5 Digit Alarm Control keypad Circuit Diagram


This Simple 5 Digit Alarm Control keypad Circuit Diagram switch will suit the Modular Burglar Alarm circuit.However, it also has other applications. The Keypad must be the kind with a common terminal and a separate connection for each key. On a 12-key pad, look for 13 terminals. The matrix type with7 terminals will NOT do. Choose the five keys you want as your code, and connect them to `A, B, C, D & E`.

Wire the common to R1 and all the remaining keys to `F`. Because your choice can include the non-numeric symbols, almost 100 000different codes are available. The Alarm is set using the first four of your five chosen keys. When `A, B, C & D` are press edin the right order and within the time set by C1 and R2 (about10 seconds), current through R11 switches Q6 on. The relay energizes, and then holds itself on by providing base current forQ6 through R12.

The 12-volt output switches from the “off” to the “set ” terminal, and the LED lights. To switch the Alarm off again it is necessary to press A, B, C, D & E in the right order. The IC is a quad 2-input AND gate, a Cmos 4081.These gates only produce a high output when both inputs are high.Pressing `A` takes pin 1 high for a period of time set by C1 andR2. This `enables` gate 1, so that when `B` is pressed, the output at pin 3 will go high. This output does tw1o jobs. It locks itself high using R3 and it enables gate 2 by taking pin 5high.

The remaining gates operate in the same way, each locking itself on through a resistor and enabling its successor. If the correct code is entered within the time allowed, pin 10 will switch Q5 on and so connect the base of Q6 to ground. This causesQ6 to switch off and the relay to drop out. Any keys not wired to `A, B, C, D or E ` are connected to the base of Q4 byR9. Whenever one of these `wrong` keys is pressed, Q4 takes pin 1low. This removes the `enable` from gate 1, and the code entry process fails. If C, D or E is pressed out of sequence, Q1, Q2 orQ3 will also take pin 1 low, with the same result.

You can change the code by altering the keypad connections. If you make a mistake entering the code, just start again. If you need a more secure code you can use a bigger keypad with more `wrong`keys wired to `F`. A 16-key pad gives over half a million different codes. All components are shown lying flat on the board; but some are actually mounted upright. The links are bare copper wires on the component side. tw1o of the links must befitted before the IC.

A basic Arduino Solar PV Monitor

I have just recently had solar pv installed, mainly to future proof my energy costs, I do not expect it to be like drilling for oil in my back garden, however the return looks to be encouraging. The install gives you another single unit meter, from this you will see the total amount the panels produce, but that is about it. I wanted to know how much the production was as it was happening, I discovered the light blinks on the front of the meter will flash 1000 times for each kWh of electricity which passes through. The rate of the flashing of the LED tells you how much power is currently passing through the meter. [ ]

Build a Key Operated Gate Locking System Circuit

This simple key-operated gate locking system allows only those persons who know the preset code to open the gate. The code is to be entered from the keypad within the preset time to operate the motor fitted in the gate. If anyone trying to open the gate presses a wrong key in the keypad, the system is disabled and, at the same time, sounds an alarm to alert you of an unauthorized entry. Figs 1 and 2 show the block and circuit diagrams of the key-operated code locking system, respectively. Connect points A, B, C, D, E, F and ground of the circuit to the respective points of the keypad. Keys S7, S16, S14 and S3 are used here for code entry, and the remaining keys are used for disabling the system. It is very important to press the keys in that order to form the code. To start the motor of the gate, press switches S7, S16, S14 and S3 sequentially. If the keys are pressed in a different order from the preset order, the system will lock automatically and the motor will not start. Fig. 1: Bl...

Apple releases TV spot for new iPods

Apple has just released a fun commercial to showcase its new line of iPod players and the various colours they come in. The TV spot titled ‘Bounce’, has a bunch of colourful iPod touch, iPod nano and iPod shuffles er…bouncing to music. With all that colour and dancing and bouncing, you may forget that Apple’s latest gen line of iPods has some other awesome features. For instance, the fifth gen iPod touch comes with Siri, 4-inch retina display and an A5 chipset. Maybe the next ad will showcase some of these features with less bouncing.link
