[PIC] Infra red sensor based control of Stepper motor.

[Prosenjit101]

The purpose is to open or close a faucet by the application
of a stepper motor.
The stepper motor will work by receiving signals from a PIC16F877A microntroller.
This microntroller will be connected to a heat sensor.
Most probabbly a IR detector.
So i have outlined the code below.
However, the code isnt working.
And i am unable to debug.
A little guidance will be greatly appreciated.

I wish you luck with your project but would like to just suggest you should be careful to
design a "fail-safe" one - especially if using IR.
(I'd hate you to come home to a flooded house because the sun came out.... ;-) )

You will have to use Servo motor with gear box. Stepper can't be used.

This is the flow chart of my code.

 

[jayanth.devarayanadurga]

Use high torque bidirectional DC motor with gear box.
