The one HW203 board can support buth mimimal and full options. This is good because you can build a minimal one now and then add an LCD or temp probe later without too much trouble *a bew firmware file would need to be uploaded to the nano),
which is a minimal solution (you can always leave off the temperature probe)
In that folder is the schematic and layout - the layout file shows how the nano and drv8825 are placed on a stripboard and connected up.. The pats file shows were these items were purchased on ebay.
If you know how to make PCB boards I would suggest the PCB board layout here https://sourceforge.net/projects/arduinofocuscontrollerpro/files/DRV8825-HW203-EAGLE%20PCB/Rev2-F_IR_BT/
Again for this Printed Circuit Board (PCB) you do not need to fit everything. You can leave off the lcd, bt etc and just go with a minimal solution (no lcd or switches or temperature probe or BT etc) but you can add them later on. Its the same as the stripbiard above but it uses a PCB.
Hope this helps
Cheers

Yes that helps alot. I have been reading your Pdf a few times now, that is the route i believe i want to take is the Minimal and upgrade in stages, but purchase all parts now. i have built a Barndoor tracker using Ardruino and a easydrv. with a stepper. i cant write but i can follow instructions,
thank you for Sharing

how do i know if a drv board is the Hw203 ?
is see several on ebay but using Hw203 to search i get nothing.
thanks
Hi dj
the HW203 refers to the latest build - it is a NANO plus a DRV8825 board. See the parts list, you will need a Nano CH340G chip and a DRV8825 driver board.

The one HW203 board can support buth mimimal and full options. This is good because you can build a minimal one now and then add an LCD or temp probe later without too much trouble *a bew firmware file would need to be uploaded to the nano),
The files are found here
https://sourceforge.net/projects/arduinofocuscontrollerpro/files/DRV8825_HW203/
There is the parts list and then 3 folders. I suggest the folder
https://sourceforge.net/projects/arduinofocuscontrollerpro/files/DRV8825_HW203/DRV8825_HW203_MT/
which is a minimal solution (you can always leave off the temperature probe)
In that folder is the schematic and layout - the layout file shows how the nano and drv8825 are placed on a stripboard and connected up.. The pats file shows were these items were purchased on ebay.
For the above HW203 build, the arduino firmware file is here
https://sourceforge.net/projects/arduinofocuscontrollerpro/files/CODE%20ARDUINO/DRV8823_HW203_MT/
The relevant pages in the pdf for this build are pg28, the schematic on pg30, and the pdf is found here
https://sourceforge.net/projects/arduinofocuscontrollerpro/files/Documentation/
If you know how to make PCB boards I would suggest the PCB board layout here
