Curtain Control Node.

@barduino I tried downloading the code, it works. Anyways I am pasting the code below.
For end stops I have not yet decided. I had some Ideas of using Hall effect sensor on both ends and a small piece of magnet in the string to detect ends or Maybe use stop switches. Not sure but will have to try both and see which works the best.
I am yet to clean the code I have some debugging serial prints in code which will remove once finalized.

I'm just curious, maybe its the arduino IDE version or something.
I'm using 1.6.4 and I get this:
However opening with a text editor is fine:
Cheers
@barduino Seems like the IDE. Open any example MySensors Sketch. Delete the contents from sketch and copy paste from my sketch. I guess that should work.
Are you able to compile any other sketch in Arduino?

@AWI Are you able to share the sketch you used with the UL2003 driver board? I have tried to combine the MySensors servo sketch with other arduino only sketches utilizing the UL2003, but without luck. Thanks.

@patchmaster I used the relay sketch and modified it to my needs. Sorry but I dont have any sketch for ULN2003. :disappointed:

@Tore-André-Rosander are you using the development branch? The errors seem to indicate that is the case.
@AWI Thank you, that helped :)
I now have it up and running.But how do i connect and use this with a controller (like Domoticz)?
I use an ESP gateway (from the dev branch) and the curtain node is connected and showing up in domoticz.
But how do i make domoticz send commands to the curtain node?All i get when adding the curtain node both as on/off button and blinds in domoticz is "unreconized" in the curtain serial monoitor.

@Tore-André-Rosander I have defined it as "Blinds Percentage" in Domoticz. This send the V_STATUS and V_PERCENTAGE messages where the node should respond to...

This is what i get in serial monitor when i use the "up" "down" buttons for blinds percentage in domoticz.

I have not written this sketch as a complete S_COVER implementation. Only the V_PERCENTAGE part (not V_UP/V_DOWN). If you define it in Domoticz as "Blinds percentage" (see my previous post) it will work. Sorry for the confusion.

@AWI Seems like my problem is with Domoticz itselfe.
I have the same problem as described in this post https://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=7748 -

I have the same problem as described in this post https://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=7748@Tore-André-Rosander You can probably solve it by deleting the sensor in Domoticz and let the sketch present itself as S_DIMMER (and use another sensor id)

Maybe its because i have not calibrated it? I dont have any pushbuttons laying around, so im gonna make one with some wires. But i see that there is two pins defined as buttons. Should i use the buttonPin1 as VCC?
So it would look something like buttonPin1 -> buttonPin2 -> button -> gnd?

@Tore-André-Rosander You can ignore buttonpin2. Just connect your "button" to buttonpin1 and ground.

Looks good. I am curious to see the details... jealous for the speed :runner: your curtain is moving.
I have been working on a similar project last week. The mechanics and ´looks´ are the most difficult part for me.
For now I have used a ´tuned´ cheap & small stepper which makes it slooow but effective ;-) The rail and mounting is standard IKEA. The pro-mini has the jModule attached. Works like a charm (/snail)!
-
@AWI I'm curious where you got the rails for the curtain. I wasn't been able to find them, but stumbled on this topic.
-
I'm currently working on a similar project, only I got started with 24V DC motors that I got from my work (left overs from a test project) These motors are very strong (way way over rated) and have a big gearbox what unfortunately makes the movement a bit slow.
I started off with 1 motor to move 2 curtains at the same time, but will change this to 2 motors for either side since the better half of me likes to control the curtains separately in case she only wants to close 1.
Next to the automation there will also be a manual control switch be hidden behind the curtains in case the node is down and I'm not at home to fix the issue...
all running on an ESP8266 (ESP-12e) unit to have it over WiFi and have enough ioCurrently the test setup is working fine and I'm ordering parts to start implementing this a bit bigger in the first room. the test setup I made with some old wood 1 meter of rail and a few old rugs as curtains...
I use a GT2 timing belt that is commently used for 3D printers and pully's are widely available as well as the belts in different lengths (I order them on rolls of 10 meters) and attached the timing belt to a carriage that is normally to pull the curtains with a rod.
the motor is mounted on a bracket with currently 2 end stop switches for open and close (but will be 1 switch for open and 1 for close in the final solution)
resulting in driving the curtain from 1 side
electronics are working fine now and need to be ported to a test print and later to a real PCB design
