Step 1: Components

wemos d1

servo motor

7805 voltage regulator

two metal rods.

Software:

Cayenne app on smartphone.

arduino ide

Step 2: Circuit Diagram

the gpio 4 pin of wemos d1 module is connected to control pin of the sero motor.

Step 3: Connect Wemos to Cayenne and Upload Sketch to Arduino Ide

connect the wemos to the cayenne and it will receive a authentication code.

add the authentication code, wifi ssid name and password into the arduino code and upload the code.

once the code is uploaded, the cayenne dashboard will be seen .

add a custom widget slider with servo virtual pin 1 and servo digital pin 4. set slider minimum to 0 and maximum position to 0.

add a generic output actuator with virtual pin 0.

Step 4: Add Slider and Button in Cayenne Dashboard

add a custom widget slider with servo virtual pin 1 and servo digital pin 4. set slider minimum to 0 and maximum position to 0.

add a generic output actuator with virtual pin 0.

Step 5: Trigger

two triggers are set:
