======Introduction======
This project details how to connect Opto-Isolated Relay Board to an AVR development board and control it via Text message (SMS)

BASCOM :-) [[smsrelaycontrollersource|Source Code]]


=====What is needed=====

^ Hardware ^ Description ^
| {{devbrd.gif}} | **Atmel AVR Microcontroller Development System**\\ This kit was kindly provided to me by the friendly people over at http://www.btinternet.com/~e2one/avrbrd/ |
| {{lcd8x24.gif}} | **8x24 LCD Display** \\ Details of how to wire up a 8x24 display to the development board can be found at http://www.btinternet.com/~e2one/avrbrd/ (see the 8x24 LCD Project). If you use a smaller display then you will have to modifying the code to suit. |
| {{relay4.jpg}} | **Relay board**\\ Opto-Isolated Relay Board, includes 4 channels for remote control of Mains appliances and circuits. Ideal for home control and industrial applications. Each channel is controlled by a TTL input and can easily be controlled by a microcontroller or control system.\\ {{atmel:et-opto_relay4_manual.pdf}} |
| {{relaycable.jpg}} | **Relay cable **\\ Cable to wire the AVR board to the relay board |
| {{7110_main.gif}} | **A mobile phone** \\ I used a NOKIA 7110 but any phone that has a built in modem should be ok. |
| {{dlr3.gif}} | **A DLR-3 cable **\\ A phone connector wired to a DB9-F\\  If you don't have one or you can't afford to buy it then there are some good solutions for [[http://www.atrox.at/datacable/dlr3/|making your own]]. |

====The Software====

As the ATMEL AT90S2313 only has 2k of code space the demo version of BASCOM can be used without hitting any of its restrictions.\\

=====RS232 madness=====
A great site for the wiring of all things RS232 can found at http://www.lammertbies.nl/comm/cable/RS-232.html

**9 Pin Connector on a DTE device (Phone connection)**

^ Pin Number ^ Direction of signal: ^
|1 |Carrier Detect (CD) (from DCE) Incoming signal from a modem |
|2 |Received Data (RD) Incoming Data from a DCE |
|3 |Transmitted Data (TD) Outgoing Data to a DCE |
|4 |Data Terminal Ready (DTR) Outgoing handshaking signal |
|5 |Signal Ground Common reference voltage |
|6 |Data Set Ready (DSR) Incoming handshaking signal |
|7 |Request To Send (RTS) Outgoing flow control signal |
|8 |Clear To Send (CTS) Incoming flow control signal |
|9 |Ring Indicator (RI) (from DCE) Incoming signal from a modem |




====Phone Connector====

**Nokia 7110 DLR-3**
^ Pin ^ Signal ^ Specs ^
|1 |V In | 0..8.5V, 0..850mA |
|2 |Chrg Control | PWM, 32..37 Hz, 1..99% |
|3 |XMic / Device Selector | |
|4 |SGnd / DLR-3 VCC | 3.3 V  |
|5 |XEar / DLR-3 RTS | |
|6 |MBus | 9600bps |
|7 |FBus Rx / Modem | 9600 - 230.400 bps\\ < 0.8V : '0'\\ > 2.0V : '1'  |
|8 |FBus Tx / Modem | 9600 - 230.400 bps\\ < 0.8V : '0' @ max. 4mA > 1.7V : '1' @ max. 4mA  |

====Inside the AVR cable====
The standard cable that is supplied with the AVR development kit uses a 3 pin configuration for RS232 data. It is wired as a DTE with built in loop back handshaking.

**AVR RS232 DB9 wiring**
The DLR-3 cable expects partial handshaking from a DCE. The problem is the AVR board does not implement any hardware handshaking and is wired as a DTE.


====AVR/DLR-3 cable====
To overcome this problem we will build a new cable. This will be wired so that the AVR board is seen as DCE, additionally it will also have a hardwired active DTR signal.

^AVR board IDC ^Connector ^ Function ^
|1 |5 |Signal ground |
|2 |3 |Tx -> Rx |
|3 |2 |Rx -> Tx |
|4 |4 |Vcc -> DTR |

{{ db9_avr_photo.jpg }}

The purpose of this null modem cable is to make the phone think there is a DCE device listening


====Relay Cable====
It's a bit annoying that the Schematic for the development board does not match those on the board. Each pin is swapped for the wiring of the LCD.
{{ relaycable.jpg }}
<note warning>
Schematic for the AVR board does not align with the actual hardware.
</note>

So to wire a suitable cable the following mapping can be used
^LCD Board ^6 Pin IDC ^
|1 |Vcc |
|3 |Out0 - PB2 |
|5 |Out1 - PB3 |
|12| Out2 - PB4 |
|13| Out3 - PB7 |
|8 |Gnd |
