servo go to 90 degrees

delay(1000);

servo.write(180); // Make servo go to 180 degrees

delay(1000);

Once the code is uploaded, the motor starts to function as shown in below diagram.

Hardware components

Software apps and online services

In this project we use ESP8266 in its NodeMCU form factor as a webserver and to create a webform to control the current position of the servo motor.

All the data of the webserver are saved on the SPIFFS memory of ESP8266.

What is SPIFFS?

SPIFFS is the original filesystem and is ideal for space and RAM constrained applications that utilize many small files and care about static and dynamic wear levelling and don’t need true directory support. Filesystem overhead on the flash is minimal as well. On the NodeMCU we have 4MB of flash out of which we can the size of the SPIFFS filesystem. In this project all the webserver files including html, css, and javascript are saved on a folder named data which is the folder name required for uploading to ESP8266 with SPIFFS uploader.

I have a detailed tutorial about it in another project. Check it out.

Step 5: Coding Time

The next step is to write some code to control the Servo.

Download the "Servo.ino" file and open it up in the Arduino IDE. Then Create a new sketch and paste the code below in the arduino IDE and hit Upload.

#include

Servo servo;

void setup() {

servo.attach(2); //D4

servo.write(0);

delay(2000);

void loop() {

servo.write(90);

delay(1000);

servo.write(0);

delay(1000);

The code will take a few minutes to upload and then you should see the Servo changing angle from 0° to 90° at the interval set in the code.

You can tinker with it if you like, or just use it as it is.

ESP8266 with servo motor Working

The main advantage of using a servo motor is that we can rotate it in any desired direction as per our needs.

A servo motor can rotate in very small as well as very large angles that are specified by us in the code.

• when we make this nodemcu with servo motor We use to attach a function to specify the pin of the nodemcu on which the signal pin of the servo motor is connected.

• The servo motor first comes to the zero position of the shaft and then after a delay of a second,

• it will move the shaft to the middle position that is ninety degrees. A

• gain after a delay of a second, the shaft will move to the position of the one-eighty degree.

• We use the write function to move the shaft of the servo motor.

• You can modify the values of the position according to you in the code.

You can also check the Robotic arm using servo motors made by us.

Two Types of Servo Motors

There are two types of servo motors that are available and used in the industrial field.

First is the AC servo motor. This type of servo is currently used today by most companies. AC servo motors are mostly used in industrial fields. AC servo motors are AC motors that rely on encoders. These types of servo motors work through controllers providing feedback and closed-loop control. They are known to function at a high accuracy and are easily controllable.

Second is the DC servo motor. These kind of servo motors were used in the past by Fuji Electric but are rarely used nowadays, as AC servo motors are easier to use, more effective, advanced, and reliable.

Step 3: Download Arduino IDE

To get started we need to download the Arduino IDE (Integrated Development Environment) and some necessary drivers.

1. To download the software head over to the Arduino site: https://www.arduino.cc

Mechanism

A servomotor is a closed-loop servomechanism that uses position feedback to control its motion and final position. The input to its control is a signal (either analogue or digital) representing the position commanded for the output shaft.

The motor is paired with some type of encoder to provide position and speed feedback. In the simplest case, only the position is measured. The measured position of the output is compared to the command position, the external input to the controller. If the output position differs from that required, an error signal is generated which then causes the motor to rotate in either direction, as needed to bring the output shaft to the appropriate position. As the positions approach, the error signal reduces to zero and the motor stops.

Purpose

Servo motors or “servos”, as they are known, are electronic devices and rotary or linear actuators that rotate and push parts of a machine with precision. Servos are mainly used on angular or linear position and for specific velocity, and acceleration.

Companies heavily use servo motors because of how compact and potent it is. Despite its size, it generates quite the amount of power and is known to be incredibly energy-efficient.

Most of the companies that use servos are manufacturing companies that need it to position control surfaces and rotate objects at precise angles and distances. Most of the companies that use servo motors are manufacturing companies that use machines with servo motors.

• The servo motor has three wires,
• two for the power and one for the control signal.
• You have to connect these three wires with the pins of the Nodemcu.
• Connect the red wire with the 3.3 volts pin of the nodemcu.
• Join the brown wire of the servo motor with the GND pin of the nodemcu.
• Connect the signal wire (orange wire) of the servo motor with the digital-3 pin of the nodemcu.
• After completing the connections use a USB cable to power the nodemcu so that the servo motor starts moving.

PCBWay PCB Prototyping Services

I have assembled the whole circuit on a breadboard. As you know breadboard assembly is not effective for this type of projects. So, PCBWay offers Rapid PCB Prototyping for Your Research Work. I personally, recommend PCBWay because you can get your first-try boards right in 24 hours!

The prototyping stage is the most critical period of time for engineers, students, and hobbyists. PCBWay not only makes your boards quick but also makes your job right as well as cost-effective. This greatly reduces your cost and shortens the time for developing your electronic products.

PCBWay can provide 2 Layer PCBs to highly advanced HDI and flex boards. Even though the PCBs they produce differ a lot regarding functionality and areas of use. I am impressed with the quality of the boards, the delivery time, and the cost-effectiveness.

Items that Use Servo Motors

Servo motors are utilized by items that are used every day. Home electronic devices like DVD and Blu-ray Disc players use servos to extract and retract disc trays.

Automobiles also use servo motors. In modern cars, servo motors are used to control its speed. When stepping on the gas pedal, it sends electrical signals to the car’s computer. The computer then processes that information and sends a signal to the servo attached to the throttle to adjust the engine speed. Even commercial aircrafts also make use of servos to push and pull everything within the plane.

They are also used for novelty items such as remote-controlled and scale-sized toy cars, toy airplanes, toy helicopters, and toy robots. Servos are especially helpful for radio-controlled airplanes to position control surfaces.

But servos are mostly used for industrial purposes. Important industries such as robotics, pharmaceutics, food services and in-line manufacturing also make use of servos.

Servos are also most-suited for electrically operated pieces of machinery such as elevators, rudders, walking robots, and operating grippers.

Step 2: Hardware Description

What is a Breadboard?

Its a prototyping platform, where you can plug components and remove them easily. Please refer to the photo to see how its made inside. There is usually 2 bands on each sides indicating the power rails. Its made to easily connect all of the (-) and (+) together.

What is a Servo?

Servo motors are great devices that can turn to a specified angle or called position.

Usually, they have a servo arm that can turn 180 degrees. Using the NodeMCU, we can control a servo to go to a specified position. As simple as that! Here we will see how to connect a servo motor and then how to turn it to different positions.

Connection to Servo

The next job is to connect your servo motor. There are two common types of servo:

1. White - Red - Black wired servo
2. Orange - Red - Brown wired servo

If your servo has White - Red - Black wires, then connect it as follows

• White wire connects to Digital pin D4
• Black wire connects to GND pin
• Red wire connects to 3V3 pin

If your servo has Orange - Red - Brown wires, then connect it as follows

• Orange wire connects to Digital pin D4.
• Brown wire connects to GND pin
• Red wire connects to 3V3 pin

Step 2: Hardware Description

What is a Breadboard?

Its a prototyping platform, where you can plug components and remove them easily. Please refer to the photo to see how its made inside. There is usually 2 bands on each sides indicating the power rails. Its made to easily connect all of the (-) and (+) together.

What is a Servo?

Servo motors are great devices that can turn to a specified angle or called position.

Usually, they have a servo arm that can turn 180 degrees. Using the NodeMCU, we can control a servo to go to a specified position. As simple as that! Here we will see how to connect a servo motor and then how to turn it to different positions.

Connection to Servo

The next job is to connect your servo motor. There are two common types of servo:

1. White - Red - Black wired servo
2. Orange - Red - Brown wired servo

If your servo has White - Red - Black wires, then connect it as follows

• White wire connects to Digital pin D4
• Black wire connects to GND pin
• Red wire connects to 3V3 pin

If your servo has Orange - Red - Brown wires, then connect it as follows

• Orange wire connects to Digital pin D4.
• Brown wire connects to GND pin
• Red wire connects to 3V3 pin

Step 5: Coding Time

The next step is to write some code to control the Servo.

Download the "Servo.ino" file and open it up in the Arduino IDE. Then Create a new sketch and paste the code below in the arduino IDE and hit Upload.

#include

Servo servo;

void setup() {

servo.attach(2); //D4

servo.write(0);

delay(2000);

void loop() {

servo.write(90);

delay(1000);

servo.write(0);

delay(1000);

The code will take a few minutes to upload and then you should see the Servo changing angle from 0° to 90° at the interval set in the code.

You can tinker with it if you like, or just use it as it is.

Introduction

Hey geeks, hope you are doing fine. Are you familiar with the working of a servo motor?

If not then this article is for you in which we are going to teach you how to Control servo motor with esp8266 using a nodemcu IoT development board.

Servo motor is different from an ordinary DC motor as it does not rotate continuously. You can also read our article on servo motor in which we explain the features and specifications of a servo motor.

It has an extra wire for the signal which is used to rotate the shaft in a specific direction. Also, do check out more such amazing projects on IoT and Arduino.

The detailed circuit diagram and code for the project are given below. The servo motor can also work well with the other microcontroller boards like Arduino and Raspberry pi, we have our articles on them also.

in this ESP8266 with servo motor tutorial we are going to explain how to work.
