Discussion

All components are hardware. Here we will discus their design and design considerations.

Overview of the components

Component	Function	Status
MainPower	Supply the net with 48V=/1A of power.	In design
MiniPower	Transform 48V= to 5V=/0.5A for local use.	Prototype working
ActController	Receive commands from the net to activate four actuator nodes.	Prototype working
SenseController	Sends commands to the net from one sensor node.	Prototype working
DimNode	Control a lightbulb's intensity (2A max).	Prototype working
SwitchNode	Switch on/off a 230V device (2A max).	Prototype working
RelayNode	Switch on/off a 10-230V device (4A max).	Prototype working
RotaryNode	Give instructions to the system by rotating a wheel	Prototype working
TouchNode	Give instructions to the system by waving your hand	In design
HubController	Split the network into six subnets	In design
AccessController	Access the system to reconfigure	In design
GlassNode	Detection unit to determine the breaking of a window.	Planned
WaterNode	Detection unit to determine water somewhere.	Planned
DoorNode	Detection unit to determine if a door has opened	Planned
HeaterNode	Switch on/off a (central)heater in some room.	Planned
ClockNode	Works as alarm clock and message display.	Planned
FireNode	Detects smoke in house.	Planned

Circuit diagrams

Below please find the first circuit diagrams. They are not entirely up to date, but give an impression how the stuff is working. As soon as possible I will update them.
