[x] Get a stepper motor to work properly using the Arduino and be able to rotate it manually

razor7877 commented 5 months ago

A 28BYJ-48 stepper motor was used with a ULN2003 driver module. It is powered with a 5V source. The 4 input pins are connected to pins 8-11 of the Arduino board, and the stepper.h Arduino library is used to get it running.
