OnStep Configuration, Flashing & Stepper Driver Adjustment

I built the MaxESP3 OnStep controller to enable me to get into astrophotography on a budget and added motors to my EQ-5 mount (see previous videos). This video continues my journey through the OnStep process and is part 3 of 3 videos. In this one I go through the process of configuring the OnStep files and flashing the firmware onto the controller. Also in this video are instructions on adjusting the stepper motor drivers. Use this video alongside the instructions linked below. __________________________________________________________________________ See the main OnStep wiki pages here: https://onstep.groups.io/g/main/wiki These build instructions for the MaxESP3 include abridged flashing instructions : https://www.stmbluepillkits.com/p/how-to.html "Flashing the firmware" on Wiki : https://onstep.groups.io/g/main/wiki/3915 Specifically for the ESP32 : https://onstep.groups.io/g/main/wiki/32775 Other links in this video are reached from within the above pages. __________________________________________________________________________ If you think my content is worth a small tip you could perhaps buy me a coffee? https://buymeacoffee.com/cheapasstro As with superthanks, I will credit anyone that donates. __________________________________________________________________________ Chapters : 00:00 Intro 00:38 About this video 03:01 Step1 - Install & Configure the Arduino IDE 05:00 A word of warning (USE WIKI) 06:00 Step 2 - Getting the OnStep firmware 07:50 A quick recap 08:43 Step 3 - Preliminary Firmware Configuration 13:44 Step 4 - Getting SmartWebServer (SWS) 14:47 Step 5 - Flashing the ESP8266 with SWS 16:56 Step 6 - Flashing the ESP32 with OnStep 20:35 Step 7 - Stepper Driver Adjustment 24:42 Groups.io and Outro 46:46 The Enclosure & Cooling0 49:43 Outro See my other videos for all my DIY / Cheap / Budget Astronomy and astrophotograhy content.
