# Flash light / alarm light controller
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
This app controls a turning flash light by controlling a motor driver. This could be used as a generic motor driver app as well, but so far it isn't. ;-)
|
|
|
|
Hardware used:
|
|
- Wemos ESP8266 (any should work)
|
|
- Wemos Motor Driver
|
|
|
|
Be aware, that the Wemos Motor Driver is delivered with a software bug, that stalls the driver, after which it does not accept any further commands until it is reset again. You may fix this by applying a software update to the Motor Driver board, see https://hackaday.io/project/18439-motor-shield-reprogramming or https://oberguru.net/elektronik/wemos/wemos-motor-shield.html.
|
|
Nevertheless, this software has been changed to cope with the bug, thus it should work even with the buggy firmware installed.
