[Contest Entry]Automated Home Security System

kpd237

Hello, I'm fairly new to micro-controller programming, but I did use the boe-bot for one of my classes. Hopefully I just bought the last Spinneret in stock.

My automated home security system will monitor and report intrusions through text messages. I plan to implement multiple sensor types, and have many wild ideas I hope I can implement.

Expect a more detailed design document soon.

Well, do to my own time management issues I haven't finished, but here is what I've got:

Sensor Schematic (if using less than 6 must be attached in order)

I owe an incredible amount of thanks (in no particular order) to:
Mike G
Beau Schwabe
Roy ELtham
Jeff Martin
Andy Lindsay
Chip Gracey
and all the others that they built on.

Sorry that I do not have more to show. Thank you for the opportunity.

In "kd_SensorArray.spin" i have trouble to compile on all the sensors routines ?


If (sensorsAttached >= 1)
setState(1,0,1,0,0,1)
sensorWait= cnt *******' FAULT give :expected operator
Waitcnt(sensorWait + 50_000)
trippedsensor[0]=ina(middlePin) *******' FAULT give :expected operator

...........

I try == and := but nothing


Thanks for help

I see your issue...your code should look like this:

If (sensorsAttached >= 1)           
    setState(1,0,1,0,0,1)
    sensorWait := cnt                   'Give a 10ms pause so pins can be set appropriately and sensor circuit can be powered
    Waitcnt(sensorWait + 50_000)
    trippedsensor[0] := ina[middlePin]   

Then it should compile. It looks like the source from the OBEX has these issues in it. It is also missing an object from Brildea.

As a note, I have a custom home alarm system originally built around a BS2p40 and a BS2 which also sends me TXT messages on status upates, but I built mine back when we were developing the PINK Module, so it uses that. I had always thought about updating the system to use a Propeller though someday.
