ADOPTED METHODOLOGY

Planning in phases:

Before commencement of the project it was decided to plan the project in phases so the
following are the phases in which the project will be done:

The very first phase was planning the project and getting the concepts right about the project.

This involved lot of reading and understanding about the core concepts and the applications of
our project.

Getting to know about the features of various components present in the circuitry.

Learning about various softwares like keil , Eagle 4.11 etc that will be used in our project.

Procuring the various components required for the project.

Creating the PCB (printed circuit board) for our project.

Interfacing the monitoring system with PC.

Implementing the entire project.

Testing the working of the final monitoring system.

TROUBLESHOOTING AND TESTING
4.1 Problems occurs during development:-
If you wants to avoid the troubleshooting we must use new and good quality components
and 60/40 type solder. The polarity of component should be strictly observed. As follows:-
1. After verifying all the components on bread board and check the whole operation
of the circuitry.
2. After etching PCB make continuity test of all tracks if any one track is damaged
then connect it through wire.
3. After connecting project to battery make sure that supply to all sections are ok.
When power supply at any point is available. Then troubleshooting following
points:-
a) Output at pin no.3 of IC 7805.
b) Check IC 7805.
c) See the values of decoupling capacitor.
d) Check the polarity of wires connected from battery to IC 7805.
4. If output from IC 7805 is less than 5V then replace that IC.
5. Check the RF decoder IC ht12D functionality. If not works then checks values of
resistors and capacitor connected to them which provide RC time constant to the
circuit.
6. If decoder section is ok then check the microcontrollers output pins i.e. 12 to 19
and its connections i.e. VCC and GND.
7. If controller is ok then check connection between decoder and controller.
8. Then the functionality and connection of relay driver, if it is not ok then replace it.
9. The relay driver needs to be checked that whether it is heating or not if it occurs
then replace it immediately because it is shorting.
10. If all the connections and components are ok then check the battery.

5.RESULT
Upon initial inspection of the circuit operation, multiple problems were noted. The
input signal is transmitted from the rf tx but it is not detected by the receiver.
Troubleshooting of the circuit was undertaken to isolate causes of circuit failure. The original
and expected results of various components of the circuit are as follows
1) Power Supply: - The power supply is mainly used to give the regulated 5V output to all the
components. But due to interference between ground and output there is glitch in the output.
So we have used capacitor to decouple them and hence the power supply gives the 5V
regulated output.
2) RF Decoder: - The RF decoder is mainly used to decode the RF signal into its binary
equivalent. But at starting due to interference of transformer and wrong selection of resistor
and capacitor (which will decide the RC time constant which must be 30 ms or more). So by
solving above problems the RF signal can be received.
3) Microcontroller:- The microcontroller is mainly used for controlling and performing the
action of motor driver. But due to wrong selection of crystal oscillator and decoupling. The
controller time cycle is disturbed. So by using capacitor to decouple these problems are
solved.
4) Result of Debugging:- After debugging the circuits individual modules, it was found that
each of them function as were expected, and with some modifications the output of each
components is right and consistent.
