The Home Automation System Control is composed of:

  • a central processing unit, which deals with sending and receiving data from all peripheral cards, as well as deciding on the actions to be taken, with also the connection to the internet for remote control;
  • a complete and functional management software, installed in the central processing unit;
  • a communication bus, with secure protocol in terms of reliability, coverable distance and also speed of transfer of information from the zones;
  • a zone module for each room, corridor and also for the components to be automated inside the building;
  • a power supply with un continuitàs supply to ensure the operation of the system and safety even in the absence of mains voltage.

Home Automation Control Home, functionality

Several functions are integrated into the Control Casa home automation system, for example:

  • security, by means of advanced anti-theft devices;
  • automatic verification of the plant;
  • control of water, gas leaks and alarm;
  • control lights and dimmers for brightness adjustment;
  • control of sockets and loads;
  • energy-saving sensors, power measurement;
  • audio system;
  • TV control;
  • fragrance diffuser control;
  • advanced control of kitchen and bathroom;
  • remote assistance and customizations;
  • control of the heating and air conditioning system;
  • remote opening and verification of gates, gates and gates;
  • control and automation of roller shutters and curtains;
  • advanced automatic irrigation;
  • connection to online weather service;
  • activities, programs, scenarios, timers and reaction to settable events.

Control Casa and Control Manager, the project

The Project of Control Casa and Control Manager, very interesting, is multidisciplinary: it ranges between electronics, computer science, firmware and software programming, physical layouts, servers and web apps.

Zone electronic boards, design of the wiring diagram and unraveling of printed circuit boards, with the following characteristics:

  • central microprocessor;
  • power stage;
  • bus port RS485, UART;
  • analog inputs for sensors;
  • digital inputs, for sensors and also for buttons;
  • output relay;
  • Status LED.

Microprocessor firmware: development of all the functions necessary to operate all the components of the circuits, implementation of communication protocols and also programming of the functions for the end user.

Central processing unit software: programming of all the features of the local control panel for the management of modules, events, timers and also of all the advanced features.

Software remoto per server: programming of all the functions of the remote web app, accessible from any internet browser and implementation of connectivity services: DDNS, Backup, SMTP for alarms, weather, etc...

Programming languages: Assembler, VB, HTML, Javascript, PHP.
