This is a new project I'm starting. I want to control
the electrical power of all computers and peripherials I'm using.
It will have 3x 68HC11 organized as follows:
- A first 68HC11 directly manages 8-triacs to control
the mains of the local computers and peripherals (PC, screen,
printer, scanner, modem, ...). It is directly connected
to the 220V mains. It communicates with main 68HC11 using the
serial line (opto-isolated). The program will be in the 512-byte
EEProm.
- A second 68HC11 controls the remote pheripherals. It is intended
to control the mains of a Sun3, a remote PC server, a noisy hard
disk, ... (well, few noisy boxes). It communicates with the main
68HC11 using the SPI.
- The third 68HC11 controls everything and gives orders to the
above. It is connected to the local PC using the serial line.
For the user interface, I'm thinking about the
Touch LCD Panel.
In addition to these, 4 separate 9V supplies will be available.
Two of them will be used for power supply of my
Axiom Manufacturing boards.
