A dream school project: control one or more cctv cameras with only a arduino

A short log for exposing a main problem: the rx pair of cable have too much noise (the ones that comes from the camera)

To be precise when I input a command for the camera, it drives the motor and just after I call a query for the pan position but the motor has just been driven so the cable have too much noise leading to incomplete result on my esp.

If I don't run the motor it works fine but there is still too much noise:

I know that rs485 work with voltage potential so I know that the cables at school are all the same so there is no ground connection on the cable and I won't make one for now.

So what I need to do here is to find a solution with the modules.

See you next time !

Little update: I have ordered 5 rs485 modules from amazon, it'll be there the 16/02, so the software and hardware will wait :(
