TUTO VIDEO [English SUB] : an original timer, so I said to myself : R2D2 !!

It displays the time wich is connected to wi .

Behind you'll nd a rotary button to set the timer.

BUY ALL COMPONENTS HERE : https://jeje-

Push the button to set the timer, hold it 3 seconds to

interrupt a countdown.

I wanted to make a R2D2 clock & timer cause I didn't

SIMPLE AND EFFICIENT !
have a timer in my kitchen (for my pasta) and I wanted

Step 1: Components

1x ESP32 board
1x 5v 2A power supply
R2D2 Clock & Timer: Page 1
 2x Wago terminals
1x DC2.5 connector
1x MP3 module + micro SD card
1x 40mm speaker
1x blue 7 segment display
1x rotary coder
220 ohms resistors
Led 3mm and 5mm (blue, red and white)
Super glue 3
Wires : female-female, male-male, male-female

Every components available here : https://jeje-linge.fr/pages/r2d2-bundle

Paint :

Stormhost Silver by Citadel

metal grey spray paint
Tamiya X13
Typhus Corrosion by Citadel
Agrax Earthshade by Citadel

Step 2: 3D Printing

I printed every part with PLA, in ll 20%, layer 0.2mm.

You need to use some support especially for the bottom of the body.

Step 3: Assembly

You can use super glue to assemble every part.

Check the video if you have some doubt.

Step 4: Painting

For the head you can use a "metal grey spray paint" that you can nd in every DIY shop.

For the rest check in the components list above.

Step 5: Solder Display's Pins

Solder the 4 pins provided with the blue display.

Step 6: Solder Pull Up Resistor

The rotary coder needs a pull up resistor in order to detect when you push the embedded button.

The resistor should be solder between the 3.3v and the N°27 input

R2D2 Clock & Timer: Page 5

Step 7: Solder the Speaker

Solder two wires female-male on the speaker and bend them at 90°.

Step 8: Solder the Red and White LED

Solder a 220 ohms resistor on each cathode and solder the two cathodes together.

R2D2 Clock & Timer: Page 6

Step 9: Solder Blue LEDs

Solder the two blue leds in parallel.

Step 10: Glue Speaker

Put a drop on the edge of the speaker and put inside the model

R2D2 Clock & Timer: Page 7

Step 11: Put the Connector

Connect two wires (male-male) to the connector et put it inside the model.

Normally you don't need to glue it, try just to push it.

Step 12: Wago Terminals

Connect the Wago terminals to the connector, one for the +5v (red) and one for de ground (black).

Connect 4 red wires (male-female) and 4 black wires (male-female), these will be used to supply every
module/component

Step 13: Put the Coder

Put the rotary coder in the hole behind the body.

R2D2 Clock & Timer: Page 8

You should glue it with the super glue.

Step 14: Put the Display

Put the display in the hole provided for the purpose.

Normally you don't need to glue it.

Step 15: Wiring Every Component

Follow the wiring diagram to connect every module/component

R2D2 Clock & Timer: Page 9

Step 16: Glue the Coder Button

Leave a little gap between the body and the button in order to have enough space to push the button.

Step 17: Glue Leds in the Head

R2D2 Clock & Timer: Page 10

Step 18: Upload the Code

Needed libraries :

arduino-tm1637-master
DFPlayer_Mini_Mp3_by_Makuna
DNSServer---esp32-master
EspSoftwareSerial
NTPClient
WiFiNINA_Generic

Be carefull when you put everything inside the model, because some wires can unplug.

Step 21: You Made It !

Nice

So well done - thanks for sharing all the files :D
