INTRODUCTION
One

can access this unit even when

he/she is not present at the place
where the system is installed.
Any
(DTMF) telephone set or handheld tone dialer may be used to send
commands to the switching unit.
The
switching unit is capable of
controlling mains, powered loads with
the aid of commands received via a
telephone.

WHAT IS DTMF ?
Dual

tone multiple frequency signaling

(DTMF).
Multiple-frequency signaling consists of a
combination
of
two
tones
with
frequencies within the speech band.
Each combination of two frequencies
representing a single digit.
The tones are in two groups : 1 Low Band
2 High
Band

SYSTEM WORKING
Dial

your number using DTMF phone or

Cell phone from anywhere in the world.
The
MCU on the interface senses
Telephone ring, Automatic telephone
pick up, and line hang up, displays
information on a 16x2 LCD module and
controls the relay switching.
After a six rings the circuit lifts the
receiver and sends an acknowledgement
tone to signal to the caller that a sixdigit password number is to be entered.

Enter the password.

When the password has been incorrectly entered four times in

a row, the interface an error sound is produced and the
receiver replaced on-hook this function thwarts any attempt
by 'hackers' to quickly try a large number of codes in a
sequence.

If password is correct enter in to the main menu .

ICS USED
AT89CXXX

Microcontroller

AT89C51 is a low-power, high-performance

CMOS 8-bit microcomputer with 4K bytes of
Flash programmable and erasable read only
memory (PEROM).

LM 7805
Used to make the stable voltage of +5v
for Microcontroller .

MT 8870 (DTMF DECORDER)

Complete DTMF receiver integrating both the band

split filter and digital decoder functions.

Decoder uses digital counting techniques to detect

and decode all 16 DTMF tone pairs into a 4-bit code.

MC T2E/4N35 (RING DETECTOR)

It is used for ring detection .
MCT2E series opt isolators consist of a gallium
arsenide
infrared emitting Diode driving a silicon photo
transistor
in a 6-pin dual in line package.

FLASH EEPROM AT24C04

AT24C04 are 4K bit electrically erasable programmable
memories , Organize as 2 blocks of 256 * 8 bits.
They are manufactured in SGS-THOMSONs HiEndurance
Advanced CMOS technology .

LCD MODULE (16X2 LINE LCD)

SPDT RELAY 12V

It is used for switching (Turn ON/OFF) the device
connected to it.

APPLICATIONS
Wide

range of applications in various

fields
Household applications
Industrial applications
Office applications
Institutional applications
Telephone answering machine
Interactive voice response
system(IVRS)

MERITS
No distance
limitation.
Instant switching
without any delay.
Use less components
and power
consumption is low.
Its cost is very less.
It cannot be misused
unless any other
person knows the
code.

&

DEMERITS

The unit cannot be

accessed when the
phone is dead.
It is only used on
phones having DTMF
dialing facilities.
The wiring becomes
complex and costly.

FEATURES OF TCS

Easy availability : The components is used in

the circuit are easily available in the market.

Flexibility : micro-controller offers lot of

flexibility to the programmer for the
programming purpose.

Compatibility : This switching unit

compatible with any kind of telephone set.

Versatileness : you can access and even

connect desired no. of loads to it.

is

 Longer
Less

period of service

experience : The PCB uses circuits

that are very cheap. They are easily

accessible as their voltage & power
requirement is less.
Compactness

: The unit is much more

compact as the PCB is reduced to almost one

fourth of the original PCB.

FUTURE EXPANSION

Increasing no. of channels:

This circuit provides a facility for 8 channels.
So we can individually access each appliance
to one channel.
If this is not desired then by the use of
multiplexers and modification in the software
and using the remaining ports we increase
the no. of channels.
