Week 13: Complete Poster & Blog for FYP S1/2012
Week No: 13
Date: 19/4/2012
Title of Activity: Complete poster & blog for FYP S1/2012
Objective:
1) To design the poster of Machine Remote Controller.
2) To complete up the progress of blog for FYP session S1/2012
Content / Procedure :
1) Design the poster by using Microsoft Power Point.
2) The contains of poster including the brief of Machine Remote Controller ( abstract, methodology, results, analysis, conclusion and the reasons why the project did not function according to plan ).
3) Complete up the blog progress ; which is starting from Week 1 until Week 14.
Result and Analysis :
1) The poster will be used during the presentation on the Engineering's Day that will be held on 24th April 2012.
2) It also used as the ' additional method ' to explain brief & details to the assessors besides using the power point slide and prototype about what's the Machine Remote Controller about.
Conclusion :
1) It will give the easiest way to tell the readers about the Machine Remote Controller.
2) To enhance a little bit of knowledge about relationship between combination of electrical, programming and telecommunication protocol concepts.

Week 12: Troubleshoot Project
Week No: 12
Date: 13/4/2012
Title of Activity: Troubleshoot project
Objective:
1) To find out what make the project did not function like we intend it to be.
2) To repair the error that occur so our project can run smoothly.
Content / Procedure:
1) Check all the connection between the circuit
2) Check all the IC used in the circuit
3) Check power supply for main circuit and GSM modem
4) Check the load / motor
5) Check the program that we have write
Result and analysis:
1) Connection between all the circuit and between GSM modem are in good condition, there is no loose cable.
2) All the IC used in the circuit like MAX 232, ULN 2003 and PIC18F452 are in good condition, no broken pin and did not burn.
3) Power supply for the main circuit and GSM modem is also functioning because when we check the input voltage at the main circuit and the GSM modem with multimeter it shows reading.
4) When we test the motor with direct supply, it run as usual and this means it's in good condition.
5) Lastly we have to check the program that we write, because of everything in the project works properly that's mean the only thing that cause the malfunction in our project most likely because of the program.
Conclusion:
1) It is certain that the error in the project is because of the program that we write.
2) We have to check back the program that we do, because there could be some mistake at the AT command and the protocol that we used in the program.
3) It likely for us to make a mistake while writing this program because it is the first time using the AT command and the telecommunication protocol.
4) Due to lack of time, we could not found the error in the program, thus the project cannot functioning according to our plan.

Week 11: Test Programming Onto Circuitry
Week No: 11
Date: 5/4/2012
Title of Activity: Test programming onto circuitry
Objective:
1) To test the program that we have write whether it's working properly or not
2) To see if the all the circuit can interact with each other after we burn the program into IC
Content / Procedure:
1) Burn the programming that we have write into the programmable integrated circuit (PIC).
2) Insert the IC into the slot.
3) Insert the sim card that the number we have write in the program.
4) On the power supply to the main circuit and to the GSM modem.
5) Wait for 5 minute so that the system can be ready.
6) Test the project:
- send short massage service (SMS) to the number that we have assign
- wait for report of the SMS being reply
- wait a coupe of minute for the project to respond.
- send SMS asking for the status of the load to see if the program can execute the two way communication
Result and analysis:
1) The motion sensor circuit work properly and can detect any movement within 5 meters range.
2) The current sensing circuit work properly in reading the current at the load and convert it into DC voltage.
3) The GSM modem work properly because it can receive the SMS that we send but fail to reply the message to us when we try to do the two way communication.
4) The load driving circuit did not work as we intend it to be because it not switching the load on and off.
5) The main circuit cannot be seen whether it's working or not.
Conclusion:
1) The working part of the project is like what we expected.
2) The load driving circuit is not working as we intend it to be maybe because of the main circuit did not work properly also.
3) The reason for the GSM modem did not reply the SMS when we ask for the status of the load is also because of the error at the main circuit.
4) Is is most likely that the program that we write is the cause of the problem.
