Modular domestic control and communication appts. - uses serially connected master/slave microcontrollers to link functional modules for security, communications and control of domestic equipment

摘要

The appts. has a central module (1) connected by a serial bus (6) to functional modules (2,3,4,5) for communications, security and surveillance, environmental control and control of domestic appliances. A master microcontroller (11) in the central module (1) communicates with slave microcontrollers (12,13,14,15) in the slave modules (2,3,4,5). Additional slave modules can be added as required for particular applications. ADVANTAGE - Domestic control and communications with improved modularity and ease of programming and control.
