Control center in living room

Based on Raspberry Pi Zero

Clients can get infos from:

- Environment:

- Air temperature
- Aquarium-water temperature
- Relative humidity (later)

- Internal status:

- Worker info (contains toDo items)
- Pwm output stated
- IO output states

- System infos

- CPU temp
- Memory info (later if needed)
- Free space (later if needed)
- Network logs (# of connections, etc.) (later if needed)

Temperature warnings can be sent via email for multiple recipient in case of:

• temperature (in selected sensor) rises above specified limit
• temperature (in selected sensor) drops below specified limit

Temperature warning rules described in JSON file.

Client can control:

Item	Control type	Scheduled	Sensor based control	Exceptional control	Src
Airpump	On/Off	X	-	X	230VAC
Filter	On/Off	X	-	X	230VAC
Water heater	On/Off	X	X	X	230VAC
Water cooler	Gradual speed control (pwm)	X	X	X	230VAC->12VDC - 1ch pwm
Light	On/Off, 3ch RGB color	X	-	X	230VAC->12VDC - 3ch pwm

Note: System can handle further pwm output (in fact unlimited number / just depends on how much devices do you have from Serial PWM Driver).

Other outputs:

• WebUI (show temperature infos and status infos of controller peripherials)
• Temperature logs
• System logs

Used external tool(s):

• Install Apache Webserver:

sudo apt-get install apache2 -y

Deployment

• Copy content of onTarget folder to user's folder on target.
• Run deploy script (deploy.sh)
• Copy release to user's folder
• run first with run.sh with name of copied release as parameter (./run.sh t102.jar)

Wireing

Planned connection modul, to make connection clean: Note: Pi Zero has some GND and VCC pins in GPIO port, but more external module need to get power from Pi. Previously I tried to give energy for a module from output of an other, but this makes the connections complex.
So I'm planning to create a "connector" module (something like above), to make connections clean and clear.

ToDo list:

• Cleanup files for easy deployment
• Create "deploy script"
