The Blinds Actuator Node is actuator node for NEMA17 style steppers used in 3D printers. The board based on The Button Size Node with HopeRF RFM69-HCW radio on board and Pololu DRV8824/5 Stepper driver microcontroller (EBAN-DRV8824-5)

Best suitable for automating blinds. easyBlindsActuatorNode.ino is the Arduino example sketch using MySensors 2.0 API. This is "work in progress" project although the code and the board are working nice. Will add some useful stuff like STL files for printing belt and pulley holders a bit later.

Specification:

• Dimensions 39mm x 90mm

• Supply voltage up to 9-25 Volts depends on the motor specs

• FTDI header for programming

• Any NEMA17 4-wire motor

• DIP components mostly used, suitable for DIY
