Hi, I am trying to control a stepper motor with arduino using A4988 Stepper Motor Driver. I am OK running the motor using Bit-banging Pulse Width Modulation as described in: But my program has other interrupts so I can not use this option and I believe I need to use ATmega PWM registers directly. I am able to use fastpwm to control de dimming of a led for example but I do not know how to control the frequency so I can step the motor at different speeds. This library seems to do what I want by using the function SetPinFrequencySafe but in arduino1.6.7 the installation of this library reports an error of 'invalid library'. Any alternative solutions. PaulS, could you detail why PWM can not be used for stepper motors?

I thought that basically pwm would generate exactly the digital square signal required. See for example: From that link It seems that the Timer1 is another library that could be used for that purpose, although I would like to know your opinion on why it won't work. Free psx iso files. My project involves controlling a stepper motor (changing the speed and direction) from an embedded system (nvidia jetson tk1). Because the jetson is doing other tasks I can not do the control directly so I am using an Arduino as a 'middle man' between the jetson and the polulu A4988 driver. The jetson communicates through the serial port with the Arduino, which in response to the serial commands controls the speed and direction pins of the driver. Preferably, due to size constrains in my project I wanted to use an attiny85 as a replacement for the Arduino using this approach and that is the reason I would need to use softwareserial for the communications. The arduino (and attiny) are able to do the work using the software pwm but whenever I activate software serial it gets screwed up as I showed in my previous post.

I though using a hardware PWM would be the solution but it seems from your comment that it is not the way forward, I would like to know why? Many thanks for your time.

My current imaging rig includes an 8' SCT + 66mm apo + an 80mm apo. Both refractors have Skywatcher 'Autofocuser' focus motors - this is serving me fine at the moment. The SCT has a Meade zero shift focuser on the back.

Stepper

This is basically a Crayford focuser with a built-in DC motor. I am hopefully soon to upgrade from a DSLR to a CCD and I can see a day that approaching when I'm going to look to invoke computer-controlled automated focussing routines. From all the reading I've done this is really only practicable when using stepper motors rather than the DC motors I currently have. My plan would be to slowly replace the current focus motors with Arduino-based stepper motors. As I can't afford to do this all in one go, I thought that my first step could be to get to grips with Arduino-based systems by replacing my present HitecAstro DC focuser controller with the myDCFocuser Arduino-based system. Once I've got the hang of this, I would then add a stepper motor controller to the Arduino and replace my two Skywatcher 'Autofocuser' focus motors with stepper motors.

This would mean using the same Ardiuno to run the DC motor on the Meade focuser and the stepper motors on the refractors (obviously not all at the same time). Is this possible, or would I need a separate Arduino for each focuser or each type of focuser?
